Hi All !

I am using NC post processor of WF 2.0.The default machine has X-Positive upward and Z-Positive to the left.
Machine i am working on has X-Positive downward on contrary, which disturb a lot in case of G02/G03 or G12/G13. CW interpolation becomes CCW .
Please help to change direction of X-axis
 
Hi Mechanizer,
Change the X multiplier in OFG to a -1.000000. This is in the translation section of the post processor generator. All X,Z values are multiplied by this value before output to the tape file from the NCL.
This will work ONLY if all mfg sequences are created on the X+ side of the CL inside Pro-Man.
Hope this help.


Jay.
