Additional tool change for Fanuc control. Post adjustment.

[dmilichnikov]

Hello! Hope you can help! My vertical CNC Mill giving me problem with tool changer. I need add line "T16 M06" before every tool change (using empty pocket). I have to type it by hand, which takes time. I'm using standard FANUC post.

How I add "T16 M06" to post?

Thank you!

How does your code look once you've made the edits to the code?

What is the goal here; change to an empty pocket before every tool change? I don't think I've ever seen such a scenario 🤔

Hi! Thanks for working on that. 

Did you see scenario the on older milling machines double swing arm keep loosing one of the holders?))

In my case one side works perfect and other keep dropping holders on the table.

So one side need has to be empty.

Yes, I replaced arm and did adjustments.

Still got to use "T16 M06" 

The goal is:
