Hey guys i have a Topper lathe running an old fanuc o-t control.
It doesnt accept G53, only uses G28.
Is it possible to adjust the post so my tool change position is U0.0 W-8.O ( X0. Z-8.0 ), so it doesnt go all the way home each time?
I attempted to do it myself and changed the safe home position in the post, but it didnt work, just went to z-8.0 and then returned to home again.
I tried doing it in the user defined properties when posting as well, but it just posts out a 0.0
While im at it, I'll throw one more question in the loop.
I have a 12" chuck on the lathe, its oversized for the machine, so i cant ramp up from a dead stop.
Ive gotten around this by inputting a small manual pass through at the front of my program that ramps up slowly to speed. Not sure if there is a different solution, if that something that can be done in the post or not.
Appreciate your guys help or input.
