Index B-axis to 45°, but not rotate coordinates.

Hi! (Using Mazatrol) So I have a situation where I have to index the B axis to 45° and mill a slot perpendicular to the Z axis at B0°. However, the machine automatically uses G68 to line up with the tool at a given angle. So, I want to negate this effect so that I can program easier. As of...

Explain modified flank indeed threading

So I have a little difficulty visualizing what's actually happening here with a cnc machine. Is the Z starting point of the threading cycle starting further in each time so that the back edge gets clearence after the initial cut?

Integrex B-Axis center of rotation (E-410)

Hello! So we are trying to adjust the rotation center because Z0 is different in B0 vs B90 by 0.2mm. I know you adjust by manipulating BA61 and BA62 parameters. But how do you go about in getting the right amount to shift in each parameter? We have two indicators set up to Zero in both axis in...

Tool path check excluding noseR.

Hello, (Edit: it’s a Matrix 2 control) So on the tool path check the machine excludes the nose radius of our tools from the programmed value in the position display. So for example Z2.0 in the program Will read as Z1.6 in the position display during tpc if using a tool with nose radius 0.4...

C axis interpolation accuracy (INTEGREX)

So we have a few jobs coming up that will require milling in XC plane with pretty close accuracy. I have tested the geometric accuracy in the past by milling a circle (boss) on our machines. And the boss would then have diffierent radius all around it, afair it would be out of round by up to...

Decelerate spindle start? (E-670)

So we think the turning spindle climbs up to max rpm way too fast, and I have looked for a way to slow it down to no avail. No regular parameter controlls this afaik, and my knowledge about 1131 parameters is lacking. Does anyone know how to do it? And - is it possible to find a list of those...

How do you calculate this?

So I want to know how to calculate the distance from the center perpendicular to the plane that is 40 degrees from centerline. The computer tells me it's approx 61.799 mm, but I'd really like to know how to it by hand. Hopefully someone can help :) Edit: oops sorry about the sketch there

Mazak Matrix2: Automatic tool length measurement

Hello, As far as I know, the purpose of G136 macro cycle is mainly to detect tool breakage and if so larm and stop the program. But I'm looking to update tool length in Mazatrol tool data by measuring against the tool eye using a macro. I can't find any way though to start the "tool measuring"...

Mazak Tool eye measuring error B axis

Hi guys! So we resently got a E-670HII machine at the shop and we are working on getting everything trued up and so on at the moment. One thing we discovered that we just can't figure out is that when we try to measure tools using the tool eye with B axis at 0 degrees, the measurement is off...

Calculating centre of radius

So I got this part I'm supposed to make, but the drawing is missing some information, Which I don't know how to calculate. Maybe you guys can help me out, if it's even possible.. I need to know the starting point of the Z axis for the 8 mm radius, and since the radius centre isn't in between...
