Carousel Atc axis

Postby b57378 » Sat Jun 11, 2022 5:41 pm

Hi all, looking for some advice

I am using an Atc with the C axis enabled for tool positioning.

This axis has to be enabled for the M6 macro - one issue is since it's enabled, it will return to zero with other axes which isn't really a big issue but slows the other axes down when returning.

Is there any simple solution to this?

Thanks

Try editing the M204 macro.

When using a rotary axis on the carousel you do not code it in conjunction with the XYZ axis. You code it as a seperate move.

G1 C30 F50
