Fanuc Versa Bell 3

[Zina Perko]

Weare usually finish profiling with a tool only slightly smaller than the rad - so we'd use a 12mm cutter for a 6.5mm rad - so not a lot of tool movement, but the rad is obviously being generated. We would also be running a feed of around 40-60" for finishing.

I remember seeing in the old 21 control manual angles of bisection/how the control handles it, which seems more like this (possibly). But I didn't see these parameters in these new control manuals and may be barking up the wrong tree.

We previously played with 1768 and 1769 to get the machines sweet a few years ago. As the machines were set (factory default), they banged and shook all over the place when we first trialled G05.1 mode.

FANUC has done a poor job managing the whole AI-NANO, AI-APC, Look-Ahead, SHPCC thing. I guess in their quest to be a buffet for everyone, the number of options an combinations of options it has to be that way but sheesh...

Oh, an not that builders make it any better... We have some customers that have HPCC on Toyodas, it turns on with simply a G5P10000, then we have a customer with a a Feeler Bridge mill with it and it requires G8P1 to be activated before G5P10000. Oh, and nowhere in the documentation is it stated that you need to do that. Matsuura does it best IMHO, command an HON with your variable and whatever you have turns on regardless if it's AI-NANO I, AI-NANO II, or HPCC. no reason to not KIS.

I want to say it started out as a Yasnac thing as Matsuuras first came with them. So I guess technically would be a Siemens thing, but works on the Matsuura with FANUC as well. When you load a program with HON/HOF in it, the FANUC converts it to G131 and if you have an R,M,F,P, or D value, it will be in there as well.

@ Tim Markoski I currently run a toyoda FV1680 series machine with a fanuc 18i-MB control on it. It runs the G05.1 mode with no R value after words specifying the tolerance setting. If I do put a R value it errors out in the control as soon as it reads it. this machine does hold very tight tolerances though so I assume its set in a parameter some where to 10 being the best finish. on another note I use to run a tong tai topper qvm 1100 machine with a Fanuc 18i control at another shop that had both hpcc and aicc in the control and you coud go into the settings page by navigating your way there from the offset settings button and there was a page to change the settings in hpcc and aicc from 1 to 10 for roughing and finishing. I only used hpcc on that machine but it was yrs ago and did not know you could specify the value via the post but was a useful option when roughing. My question is what or where is the parameter setting on a Toyoda machine that specifies what R value tolerance my machine is using by default because we tried to make use of the tolerance option using different R values for roughing and finishing and basically all we can do is turn it on and off no value can be set. I assume it is at 10 being the best I think that's correct anyway on the 1-10 scale if not then vise versa..lol.. thanks for any info on this..
