Need Help!- Mori NZT3Y3 2000 Sub. Program for bar feeder

[tejano4life72]

Good morning everybody. We have a bar loader with the machine and I need help on where or what will go in front of the /M98 P#####. Does it go on all three heads or just on Head one and Head two? At the beging or at the end of the program. I program Citizen swiss style lathe, and on them it will be towards the end of the program on $1 it will be
M8
M8
/M98P8000(the P will be what the bar sub program name)
M9
M9

But the Mori is a new machine to me. I already wrote the program for it and it works great. But we ran it with out the barfeeder on because I dont know where to put the /M98 and what other code I would need.

Thank you,

Ponce

Hi Ponce,

Good question. What style or make of barfeeder?

I haven't used ours yet (T2Y2) as it's still getting rebuilt from going under water the day after it was delivered!

I imagine you could keep T2 & T3 working on Spindle2 while T1 is used as the stop while feeding the bar. Whether this is the beginning, middle or end of the program is upto you.

The NZ is a pretty recent model (here in Oz at least), and would imagine you bought it new. I don't want to sound negative or unhelpful, but integrating the barfeeder to the machine should have been sorted out in the installation/training process.

Please post back here what you did to get it going
