Could you maybe make a video (or expain it in a comment) about the Tapping Torque monitor on an Okuma lathe with live tooling. I cant seem to figure out which values go where. Especially the amount of torque.
I got a multis B250II. I'm trying to use the torque limit control on the B head to help center up the part with a dead center. It works fine on the sub spindle but not on the B axis. I would use the center on the sub spindle but I will have to dial it in every time. So I just went by load and now when I go back to my HP it throws out an alarm 1181. This has me worried. Any Ideas.
Are you using G29/G22 Z? that should work for what youre doing, but an 1181 Diff over alarm means that the machine is unable to achieve the location you've called up. Using a dead center probably isn't the best when using the torque skip. I'd suggest using a spring loaded live center instead
Great question! Yes, there is a system variable to write to the orientation parameter: VSYOF= will write from your program to the SP1-2 pickoff parameter I'm referring to. Keep in mind that the value you send will need to be in digital format (trailing 3 digits will be to the right of the decimal). For example, in order to set the variable to 90 degrees, your command line should be VSYOF=90000. If your command was simply VSYOF=90. your value will be set to .090 degrees

I'll add it to my list! Good idea

@@pocketcharleywithgosiger Yes. I'm using all those. Thanks for the tip with the spring loaded center. Oh by the way. I at home now. lol
Is there a system variable for 2nd spindle zero offset?
As you use G140 VSZOZ=10.021 for spindle 1, you can use in program G141 VSZOZ=10.999 for spindle 2
I was referring to the C zero offset parameter not the work offset.
