    Forcing G43.4 (TCP) for 3+2 axis operation

    Is there a way a 5 axis UG postprocessor (for example one of those in installed machines folder) to output G43.4 instead of G68/G68.2 format ?? I know that 3+2 should be preferred (arcs, rad. comp, canned cycles) but I need the TCP output for a particular case. I have tried with choosing...

    Slightly wrong X and Y output for Fanuc OOTB Simulation PP compared to Siemens and Heidenhain

    Found a solution: In the Fanuc style PP by default "dpp_ge(sys_output_coord_mode)" is set to "TCP_FIX_MACHINE". Should be changed to "TCP_FIX_TABLE". See below:

    Slightly wrong X and Y output for Fanuc OOTB Simulation PP compared to Siemens and Heidenhain

    Colleagues, experts, I am using an NX ready PP from "installed machines" folder to create a new one for a machine with similar control and kinematic. G68.2 works fine for 3 + 2, canned cycles are OK, but X and Y coordinates after G43.4 (simultaneous 5 axis) are different from the CL file which...
