Cutter compensation, Fanuc controller tools offset in radius

[schouten323]

Hi,

What is the solution for the following situation.

Fanuc controller tool offset is set in radius.

Post processor Fanuc milling, generic.

Description: When executing the NC tool is away (far away) from the part.

Thanks

How far away is the tool from the part? Do you have any images or files you can share that give us more information as to what is occurring?

Hi,

Below file link:

and the  NC.

Mesage on controller is INTERFERENCE in G41/G42

The file you shared has no Setups or toolpaths associated with it. Please save your file and share again.

My first suggestion (without seeing the file with toolpaths applied) is to set your Minimum Cutting Radius to zero, but insure that your Compensation Radius Allowance is a non-zero (and positive) value.

Hmm, still not seeing the toolpaths 😕

[schouten323]

the toopath is Setup 2/Circular3(3)(FREES-10MM)

Here's what I see when I open the latest file you shared:

 

Would you be able to share the actual Fusion file here?
File > Export > Save to local folder, return to thread and attach the .f3d/.f3z file in your reply.

Attached files.

Thanks

Ok, that's helpful, thanks. As you're using the Circular toolpath, there are less options exposed to users than what the 2D Contour toolpath would have.

You're using "Wear" compensation, so there really shouldn't be a problem here. Can you confirm that you have zero data in the radius/diameter offset for T16?

If you wanna use Radius, you should use Compensation Type "In control"

Hi,

Thanks for advice. Is working with In Control.
