Difference between Mazatrol and G-codes
Hello
Thank you for entering in my post
I am totally new about Mazak Milling Machines
On the the top of the control pannel is written Mazatrol 640M, so i thought the machine works with this software with G-codes instead making some search i realised that there is a difference between Mazatrol and G-codes so probably thi Mazak machine doesn't use a Mazatrol software as it is witten on the top of the control pannel but a Fanuc software, Is it right?
any information according this matter will be very appreciated
Thank you in advance for your help

Thank you very much Ajancnc

You can use mazatrol and G codes within the same program.
Re: Difference between Mazatrol and G-codes
mazak is a good quick and easy bit of kit for milling drilling tapping bolt hole pattern and profiling, you do have the option for manual machining within the mazatrol program with limited function i use it for helical machining of large holes in solid. when i start a new program it asks me down the bottom of the screen if i want to write a Mazatrol program or a g code i think they call it iso/eia, when you look through the program list they either have a number and an M (mazak) or a number and an E eia (g code) not 100% sure if its standard or an option on the machine.....good luck with your learning you will pick it up in no time.
