Hello it’s me again!
I have a St20 here with a C axis and powered tools. Today I wanted to mill a simple cone (19x19) onto the plane surface with G112.
I entered the coordinates, selected the C axis and it started. It milled- but what?? All 4 straights had a kind of belly, looks like a crackly radius. Can anybody tell me what that’s for? Does it has anything to do with the tool. Where is the 0 with a vdi revolver and with a radial powered tool and what cut position do I have to enter into the too list`
For the middle of the powered tools you should press the key F2 like the drill. That value is set in the parameter. You can check it with a gauge. The cut position is 0 and the radius of the tool is entered under radius ( if you want to use G42 / G41)
Otherwise I would ask your manufacturer/service.
