Drill Cycle and Clearance Plane

Post by masterfabr »

I have a 3 hole pattern with an obstacle in the middle. Even though I set part max+ .250 for the transfer clearance I get no part max +.250 clearance. I only get R+.1 . Broken bit when it doesn't jump over the obstacle between holes. Simulation is correct but not the post.What do I do to correct the post process generator to return the Z to clearance plane between holes so it does not hit the obstacle??

In the entry/exit tab - do you have it set to transfer using the clearance plane?

Give us a clip of the code from the section in question.

99% sure . I'll double check tonite. I'll post the short code also.
