Hello all,
I just installed mill turn but for the life of me cannot get any of the tool offsets to work. I've duplicated the videos, read the manuals etc., but am still missing something. I first set my tool block origin using tool #1, all looks good. I set the tool offsets manually as I don't have a probe. The offsets show in the corresponding boxes /tool table etc. I have a simple program with just a few moves and 2 tools, #2 and #3. When I run the program it moves X and Z form the tool change location and does not apply/move to the tool offsets entered. I can jog to any random spot on the table and run the program, but it only moves to the tool change position. All the code runs for there and ignores any tool offsets. If fact, the Y axis never moves beyond the tool change location. Below id the posted code from InventorHSM. I am using a Mach 3 post processor I got of the InventorHSM site.
