freelancer needed to create a routine for ATC tool change (rackchange)

now, I don't know how to set the delta y for the second toolbox 4-5-6, because it has a gap between 123 456

The space between 3 and 4 do not agree to say that it is possible to divide by 111I would like all 6 tools to work, the delta between 1,2,3 is 111mm, so there is a gap, so the same delta raster between 4,5,6 is also 111mm, so the distance between 3 and 4 is 317mm...I will post the script for the first 3 tools later...if I copy and put an additional [change position delta 2]' in the ini file with ``if<current_tool GT 3>`` it doesn't work

if someone know to edit ini and rack_change.ngc files according to my y positions for tool 4,5,6 here are my files.thank you


 

The distance between 3&4 = 317 and its therefore 206mm  more than the delta. (111_206 - 306)
I think I would save this gap in the ini file as a seperate variable and calculate the tool position and do something like
#tool_pos = #<_current_tool> * #<_ini[tool_slot_delta]y>]
if #<current_tool GT 3>
  #tool_pos = #tool_pos + 206  
G53 G0 Y [#<_ini[change_position]y> + #tool_pos X [#<_ini[change_position]x>]

I'll leave it to you to sort out the syntax as gcode is not my strong point. We have postprocessors for that!

thanks Rodw, I can try ``it in the air'' but that would also be ok if I get a change for slot 4, but since slot 5 and 6 are also bigger than GT3, then I will get some other distance for 5 and 6, unless I make additional lines again, ``if GT4`` is bigger than 4, then again only delta y will work, which is 111mm?

I see you got replys already, while preparing this.  My idea to solve that, by adding the gap value for tool 4 to 6. Extend the ini entry for [TOOL_SLOT_DELTA] by y_gap, then apply that value for tool 4 to 6


in o<rack_change> sub



    
in .ini



 


Edit:

AS the 'tool_slot_delta' is always added, the 'y_gap' should be reduced by 111 to 206

thanks a lot i can try this tomorrow

.this does not work, maybe because you entered the parameters in the routine in the section of returning the current tool to its place, also o302 already exists, so I changed it to o303, but the same thing happens when selecting T4 M6(spindle goes 111mm from tool 3). you should somehow add it to the section of the file where it says ``POKUPI ALAT'',- means that is, ``selected tool'' down in routine, if you are able to edit that part. Thank you very much

I modified the routine for unload and load, o315 and o 316 used. In .ini file the value for 'y_gap' should be 206, not 317 The diff shows the modification
