    Exclamation ADMAC parts programming question...

    Does anyone know how to program RADIAL live tools with this software? Never got training on how to do this. I have a profile on the face of a diameter that requires using a radial end mill to produce it. It will be a Z-X move with the C-axis rotating the part. Any help is greatly appreciated!
    The part is being machined on an LU-300MY. And I would like to do this without using Y-axis if possible...

    The LU is a disk mount (face turret). C-X axis contouring will be the process. You also have Z listed, ADMAC will only do 2d stuff. With the std turning view on the left of you screen, create and end face view on the right side. You need to add a new ref plane, something like "front face" in the name. I just cannot recall. Then you will create the process. You can auto decide it or create manually. The pdf manual in the help section named "Link_tu_tuto_e" will show how to do this on page 6-14. Sorry i no longer have ADMAC.
