Hello
I want do a profil sequence (in turning) with a cutter compensation.
How must do that?
Tha,ks for your help.
 
Hi France,
Go to parameters and set cutter comp to Yes or On. The turret index will probably be TXXxx where XX=turret number and xx=offset number. Usually these are the same, T0101 or T1010 etc.
If you want the offset number different, set this in the parameters table also.
On a Fanuc control you will then need to set the direction to the tool nose in the tool offset table if it's newer than a 6 series. The zero series may not require this either. See Fanuc programming/operating manual.


Hope this helps,
Jay Crook.
