Need to take half the gap you found in Y from A90 to A-90 to get the proper Z axis shift. Also, most machines do not have a full +-90 on the A/B tilt axis. There are still ways to find MRZP though, just need to be clever about it.
Makes sense, also note you can indicate the A axis laying down and then add or subtract to get taper out of a part that is done mostly laying down while being machined, as the 90 degree is not always a true 90 degree movement on some systems or if its just to account for slop in the table. Cause I've seen how sloppy a tr160 can get and still run day in and out, clapped out is an understatement.
Those +2 attachments on haas machines are garbage...at least the non-trunnion type / single sided unit...like the TRT160. I've been using one for almost 4 years now and it's never produced better than .0015" tolerance. And, haas techs and many other users have said the same thing. It's fine if you use it for workholding and re origin your part every time you move it, but forget about running a full 5 axis routine and getting any kind of accuracy. Perhaps a full trunnion is better...I wouldn't know.
I'm confused about setting A axis with part zero set. It seems you are working with a B and C axis. Is this protocol to cover the event of a trunnion setup 90 degrees rotated?
You would have saved me from so many headaches if I saw this two years ago. Haha great video by the way.

Thanks, that makes it a little clearer.

Ya this video was awesome. Trying to figure out our haas tr100 at my school.
set up videos are great! thanks!
Thanks for the video.
AWESOME!
Thank you sir

very informative !! Thank you !
Way big reunion for the vf2

How to take zero for z, x and y axis
Please more explain

It is actually A C. Remember that X, Y, Z relates to A, B, C.
not all trunnions can sweep +/- 90 degrees.

Grand Prairie Texas or Alberta Canada? im in Grande Prairie Alberta Canada
Texas
@@grandprairiecnc4159 aww shoot, looks like a great class you are giving! little to far away for me tho!
hello from your twin city in canada!
