I am just starting to dip my toe in the water as far as adding my probing code into my programs ( verses manually running my probe when needed )
So I just wanted to post the generic code that I will use for this operation
This will be used for an operation that always uses 1/2 inch material, and it will be setup to check the Z for G154 P1 and P2
I figured its best to ask the question now, verses after my probe has been destroyed by something I overlooked...
I've ran this code a few times with my finger on the stop several times and it seems to be working fine.
One foot note, you will notice I have the feed rate set at 100, and this was just to slow everything down during the testing...
Here is my code:
%
O01001 (Mold Prep 1)
(Using high feed G1 F500. instead of G0.)
(T5 D=0.5 CR=0. - ZMIN=-0.3 - "1/2"" Flat Endmill 4-Flute")
(T10 D=0.25 CR=0. - ZMIN=-0.06 - "1/4"" Chamfer- 90 Degree")
(T18 D=3. CR=0.015 - ZMIN=-0.007 - "3"" Shell Mill")
