[Cl...] Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I'm running a customer supplied program and every time any of the styli finish a measurement they move way back in -Y and up in Z. I thought it might be a CNC end park position. I found one and turned it off, but it still does this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[No...] Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Any PCM commands or external parameter files involved? Maybe a strategy element with a position point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Cl...] Posted July 29, 2021 Author Share Posted July 29, 2021 Please sign in to view this quote. Clearance cube is normal looking, close to the part. Program was written an O-inspect and now running on a Contura if that helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[SH...] Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Please sign in to view this quote. I experienced like this, I changed the clearance distance then it moved directly z plus. What I experienced is sensor moves to the nearest clearance plane then z plus clearance plane. Your problem might be different, just told my experience.

[Cl...] Posted July 29, 2021 Author Share Posted July 29, 2021 As a standard practice in most of my programs, I blocked XY & Z- in this one as well, after I noticed the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ro...] Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I love customer supplied programs...... Sometimes you can look at them and be like "wow, this guy is a genius, i can learn something from this person", and sometimes you can look at them and be like "This fortune 500, multinational company is letting chimps write programs, how neat".

[Br...] Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 HI CLarke, is there a swivel position programmed that could be causing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ji...] Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 You can do some tests,only select some characteristics to run. Then check if it happens again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Cl...] Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 Forgot about that. I'll have a look, thanks Bruce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Cl...] Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 Yep, that's what was causing it. Rotate/Swivel Position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
