4. Manual operation

4.1 Returning to reference point manually

CNC machine tool has specific mechanical position, which is called as reference point and for tool exchange and coordinates setting. Generally, when the power supply is connected, the tool should be moved to the reference point. This operation is also called as home operation, which will make the CNC system confirm the origin of machine tool.

The home operation includes program and mechanical mode:

For program home, the action completes when the coordinates of machine tool are 0, and won’t check whether origin switch is in position;

For mechanical home, the external home sensor switch is used to locate the origin of the machine tool; two checking modes are available:

With the external sensor switch, the home operation completes when the sensing is successfully repeatedly.

The external sensor switch is used as deceleration switch, the servo home is enabled as home signal after sensing and then the sensing stops.

You can set the “Home mode” in [Parameter][Comprehensive Parameter], 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. You can select accordingly. To use servo home as the home signal, you need to set “Axis phase Z home enable” to “1” in [Parameter][Axis Configuration] 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 follow:

Each axis returns to reference point separately

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

ÜPress the composite key [X-], [Y-], [Z-], [A-] in the numbers section to return the corresponding axis to reference point.

The axes return to reference point simultaneously

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

ÜPress the [Start] key to return Z axis to reference point, and other axes return to reference point simultaneously. The automatic home sequence can be configured in the parameters.

Reset machine tool position

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

ÜIn [Absolute Position] and [Coordinate System] screen, press [X], [Y], [Z], [A] respectively to show the value of corresponding axis position, and then press the [Cancel] key to reset the machine tool position of current axis, i.e. current point is used as machine tool origin. 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

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

Ü In [Relative Position] and [Coordinate System] screen, press [X], [Y], [Z], [A] respectively to show the value of corresponding axis, and then press the [Cancel] key to reset the relative position of current axis.

H Note

OThe tool also can return to reference point according to program instruction, i.e. returning to reference point automatically.

Caution:

Generally, the system will perform home operation after connecting the power supply. If the power fails while the machine tool is moving, the system also will return to reference point when the power supply is connected again. Return to Z axis to prevent tool and workpiece from colliding, and damaging tool, workpiece and clamp.

4.2 Continuous feeding manually

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-] in numbers area to move the tool along selected axis. The keypad follows:

In manual mode, 5# key can be used to switch the manual speed and rapid traverse speed. The rapid traverse speed of every axis depends on comprehensive parameter 009-012 (rapid traverse speed setting). After switching to rapid traverse speed, the manual 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 reflectHthe moving speed of current axis (unit: mm/min);

Note

Only single axis motion is available in manual mode.

4.3 Single step feeding

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

The specific operation follows:

Press the mode switch key [Handwheel/Single 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-] in numbers area to move the tool for a fixed distance along 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.

4.4 Handwheel feeding

In handwheel 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 handwheel mode, the feeding axis and feeding unit are determined by the axis selection signal of the handheld box.

The handwheel feeding step follows:

Press the mode switch key [Handwheel/Single step] to select handwheel operation; Rotate the dip switch on the handwheel to select handhweel axis (X, Y, Z, A);

Rotate the increment dip switch on the handwheel to select the moving amount (0.1, 0.01, 0.001); Rotate the handwheel to move the machine tool. The tool moves certain distance every time you rotate

the handwheel for a scale. (For example, if you select X axis in step and select 0.01 in step , the tool moves 0.01mm every scale). Rotate the handle continuously to move the machine tool on this axis continuouslyH .

Note

The handwheel feeding mode controls only one coordinate axis every time; the faster the handwheel rotates, the faster the

machine tool moves.

The tool regulator uses external sensor switch to set the reference point for axis Z, which is similar to home. After changing tool during processing or changing tool manually, transfer this function to automatically check the Z value of current workpiece’s home.

Tool regulator usage

Before using the tool regulator, you need to set the parameters. In [Coordinate] menu, press [Coordinate Parameter] to show tool setting parameters. After that, press [Tool Regulator] in the setting interface to execute the tool regulator program according to specified parameters.

The actionÜ sequence of tool regulator follows

Return Z axis to mechanical home first, and then locate principal axis to X, Y coordinates of the tool regulator;

ÜTool regulator blows to start;

ÜZ axis moves down, and retracts when touches tool regulator sensor switch, moves down at lower speed when the sensor switch leaves, records the machine tool coordinates of current Z axis when touches the switch and assigns to the Z coordinates of current selected coordinate system;

ÜTool regulator blows to turn off;

ÜZ axis returns to home position.
