Art or anyone, I have made a switch appratus to set the tool length
within the program or through a macro. My problem is I don't know
how
to write macro's nor do I know how to set the switch settings to
get
the program to do what I want. So here goes with what I want to
achive.
At the x0.0y0.0 on my table I want to be able to have the machine
lower the tool onto the switch, move up a given amount from that
point and then automatically set the z dro to 0.0. Can this be
accomplished and if so does it need to be a macro? By doing this
the
tip of each tool will be at the same point over the table and in so
doing will make my setup time much shorter. I only run 1 part runs
at
a time and may have as many as 5-6 tool changes. Since I don't have
atc this causes quite a bit of time at the machine setting the tool
offset.
