Tried adding the H offset to the table to see if that would make a difference.

I am an engineer with very little programming knowledge (I ran a CNC lathe for about a year a few years ago which had me toying with MasterCAM a little bit).

I am trying to figure out how our shop can use their current probes (Renishaw MP700) on the older (early 2000s) Johnford CNC mills with Fanuc controls I have put a list of the specific machines down below incase that matters, from what I was told this singular post worked for all the machines though.

The former programmer had some custom written macros that are lostbroken but from I gather he was outputting probing programs from Catia than into NCL Than maybe a macro or 2 From there the machines would probe and spit out a text file of XYZ locations to determine how far off the points were from actual picking point on a 3D contour.

Dprint In Fanuc How To Post A

Without reverting too much to the old way I am trying to figure out how to post a working Inspect Surface program from Fusion 360 for use to use.

We only make one off parts so it would be great if its quick and easy to click a few spots, post it than have usable results of where we are at.

Other than the fact that I know the machine and probe combos that we have, I also have some random Renishaw marco files and a sample of an old program that worked from probing.

I am hoping someone can work this out from there Please bare with me and I will try to get any questions ironed out but I am running out of luck with Google on this one.

Your calibration program O100 calls tool length correction number 15 (G43 H15) and this number should be used as a tool number in your Fusion Project.

Anyway program O100 is only radius and XY offset calibration, to calibrate probe length you should call macro 9801.

I will get this info to the guy on the floor helping me with this.

If he hasnt left for the day I will get back to you soon, if he has than I will reach out Monday.

So it depends on who is using the machine on if they use the tool table.

When tools are hand loaded, they call up the tool number in MDI as needed.

Dprint In Fanuc Code In MDI

We ran that code in MDI, it didnt alarm but it also didnt seem to do anything.

Lastly, the tool table only goes from 1 to 99 on the machine we had just looked at.

He said we compensate length of the tool via G54 and when the tool wears we offset our G54.

Sounds like that isnt a great approach, but for what its worth we only ever machine a part once, we never run multiple of anything as we are a tooling shop (and none of our tool changers work).

The probe is calibrated, we just reran the calibration on the cal.
