MACHINE SAFETY
It is up to the machine manufacturer to make su re that the safety of the machine is enabled in order to prevent personal injury and damage to the CNC or to the products connected to it. On start-up and while validating CNC parameters, it checks the status of t he following safety elements. If any of them is disabled, the CNC shows a warning message.
• Feedback alarm for analog axes.
• Software limits for analog and sercos linear axes.
• Following error monitoring for analog and sercos axes (except the spindle) both at the CNC and at the drives.
• Tendency test on analog axes.
FAGOR AUTOMATION shall no t be held responsible for any personal injuries or physical damage cause d or suffered by the CNC resulting from any of the safety elements being disabled.
HARDWARE EXPANSIONS
FAGOR AUTOMATION shall no t be held responsible for any personal injuries or physical damage caused or suffered by the CNC resulting from any hardware manipulation by personnel unauthorized by Fagor Automation.
If the CNC hardware is modified by personnel unauthor ized by Fagor Automation, it will no longer be under warranty.
COMPUTER VIRUSES
FAGOR AUTOMATION guarantees that the software installed contains no computer viruses. It is up to the user to keep the unit virus free in order to guarantee its proper operation.
Computer viruses at the CNC may cause it to malfunction. An antivirus software is highly recommended if the CNC is connected directly to another PC, it is part of a computer network or floppy disks or other compute r media is used to transmit data.
FAGOR AUTOMATION shall no t be held responsible for any personal injuries or physical damage caused or suffered by the CNC due a computer virus in the system.

WARRANTY TERMS
INITIAL WARRANTY
All products manufactured or marketed by FAGOR carry a 12-month warranty for the end user which could be controlled by the our service network by means of the warranty control system established by FAGOR for this purpose.
In order to prevent the possibility of having the time period from the time a product leaves our warehouse until the end user actually receives it run against this 12-month warranty, FAGOR has set up a warranty control system based on having the manufacturer or agent inform FAGOR of the destination, identification and on-machine installation date, by filling out the document accompanying each FAGOR product in the warranty envelope. This system, besides assuring a full year of warranty to the end user, enables our service network to know about FAGOR equipment coming from other countries into their area of responsibility.
The warranty starting date will be the one appearing as the installation date on the above mentioned document. FAGOR offers the manufacturer or agent 12 months to sell and install the product. This means that the warranty starting date may be up to one year after the product has left our warehouse so long as the warranty control sheet has been sent back to us. This translates into the extension of warranty period to two years since the product left our warehouse. If this sheet has not been sent to us, the warranty period ends 15 months from when the product left our warehouse.
This warranty covers all costs of material and labour involved in repairs at FAGOR carried out to correct malfunctions in the equipment. FAGOR undertakes to repair or replace their products within the period from the moment manufacture begins until 8 years after the date on which it disappears from the catalogue.
It is entirely up to FAGOR to determine whether the repair is or not under warranty.
EXCLUDING CLAUSES
Repairs will be carried out on our premises. Therefore, all expenses incurred as a result of trips made by technical personnel to carry out equipment repairs, despite these being within the above-mentioned period of warranty, are not covered by the warranty.
Said warranty will be applied whenever the equipment has been installed in accordance with instructions, has not be mistreated, has not been damaged by accident or by negligence and has not been tampered with by personnel not authorised by FAGOR. If, once servicing or repairs have been made, the cause of the malfunction cannot be attributed to said elements, the customer is obliged to cover the expenses incurred, in accordance with the tariffs in force.
Other warranties, implicit or explicit, are not covered and FAGOR AUTOMATION cannot be held responsible for other damages which may occur.

WARRANTY ON REPAIRS
In a similar way to the initial warranty, FAGOR offers a warranty on standard repairs according to the following conditions:
PERIOD 12 months.
CONCEPT Covers parts and labor for repairs (or replacements) at the
network's own facilities.
EXCLUDING CLAUSES The same as those applied regarding the chapter on initial
warranty. If the repair is carried out within the warranty period, the warranty extension has no effect.
When the customer does not choose the standard repair and just the faulty material has been replaced, the warranty will cover just the replaced parts or components within 12 months.
For sold parts the warranty is 12 moths length.

CNC MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
The accumulated dirt inside the unit may act as a screen preventing the proper dissipation of the heat generated by the internal circuitry which could result in a harmful overheating of the unit and, consequently, possible malfunctions. Accumulated dirt can sometimes act as an electrical conductor and short-circuit the internal circuitry, especially under high humidity conditions.
To clean the operator panel and the monitor, a smooth cloth should be used which has been dipped into de-ionized water and /or non abrasive dish-washer soap (liquid, never powder) or 75º alcohol. Do not use highly compressed air to clean the unit because it could generate electrostatic discharges.
The plastics used on the front panel are resistant to grease and mineral oils, bases and bleach, dissolved detergents and alcohol. Avoid the action of solvents such as chlorine hydrocarbons, venzole, esters and ether which can damage the plastics used to make the unit’s front panel.
PRECAUTIONS BEFORE CLEANING THE UNIT
Fagor Automation shall not be held responsible for any material or physical damage derived from the violation of these basic safety requirements.
• Do not handle the connectors with the unit connected to AC power. Before handling these connectors (I/O, feedback, etc.), make sure that the unit is not connected to main AC power.
• Do not get into the inside of the unit. Only personnel authorized by Fagor Automation may manipulate the inside of this unit.
• If the CNC does not turn on when actuating the start-up switch, verify the connections.

