Hi Micah. You could start your cycle at X-0.02" and Z0.140". Then turn, inc set the X and Z0. Then continue to program the part. When using position moves to describe the stock, inc set the X, and abs set Z0.140" (your Z start point). End cycle and "Yes" to close the cycle. That's one way, there are others. Let me know if you want the others.
Excellent video! Best tutorial i have found on the internet for the ProtoTrak lathe. thank you!
This video was very helpful. Thanks for posting.
Loved the video, wanted to ask how can I program a repeater to constantly take of material at .005 on a cylinder piece
Great video! I program CNC lathes and was looking for a good tutorial on the TRAK. Do you have any on grooving? Such as V grooves?
If i have excess material (.125) on the end of a shaft how do i program a face event to cut it to length

That would be Z0 abs set when starting.
Does any one know how to do repeat on multiple parts, with 4 tools being used ?
It only seems to let you repeat 1 tool on the screen option???
Just enter the tool # for the first event of the sub repeat - the others will follow

Sorry Anthony. The LX3 is quite old and I'm focused on our newer products. Only so much time, you know.
