    Double NC postprocesor

    I have an error in the program after generate NC track becouse between Helikal interpolation and circular(?) 2D interpolation I have the same value of track.

    I had changed in Helikal interpolation in postprocessor to generate radius R instead IJK becouse my machine doesnt accept IJK.

    The program pass in machine only if I remove repeating track but it's not the point to correct bugs manually.

    I had trying enhance range generating of decimal numbers but it doesnt work.

    The program lap NC code:
    N86
    N87

    N693
    N694

    N246
    N247

    I put below screenshot and NC files, postprocessor, edgecam.

    Try going into code wizard, open your post, then open drop down menu for: NC Style, G-Codes and Modality, then double click to open (Modal) & checking the boxes for (X Axis Coordinates, Y Axis Coordinates and Z Axis Coordinates) to make them MODAL.
    Might need to do the same for : (Arc Radius) check box?
    Click (Apply then OK)
    Save changes & compile before closing code wizard.

    In Edgecam...
    Go to Machining Tab: Sequence & under Instructions: right click on Sequence 1 and Regenerate.
    Go to NC Code Tab: Generate NC

    See if that works for you n your machine!

    I had earlier tried to change in Modal but it didn't help.
    I have no other ideas, I have tried everything.

    Hi,
    I used your post n modified the MODAL settings, then posted & the Double G-Code was not there when creating NC file on my computer.
    See attached files.

    Modified Post...

    Re: Double NC postprocesor

    I tried also this way, tracks are not duplicated,but there are other bugs in NC code.
    There is no R character at G2 and G3 code, so error pops up.
    Look at the attachment, I I marked with a red line.
    Postprocessor doesn't work, becouse my friend didn't compile and didn't write I guess.

    Hi,
    OOOPS... I missed that part, probably getting to late in the day! At least we got the double NC lines gone.
    That post still had R modal being applied.
    I have created two more posts that you can try...
    Both are (R non-modal) but one has single quadrant applied in which will create more line code, but might work also...?
    There might still be some redundancy , but take a look n give it a try.

    What machine control are you using? Fanuc or something else?

    What version Edgecam are you using? I have V2015 R2.

    Thanks for the help.
    I did not know that you can solve this problem "single quadrant."
    I use Edgecam 2014 R1 so that's why my postprocessor didn't work.
    Now I moved to Edgecam 2016 R1 and everything works as it should.
    Thanks!
