Hi all ,

I am have an inconvenient issue using Creo Manufacturing to output lathe code to use on our Haas Lathe. Typically we keep our Haas TL1 lathe in diameter programming mode - this is the easiest to use with the conversational programming available on it. When outputting g-code from Creo, it is in radius programming. I have not been able to find a setting in Creo that would allow us to use diameters in place of radii.


The work-around that we use is changing the lathe parameters from diameter to radius (diam prog - 0). This works, but is inconvenient because it has to be switched back and forth depending on what type of code we want to run (conversational or CAM). If there was a way to fix it at the software level, that would be great.


Let me know if you have any idea.


Thanks.
