Hi everyone, I am having an issue with the generic Mazak mill post. I have my tapping cycles turned on to use feed per revolution and when I create the NC program, I have use pitch for tapping turned on. But when it posts it is saying this post processor does not support feed per rev. Am I doing something wrong or is it the post? If this is a common problem would anyone know what to change in the post?
Hi
I have tried this with several versions of the Mazak Post and it appears to work correctly.
What version of the Generic post are you using?
There was a new version released yesterday so it might be worth trying that.
If that still isn't working can you share a sample part that exhibits the error.
Export it from Fusion and attach to a reply here.
I am using the Mazak mill post version 44131. The feedrate is correct as far as the pitch but it refuses to insert G95 instead of G94. I know its a simple fix but something this simple should be correct.

I just tried out the code in the machine and to my surprise it seems like the G84 defaults to feed per rev without the G95 present. I used the same code I replied with, and the RPM was 1000 and the FPR .0312. While watching it the active feedrate became F31.2. I didn't know it could do this and since it did, I am not sure why fusion was giving me the alarm that says it can't support it.
