For a two axis lathe, id do the following - design two tools.

 

Say you are using a 25mm u drill

 

Program a drill cycle with the u drill (standard).

- call tool IE T0101 - set as X0 in the control geometry page etc 

- Drill to depth.

- retract.

- rapid turret home / safe index point.

 

Program a rough bore cycle starting from u drill dia.

- Design a new bore tool that reflects your u drill parameters. IE - min bore 25

- I would use a name like -  24MM 8XD U DRILL - AS BORE.

- bore curve is a line at 50mm

- use a stock bore curve is a line at 25mm dia.

- On machine use tool same tool station, different geometry / offset number IE T0121

- set /probe your u drill as a boring bar - IE probe the outside tip as you would a boring tool.

 

 

Obviously you'll have the turret retract out of the hole after drilling and go 'home' before the boring op takes place, but you could mod that on control.

 

I tend to do it that way (may not be the best way!) because it gives me decent control over both operations. 

 

 

The .png .fm file should explain more
