I was wondering if this code would work. Basically I have taken a fantastic code written on here and trying to make the rough turn increase in 1.5mm steps with a half second dwell until it reaches the z end distance,
Please let me know if this makes sense or if I have just destroyed an already good god. Someone suggested a G73 which does work but will not allow the tool to move away from the part on returning to z-start
Code:
F#<rough-feed>
#<peck> = 1.5
o110 repeat[#<rough-passes>]
#1 = [#1 - #<rough-cut>]
X#1
o220 repeat[#<peck>]
G01 Z#<peck> F#<rough-feed>
G04 P500
o330 if
Z=#<z-end>
X[#1 + #<rough-cut> + 0.025]
G0 Z#<z-start>
o330 end if
o220 endrepeat
o440 if
X=<final-dia>
G0 = z#<z-start>
o440 endif
o110 endrepeat
Please let me know if this makes sense or if I have just destroyed an already good god. Someone suggested a G73 which does work but will not allow the tool to move away from the part on returning to z-start
