    840c hexagon milling with C-axis

    Hey!


    Is there anyone who can help me with a program example of how to mill a hexagon on a lathe. Without the Y-axis.


    My machine is a Gildemeister MF Twin 65 with SINUMERIK 840c.

    Code:
    t5 d5 ( cutter d16)
    s2=1000 m2=3 f0.12 
    r200 = 0
    g0 x50 z-10 ( start point )
    l705 (c3 on )
    n100 g0 c3=r200 (indexing r200°)
    m312 (break c3 on)
    g0 x=10 (hexagon size 20)
    g0 z-20
    g1 z-50 (hexagon length 30 )
    g0 x=50
    g0 z-10 ( start point)
    m4=313 (break c3 off)
    @714
    r200 = r200 + 60
    @124 r200 360 k-100
    l706 (c3 off)
    g0 z10
    m2= 5
    m30
