POST BUILDING

[CNCPG6490]

IM USING NX 7.5 MANUFACTURING TO PROGRAM MY HURCO MACHINES. WHEN I POST PROCESS MY PROGRAMS THE OUTPUT DATA IS SHOWING TWO TOOLS RIGHT AFTER EACH OTHER. (EXAMPLE BELOW) IDK IF IM POSTING WRONG, NOT IDENTIFYING THE TOOLS RIGHT OR HAVE A BAD POST PROCESSER? ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

There is no problem. The tool change command without M06 code is used to prepare the next tool, which will be used in the next operations, on the ATC arm. While the current tool starts machining, the next tool is taken from the magazine by the ATC arm and the tool waits for tool change to start on the ATC arm. This is done to speed up the tool changing process. If you dont have a magazine and an ATC arm, then the second tool change command without M06 code is meaningless.

MANUSpost is correct. Without a M06 on the same line the Hurco will only pre-select the next tool.

If you want to get rid of the output just delete the block containing the T-command and it will disappear from the output.
