face engraving on doosan puma 280 fanuc oi

[leecoggan]

Hello im looking some help i need to engrave a simple part no on the face of a turned part in our puma 280 it has c axis on the spindle and driven tooling, we have macros that allow us to engrave on the diameter and we have done this successfully in the past, but i just cannot seem to get it to work on the front face, ive been machining for a good few years but have limited experience with macros. I was under the impression we could do the text on fusion 360 and then output it as a turn mill post but i connot find a post that works either. does anyone have a macro program or could show me an example fanuc program that might work? regards Lee

Face engraving can be done. Are you engraving on an arc, or straight across?
