New stuff

Catia PPTable

so it turns out I can modify the APT output for some commands, which had not only helped in the post processor more accurate but now I understand more stuff
so I made the PPtable and it seems to work more on that some other time

Logic

since I now know what is to be expected for some commands I was able to shave off roughly 200 lines of code which is great
COMPENSATION defines what tool correction register is being redefined, what quadrant is the cutting end, xyz corrections, and nose radius
END OF PROGRAM is now single meaning
CIRCLE output looks like this
kk("ARCH/CENTER, "+centar_x+", "+centar_y+", "+centar_z);
kk("ARCH/AXIS");
kk("ARCH/TANGENT, "+this.ls_i+", "+this.ls_j+", "+this.ls_k);
kk("ARCH/INFO, "+radius+", "+movement+", "+angle);
kk("ARCH/END, "+kraj_x+", "+kraj_y+", "+kraj_z);
CYLINDR or sinusoidal movement like this
kk("SINUS/CENTER, "+centar_x+", "+centar_y+", "+centar_z);
kk("SINUS/AXIS");
kk("SINUS/INFO, "+amplitude);
kk("SINUS/TANGENT, "+this.ls_i+", "+this.ls_j+", "+this.ls_k);
kk("SINUS/END,"+kraj_x+", "+kraj_y+", "+kraj_z);
helix (in APT)
HELICAL/CENTER, %MFG_HELICAL_X_CENTER, %MFG_HELICAL_Y_CENTER, %MFG_HELICAL_Z_CENTER
HELICAL/TANGENT, %MFG_HELICAL_INDIRV_I, %MFG_HELICAL_INDIRV_J, %MFG_HELICAL_INDIRV_K
HELICAL/AXIS, %MFG_HELICAL_I_AXIS, %MFG_HELICAL_J_AXIS, %MFG_HELICAL_K_AXIS
HELICAL/INFO, %MFG_HELICAL_PITCH, %MFG_HELICAL_RADIUS, %MFG_HELICAL_HEIGHT, %MFG_HELICAL_ROUND
HELICAL/END, %MFG_HELICAL_X_END, %MFG_HELICAL_Y_END, %MFG_HELICAL_Z_END
SPINDL is now simply defined
FEDRAT is now simply defined
COOLANT on the other hand, apparently the coolant is set while defining the tool, which i have accounted on and then just coolant on off, but it seems a bit like it doesn’t make sense that way what if different coolant is wanted??, also the actual syntacs is quite unknown for the coolant sooo yeah
DELAY is now simply defined
CYCLE now got major upgrades by manipulating the APT lost like a 75 lines of code there
spindle rotation limit is now settable
CUTCOM pensation is now uncovered but I genuenly have no idea what the stuff means NORMDS or NORMPS, maybe normal to drive / prat surface God knows the answer that I am sure

BUGS

Yes - I haven’t had a chance to test it yet so I dunno

I got the background loading path wrong so that is corrected

STUFF LEFT TO DO

Make a function for the line split into 3, 4, 5, 6
Rework G-coder to output accordingly to the reworked parser
Play with the PPTable
The rest of the TO-DO list

SUM-UP

Found out that I can modify the APT output via PPTable, made a PPTable, now I know much more about The APT, made the parser more precise and thus more correct
