We use the G26 code on our Bostomatic control to zero our new X0Y0Z0 location
after moving from one vice to the other, as it dose not have any fixture offset capabilities.
 
N23 Z2.0R
N24 XV30YV31R FROM VICE 1 TO VICE 2
N25 G91
N26 ZV34R
N27 G90
N28 G26X0.0Y0.0Z2.0
This is how we get back to VICE1 from VICE2
 
N59 Z2.0R
N60 X-V30Y-V31R FROM VICE 2 TO VICE 1
N61 G91
N62 Z-V34R
N63 G90
N64 G26X0.0Y0.0Z2.0
The variable V30 is for the x-axis, and it is the distance from one vice X0 to the other vice X0.
The variable V31 is for the y-axis, and it is the distance from one vice Y0 to the other vice Y0.
The variable V34 is for the z-axis, and it is the distance from one vice Z0 to the other vice Z0.

Have you got G10 (programmable offset) function on the control?

Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Lathe offsets

We have a Dainichi lathe with a Fanuc control 21-T.
 
I will be programming 4 different parts at one time each with a bar pull, in other words when one part is complete it gets parted off, then we send in the stock stop and pull out the required length for the next piece and so on. Because each part has a different length I would like to program each piece at "Z 0". Our control does not have the option for fixture offsets (G54-G59), which would have been easier.
Is there a solution to get each piece to have a "Z 0"
 
Thank you
