Fabr's Car-VW/busa crossbreed

[Hammerworks]

"The reason I liked to keep the H and D offsets the same as the tool # is it makes it easier to keep track of when you need to make changes."This really is the safest way to go.

Also ,in MC you can remove the block numbers,when you post.

[fabr]

Wasn't sure what CAD programm you were using and if it had a specific Fadal post. Most CAD programms come with a generic post you can customize to your liking. Memory ain't what it used to be........
 
Anybody using Mastercamm and using the Haas post can thank (or curse ) Me for that. I did the original one from their generic Fanuc post processor back in the early 90's. The Mastercamm rep borrowed it and they start including it in the package.........
 
 
30K lines of code........ I remember when we had to punch them in to a paper tape buy hand........ Things like sub programms and incremental jumps were your friends back then to keep programms short enough to fit in the machines memory.
 
The reason I liked to keep the H and D offsets the same as the tool # is it makes it easier to keep track of when you need to make changes. You might know it's like that, but the guy running the machine that day might not. Again, probably won't apply too you.

Thanks for the info. As everyone here knows,I know very little of this stuff and am just beginning to scratch the surface of the CNC world. For myself I am learning and trying to use AlibreCAM. All I've accomplished so far is CAMming one side of the cover that engineer made for me. Probably crash something if I tried to run it! It did get me what looked like good tool paths. I'm thinking of just setting up a block of poplar to run a test run with. What ya think?
 Give me a couple weeks and I think I'll be quite comfortable with it. GAWD,I hope so anyway!!!!!

If you haven't already, I still think you should write some programs by hand just to get intimate with the code.  It will help with the debugging later on.

[Doug Heim]

That is how I learned G-code. Really the best way to learn IMO. 

[fabr]

One thing at a time guys! I can only absorb so much.

[Engineer]

Waste of your time to learn G-Code Fabr.  I crack the book maybe once a year to do some thread milling.

Once you get some history with your Cam you will know that the machine will do what the dryrun says.  (As long as your post processor is GTG). 

leave your tool zero about 4" above the part and do a dryrun just to make sure it doesn't do anything funny then cut the wood.

Here is the program for the first side of the tranny cover.  About 3hrs of runtime but the program isn't that long because G-zero subroutines everything for you. 

If anybody finds any problems in the Code let me know cause I never look at it.    I just sent it to the machine and made the part.

Is M99 in your machine a pause? It is program end in my machine although I change it to M30. If I run in "memory mode", The M99 tells my machine to go back and start at the top of the program without pause. M30 alters that and just ends it point blank. I use M6 for a pause. Just curious.

I have a newbies perspective on this. It comes from the viewpoint of now and today with no previous perspective to go by.  #1,I paid good money for a CAD that is supposed to post in my machines language and prevent my having to do shit with G/M codes. Will it post the most productive/fastest code there is? I highly doubt it but I have no need for that either. Moot point to me.  #2,It is fully integrated with the CAD-same maker and so far I REALLY like that.   #3,I feel that I will possibly or even likely need to know common G and M codes to debug if needed but for no more often than I'll post anything new I doubt that I'll remember them the next time needed.   SOOOOoooooo up on the wall goes a G and M code chart that is for MY machine and it's specific use of G/M codes. Now that engineer has also indicated it works for him I feel good about my thoughts. I may well have to eat those words ,but time will decide that.
   On a side note. A lot of guys seem to hate Fadals but show me another machine that has ALL documentation for the specific machine available 20 years after it was built AND has apparently all parts readily available for it to keep it running. I have bought plenty of small and not so small parts for it rebuilding this thing.  I could not be happier with the aftermarket support.

It's going on my wall. Fadal specific.I understand some of it varies in a few places from others?

M99 returns it from a subroutine.  If you look up there is N4000 thru N4028.  Those are all subroutines with a M99 at the end that returns into the program where the subroutine was called.  The M30 is just above the first subroutine, it ends the program and returns it to the top.  I believe M31 is pause in a Hass, requires a hit of the cycle start button to continue in the program.

The subroutines are created anywhere anything is repeated.  So if you are making multiple passes to a depth it will move to z depth then call the sub.  The sub finishes by sending it back to retract heigth.  Program goes to next z dept then recalls the sub, etc, etc.  If you want to modify the profile just do it once in the subroutine.  It gets really neat when you are running multiple parts in multiple vices.  The main program is just tool calls then G54 subroutine, G55 subroutine, etc.

That will be a great reference so you know what your Cam did for you. 

I bought a new machine and a Cam package and went straight to running.  Sure I wrote some G code in college but a basic understanding of how Code works is all you need.  Learning to program G-code today would be like learning C++ so you could operate Windows.  IMO.


Yes Code varies slightly from one machine to another.

That's what I'm hoping for!

[Reidy02]

Holy shit Master did you sit there and type all that out or did ya copy and paste? Man that woulda taken some time!!

[fabr]

LOL!!! No, that's engineers work. But yes in the old days of not that long ago it would have been one line at a time. before canned cycles and such it was much worse and then before that were hand punched tapes. we have it very easy now compared to then. With CAM the software does the bulk of the work.

G13, thats circular pocket correct?
 
If you learned G-code by punching it in the crap the post processor spits out will make your skin crawl.
 
A good looking programm would start out like this.

Oh, I had to machine some MDF parts once. Took several months to get all that damn sawdust off the machine.........
