Bill, I'm posting your question on the SmartCAM list server because they may provide additional insight on work planes and your machine. In addition, since it's so rare to hear a positive comment about Gen-Mac from a SmartCAM user I thought I should share it.
As for the work plane problem, could you provide more specifics as to what code you're getting as compared to what code you desire? ============================================= Fred Lauzus, CAM Programming Coordinator High Steel Structures, Incorporated mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.highsteel.com ============================================= -----Original Message----- From: William Bedford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 22, 2001 10:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Plane Change Good Morning Fred, A few weeks ago you replied to a question about coding out plane changes using the template word #TINDX,I thought that I had defined everything as you had suggested but I still cannot get my temp file to output the correct code when I am indexing, moving to a different work co-ordinate or doing both, we are running a linear line of Mori-Seiki SH400 horizontals with B axis tombstones and 100 work co-ordinates on each machine, we machine between 1 and 32 parts on each tombstone, each part having its own work co-ordinate, I find this very frustrating as I been able to do this very easily using C-Post and Generative Machining but not with Smart Cam, any thoughts on what I am doing wrong, Regards Bill Bedford ====================================================================== To find out more about this mailing list including how to unsubscribe, send the message "info mfg-smartcam" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ======================================================================
