Configuration
Once the end of the part is activated, the counter-spindle positions itself at a specific distance in Z4 so as to prevent the part from colliding with the fixed ejector. This position is calculated in G920 and executed in G922. Because of the large part pick-up distance, this Z4 position would be close to tools T41-T44. It is therefore likely that the part protruding from the counter-spindle will collide with these tools. (see picture) Tip 1. As there is no fixed ejector, it is possible to go back as far as the maximum rear position (Z4=100) whilst keeping the part clamped in the counter-spindle. To do this, delete the macro G922 found in operation 4:8 of the TB-001 model and reprogram the following 2 lines instead: 
Standard ISO code of operation 4:8: G52 T0 M405 (PUSH Z4,X4 M110 OR M111 BACK INTO MACRO G920 FOLLOWING THE TEST) G922 New code ISO: G52 T0 M405 G1 Z4=#24 X4=#19 G100 G1 X4=#25 G100 2. Operation 2:1 in the INIT program: Delete code M111 (opening counter-spindle clamp) 3. Regenerate the program: The following information appears during interpretation: FC1018: Part pick-up distance > 30.0000 mm! The max. Z4 < MC > position without colliding with the ejector would be Z4=63.0000 Followed by the following question: FC1020: Do you want to keep the part in the back-center? YES/NO Enter NO against this question. The part will now remain in the counter-spindle and the axis Z4 will go back to the maximum position and avoid any collisions.
