4.Manual operation

4.1 Returning to home point manually

CNC machine has special mechanical position, which is called as home point and for tool exchange and coordinates setting. Generally, after power on the tool should be moved to the home point. This operation is also called as go home operation, which will make the CNC system confirm the origin of machine.

The home operation includes program and mechanical mode:

For program home, the action completes when the coordinates of machine are 0, and won‘t check whether home sensors are at position or not;

For mechanical home, the external home sensors are used to locate the origin of the machine ; two checking modes are available:

With the external sensor switch, the go home operation completed when the sensor sensing is successful

The external sensors are used as deceleration switch, the servo home is enabled as home signal after sensed and then stop

You can set the ―Home mode‖ in [Parameter][General], in which 0 (default) indicates program and 1 indicates mechanical. You can also press [SBK] key in home mode to switch among ―Mechanical – Program – Mechanical…‖ quickly. This method doesn‘t conflict with parameter setting.servo home as the home signal, you need to set ―Axis phase Z home enable‖ to ―1‖ in [Parameter][Axis] in mechanical home mode, and the setting will take effect in next home checking.

Several methods are available for tool returning to reference point and the steps as follow:

Each axis returns to home point separately

Press the mode switch key [Home] to select home operation;

Press the composite key [X-], [Y-], [Z-], [A-],[ B-],[C-] at the numbers section to return the corresponding axis to

reference point.

All axis return to reference point simultaneously

Press the mode switch key [Home] to select home operation;

Press the [Start] key ,after Z axis return to home point, then other axis return to hoime point simultaneously. The

automatic home sequence can be configured in the parameters.

Reset machine tool position

11

ADTECH 4 series CNC System (maintainance Manual)

Press the mode switch key [Home] to select home operation;

In [Absolute Position] and [Coordinate System] screen, press [X], [Y], [Z], [A],[ B],[C]respectively to show the value

of corresponding axis position, and then press the [Cancel] key to reset the machine position of current axis, i.e.

current positions are used as machine origin position. After this operation, the system considers it as a home action.

Therefore, when the program is running, the alarm of not home won‘t occur. If you press by mistake, it will switch

the screen and cancel selection automatically.

Reset relative position manually

Press the mode switch key [Manual] to select manual operation;

In [Relative Position] and [Coordinate System] screen, press [X], [Y], [Z], [A] ,[ B],[C] respectively to show the

value of corresponding axis, and then press the [Cancel] key to reset the relative position of current axis.

Note

The tool also can return to home point according to program instruction, i.e. returning tohome point automatically.

Caution:

General ly, the system should do go home operation after power on. If the power off while the machine is working, the

controller also will return to home point when the power on again. So Return to Z axis firstly for preventing tool and workpiece

from colliding and damaging them

.

ADTECH 4 series CNC System (maintainance Manual)

4.2 JOG Function

Press the keys on the operation panel or handwheel to move the tool along every axis.

The operation follows:

Press the mode switch key [Manual] to select manual operation;

Press composite keys [X+], [X-]; [Y+], [Y-]; [Z+], [Z-]; [A+], [A-] [B+], [B-]; [C+], [C-] in numbers area to move the tool along selected axis. The keypad follows:

In Jog mode, 5# key can be used to switch the Jog speed and rapid move speed. The rapid move speed of each axis depends on General parameter 009-012 (fastspeed setting). After switching to rapid move speed, the Jog speed of the position interface will be highlighted, while the actual speed of the position interface is sampled from the moving speed of current axis. This value can truly reflect the moving speed of current axis (unit: mm/min);

Note

Only single axis motion is available at Jog mode.

4.3 Single step

Single step mode is similar to Jog mode, the operations are same, but only moves a specified pulse increment every time when press the key.

The operation as follows:

Press the mode switch key [MPG/ step] (this key is composite, and you can press it repeatedly to switch the modes) to select the single step operation;

Press composite keys [X+], [X-]; [Y+], [Y-]; [Z+], [Z-]; [A+], [A-] [B+], [B-]; [C+], [C-]in numbers area to move the tool for a fixed distance via the selected axis. This distance is controlled by four rates (1.000, 0.100, 0.010, 0.001) (unit: mm). To select pulse increment, press Up (+) and Down (-) key in the [Position] interface

4.4MPG

In MPG mode, rotate the handwheel to make the machine perform single step or continuous motion. Determine the feed by testing the handwheel signal of the handheld box. In MPG mode, the feeding axis and feeding unit are determined by the axis selection signal of the handheld box.

The MPG feeding step follows:

Press the mode switch key [MPG/ step] to select MPG operation;

Rotate the switch on the handwheel to select axis (X, Y, Z, A,B,C);

13

ADTECH 4 series CNC System (maintainance Manual)

Rotate the increment switch on the handwheel to select the moving amount (0.1, 0.01, 0.001);

Rotate the handwheel to move the machine. The tool moves certain distance acoording to the handwheel scale setting. (For example, if you select X axis in step and select 0.01 in step , the tool moves 0.01mm every scale). Rotate the handwheel continuously to move each axis continuously.

Note

The MPG mode controls only one axis every time; the faster the handwheel rotates, the faster the machine tool moves.

4.5 Manual auxiliary function operation
