…est revsion of the standard LNC post (Revision: 44168)
Updated 28-3-25 :
Enable inspection reporting check box added to probing operation post properties tab
- when checked it will add a Q1 value to that probing arguments
HSHP smoothing settings added to milling operation post properties tab
- logic yet to be added to make this work
Removed precisionLevel option that is not available to LNC6800
Probe inside corner function updated to match rev 42831 post
Updated 21-3-25:
probing output reworked to match the previous post version
- initial position moves masked with protected calls for safety in writeInitialPositioning()
- var macroCall moved to above onSection() to be available for initalPosition()
- probeOutputWorkOffset variable and code pulled from old post and placed below subprogramEnd()
- probing cycles updated to output required arguments for macros and match (rev. 42831)
- probing-xy-inner-corner information pulled from FANUC Rev. 42831
- forceXYZ() removed from most cycles to avoid a double call
- var probeOutputWorkOffset in setProbeAngle() commented out but may still be required
Updated 17-3-25:
added missing variables :
- probeOutputWorkOffset - ln. 346
***unsure of the best location
- probeWorkOffsetCode - function writeProbeCycle(cycle, x, y, z, P, F)
added logic to:
- spin on the probe at the start of any block of probing operations
- spin off the probe at the end of any block of probing operations
- force the closing section of an optional operation(s) to ensure any probe off, manual tool changes or tool break detection cycles are run.
- force any tool changes or work offsets that may have been skipped at the start of the first not optional section
*** may need to add workplanes to the above list
Added a Added a post properties option for spinning the probe on/off and selecting the corresponding M codes.
Removed "Attention- Property 'Safe Retracts' is set to 'Clearance Height" warning.
Updated 17-3-25:
updated from LNC "Syntec" rev 44145 to 44168 (latest) standard post and headder updated
Updated 16-3-25:
Added clearance height flag for less Z retraction when working on the 4th
full Z retract issued before:
any automatic tool changes
any changes of WCS
tool break control cycle
swapping a manual tool into the spindle
swapping a manual tool out of the spindle
after any optional sections to avoid the risk of a skipped full Z retract
Z retract ignored:
4th axis indexing between operations that are the same WCS and the same tool
-writeRetract(Z) commented out in two places effects need confirming are not dangerous:
1) function setWorkPlane(abc) {
//writeRetract(Z); // ln 1649
2) function positionABC(abc, force)
//writeRetract(Z); // ln 2880
- moved pre "operation-comment" code from start of onSection() into the end of onSectionEnd() for more predicable manual NC injection
- Force tool change position logic added
- Manual tool change position option and logic added
- methodXY and methodZ set to G53 and on tool change updated as currently the most reliable option for me
- Machine connection moves logic added
- Tool table layout adjusted and below holder stick out information added
- small minor changes made to formatting to aid in reliability
- overall clean up to previous updates made to stock post
- DebugByCarnie global variable switch created
Updated 8-3-25:
Added retract to clearance height option
retract.methodXY set to G53 for more predictable simulation connection moves
full retract called when changing WCS, tool change (manual and automatic) and before break detection cycles
machine simulation moves for clearance height changed for work coordinates**
** Current issue when simulating moves to different WCS issuing the wrong WCS initial position however Gcode output looks safe with a full z retract called.
- small change to manual tool removal message
Updated 7-3-25:
Added manual tool change logic to onSection() to support unloading the tool in the ATC umbrella and installing a manual tool.
extra logic to shut down coolant early to maximise drip-out time
extra info passed from fusion into comments to help the operator confirm the right tool, holder and stick out is being loaded into the spindle.
- Added a first pass at tool break control - needs testing and uses the stock Syil provided macro M106
- Removed unrequired variables from writeToolBlock()
Updated 4-3-25:
Minor UI changes to syil_lnc_toolpath.cps
- Post properties table renamed and reordered
- G30 option added to safePositionMethod()
- Tool change position added to writeToolBlock() and machine simulation details updated to allow simulation of tool change connection moves
CALIBRATEPROBERING - fixed an error in the way A arguments to PROBEXSLOT were called PROBECONFIG - changed storage offset into the range protected by the PROBECONFIG macro settings (96+) TOOLSET, CALIBRATEZ, CALIBRATEPROBERING - Minor whitespace or wording adjustment
Updates in this last batch of mods
First pass at an update to read me to account for changes I have made to the macros. A slight rearrangement of the order to walk a new user through the process of getting the probe working.
- Slight reordering to improve clarity for new users, making essential settings easier to find. - Moved gauge lengths into common offsets. - Added gauge block size for future use. CALIBRATEPROBERING - Added an override for the ring gauge A argument. ProbingConfigHelper.NC - Reordered prep list to align with a method found to be faster and more consistent. Syil_LNC_RobotOblivion - updated menu for the word results to avoid confusion with a saved or printed inspection report.
Second pass picking up a few small issues and adding a bit of colour and layout styling for ease of reading
Mcode version of the probing macros available. Rebuild probing macros to swap any arguments to their axis letter. a few small bug finds and fixes. --------------------------------------------------- Syil_LNC_RobotOblivion.cps - Logic to swap between string and number-based macro calls (line 56) - onSectionEnd() bug fix for programs that end in an optional strategy that was causing the post to fail - Probing arguments updated to match the new naming conversion. LOADTOOL - waits added to make sure the controller holds for an OK to be pressed before moving on PROBECONFIG - moved -1 tool check above tool offsets as will stop a valid tool offset from being cleared if the macro is run with -1 - added gauge block XY size inputs - added manual tool change location extended offset - global variables changed to values not used by the stock Syil macros - switch for turning off size tolerance alarms added CALIBRATEZ - Second confirmation message added to make sure the controller holds for an OK to stop an incorrect value being stored if OK is pressed before the master tool is fully gauged in on the top of the artifact. - removed [ ] around a few variable numbers - added missing # on / PROBE Z AT SLOW SPEED line build_maker_macro.py - Reorder the Mcode with numbering to aid in calling them without string names. - added a reminder to open a workspace with the top-level folder set to "Macros for Controller" - Added and ran to generate a macro_macro set of macros README.md - 3rd pass with updated arguments ChangeLog.md - updated with an overview of changes The below macros were updated to move axis arguments to letters that match the axis being called: CALIBRATEPROBEBLOCK Arguments A and B swapped to X and Z PROBEYWEB Arguments B and C swapped to Y and Z switch for turning off size tolerance alarms added PROBEXWEB Arguments B and C swapped to X and Z switch for turning off size tolerance alarms added PROBEBORE Argument B swapped to D PROBEX Argument B swapped to X PROBEXSLOT Argument B swapped to X switch for turning off size tolerance alarms added PROBEY Argument B swapped to Y PROBEYSLOT Argument B swapped to Y switch for turning off size tolerance alarms added PROBECIRCULARBOSS Arguments B and C swapped to X and Z PROBERECTANGULARBOSS Arguments B, C and D swapped to X, Y and Z PROBEPOCKET Arguments B and C swapped to X and Y PROBEZ Argument B swapped to Z TOOLSET Arguments A and B swapped to D and A PROBEOUTSIDECORNER Arguments B, C and D swapped to C, D and E PROBEINSIDECORNER Arguments C and D swapped to D and E
