YEs that's right. The spindle starts first when the tapping reaches the bottom, that's why the P word is so important for those like me that have just regular motors that cannot simply start/stop immediately. That 0.5s is just what the TC head needs to relief the tension and came out nicely.

Why make a simple thing so complicated messing with M codes and stuff? Add a P word on the G84 cycle and it's done. I use it since I put my CNCs together with the tormach tension compression chucks and it works flawlessly. Of course it's not the ideal (rigid tapping is) but It works.


Why ...

The fact that the machine stops in Z while the spindle is still at full speed or starts in Z before the spindle has started moving can't be fixed by simply pausing at the bottom of the hole. Think about it and perhaps read the thread a little more carefully, then let us know if you still don't get ...

Also I would like to see the dwell on tapping cycles.

I do modify the post myself but would be nice to have it by default

the tapping code would be like this:

getCommonCycle(x, y, z, cycle.retract),"P" + secFormat.format(P), feedOutput.format(F)

instead of this

getCommonCycle(x, y, z, cycle ...

Nice BUT you did not answered my question. How can I download the version 2 of the probe app ? Its a new purchase or is just an upgrade ?

If I have the CNC12 4.5 do I need to update may app to the 4.59 R12 to be able to use ProbeApp v2 or not ?


The ProbeApp works with CNC12 version 4.50 for Acorn.

There are also several users using the ProbeApp with CNC12 v4.16 for OAK and AllIn1DC.

Ok my situation is: I have CNC12 ...

That part was the frames.

Very nice work!
You sell them on line?

Yes I do but only on demand. usually I don't have knives ready to ship. The wait list is now 3 to 4 months.

Look at my instagram @t.rex_custom_knives

This is the knife ready.
