Probing multiple WCS from a different WCS

dbunyip — Tue, 29 Jun 2021 16:58:26 GMT

I've been looking and playing with this for a couple days now but is it possible to probe for example G55 from G54 within fusion. Basically I'm wanting to have a constant G54 on my vise and then be able to change pallets and probe the parts on the pallet using a G55. Some of my pallets have some high part counts and I'm trying to not have to hand jog around all of them to set the WCSs. The best I've been able to figure out so far in fusion got it to probe all the parts but it set G55 to the G54 value even though the probe location was way in a different place.

My machine is a HAAS with NGC if that makes any difference

I built a sub plate for my machines. The sub plate is always known and when. I simulate tool paths I move the part to where either the vice is or where the dowel pins are. Then I use a g10 list to automatically enter the G45,55,56 serf positions without having to find it every time.

The place I work at has older machines so they were spending about 30 min a set up. So after showing the difference in time they made the change.

You would probably get more views and answers to this question if you posted it to the Manufacture forum.

I'm sure someone over there has experience with what you're trying to do.
