Ok Guys, I'm completely lost. I will ask if someone can write a bit of
code to get me started. The pocket in question has been programmed and
works EXCEPT for the first corner. If I put a negative radius for the
first R word it gives a funny loopy corner, comes back to the end point
of the radius and completes the rest of the pocket just fine. I am
starting from x0y0to a pre drilled hole at x10y2, the z goes down and
mills to x8.9y3.25 then a .75 radius to x8.15y2.5, a straight cut to
x8.15y1.5 then a .75 radius to x8.9y.75 then simular to the other two
corners to return to x8.9y3.25 All co ordinants are to the outside of
the pocket.I am using a 1/2 endmill which is called out as T1 in the
tool file, am using G3 and G41 to climb mill in the corners. If some
helpful soul can write a little code to get the first corner done and I
can see my mistakes I would be grateful. After it is all figured out I
can post with the postmortem. Ain't lernin fun??? Thanks. Ed.
