    Fanuc 6t threading cycle.

    Anyone out there know the parameter change on a Fanuc 6t for the G76 threading cycle to change the retract from 45 degrees to zero. I'm threading up to a shoulder on this machine for the first time since we refurbished it.
    Thanks.

    Ok this had me baffled so I had to call Fanuc and make sure of it...
    They told me that there is NO param. that you can change for the G76 canned cycle to alter the retract angle. Thanks for the post I learned something today. :cheers:

    Thanks yall. If I happen to find anything else I'll post it up.
    Last year we refurbished another machine with a 6T that had the same problem. We got some info from someone in the Atlanta Fanuc office but I've misplaced it. I'll keep looking but thanks again for trying.

    On the 6T-B, it's Setting 064. Valid range is 0-31 (0-3.1 x lead).

    Hey dcoupar....
    I called Fanuc back and told them about Param. 064 and they are still dumbfounded about the whole thing. They say that no such param exist for that control....well all the manuals/paperwork that they have.. :stickpoke
    It was set at 0 retract on my control and I changed it just to verify and bam it worked! Oh well I guess you need to give them all of your revisions:cheers:
    Anyway Im glad that I found this out..Thanks

    I just read it in their "Fanuc System 6T-Model B Operator's Manual" (B-54024E/02) pages 158, 266, and 353.

    OK so this is the first time that I want to change a parameter and I can't figure out how. To be more precise I can't find the ENABLE / DISABLE Toggle Switch as indicated in my 6T manual.

    Can anyone help?