2.2 Operations with the axes.

2.2.1 Home search.
Home search is the operation used to synchronize the system. This operation must be carried out when the CNC loses the position of the origin point (e.g. by turning the machine off).
When "searching home", the axes move to the machine reference point and the CNC assumes the coordinate values assigned to that point by the machine manufacturer, referred to machine zero. When using distance-coded reference marks or absolute feedback, the axes will only move the distance necessary to verify their position.
The axes may be homed manually (axis by axis from the operator panel) or automatically (using a subroutine).
Manual home search (one axis at a time).
The axis-by-axis home search cancels the zero offset, the fixture offset and the measuring offset. The

2.2.3 Jogging the axes with handwheels
Electronic handwheels may be used to move the axes. Depending on the type of handwheel, The CNC may have general handwheels to move any axis or individual handwheels that will only move their associated axes.
To move the axes with the handwheels, turn the jog selector switch of the operator panel to one of the handwheel positions. Every position indicates the multiplying factor applied to the handwheel pulses; the typical values are the following.
Position. Movement per revolution of the handwheel.
1 0.100 mm or 0.0100 inches.
10 1.000 mm or 0.1000 inches.
100 10.000 mm or 1.0000 inches.
Once the desired resolution has been selected and depending on the type of handwheel being used, general or individual, proceed as follows.
2.
General handwheel
The CNC may have several general handwheels. The general handwheel is not associated with any axis in particular, it may be used to move any axis of the machine even if it has an individual handwheel associated with it.
• If there are several axes selected in handwheel mode, the general handwheel will move all of them.
• If an axis has been selected which has an individual handwheel selected with it, this axis may be moved with the general handwheel, with the individual one or with both at the same time. When using both handwheels simultaneously, the CNC will add or subtract the pulses provided by both handwheels depending on which direction they are turned.
• If the CNC has several general handwheels, any of them can move the axes selected in handwheel mode. When using several handwheels simultaneously, each axis involved will be applied the sum of the increments of all the handwheels.
These are the steps to follow for moving one or several axes with the general handwheel.
1 Select the axis or axes to be jogged. The CNC will highlight the selected axes. When
selecting an axis or quitting the handwheel mode using the movement selector, the previous one is automatically deselected.
2 Once the axis has been selected, the CNC will move it as the handwheel is turned
depending on the setting of the selector switch and on the turning direction of the handwheel.
The feedrate depends on how fast the handwheel is turned.
Selecting the axes to be jogged
Operations with the axes.
OPERATING IN JOG MODE
There are two ways to select the axes.
1 On the JOG keyboard, press one of the keys for the axis to be jogged. Selecting an axis
de-selects the previous one. To select several axes, press one of the keys of each key at the same time.
An axis needs not belong to the active channel in order to be selected. An axis from one channel may be set in handwheel mode from another channel, if the channel of the axis is also in jog mode.
2 When using a handwheel with a push-button, the push-button may be used to select,
sequentially, the axes to be jogged. Pushing the button selects the first one of the axes being displayed. If an axis has already been selected, it de-selects it and selects the next one. If it was the last one, it selects the first one again.
Only the axes being displayed in the active channel may be selected, regardless of the channel they belong to. The axes of another channel cannot be selected if they are not being displayed.
An axis is de-selected when quitting the handwheel mode using the movement selector and after a reset. If an axis has been set in handwheel mode from the PLC, it can only be deactivated from the PLC; a reset does not deactivate it.

Selecting an axis from the automatic mode
When having only one channel, if while in automatic mode, you set the switch in handwheel mode and select an axis, when going to jog mode, it maintains the selected axis.
Individual handwheel
The CNC can have several individual handwheels, where each of them is associated with a particular axis. The CNC moves each axis as its relevant handwheel is turned depending on the setting of the selector switch and on the turning direction of the handwheel.
In handwheel mode, this symbol next to an axis indicates that the axis has an individual handwheel associated with it.
When moving several axes simultaneously using handwheels, all the axes having their own handwheel plus the ones that may be selected with the general handwheel may be involved. When moving several axes at the same time, the feedrate of each axis depends on how fast its associated handwheel is turned.
It may happen that depending on the turning speed and the selector position, the CNC be demanded
i
a faster feedrate than the maximum allowed. In that case, the CNC will move the axis the indicated distance but at the maximum feedrate allowed.
Feed handwheel.
Usually, when machining a part for the first time, the feedrate is controlled by the switch on the operator panel. The "feed handwheel" allows using one of the handwheels of the machine to control that feedrate depending on how fast the handwheel is turned.
This feature must be managed from the PLC. Usually, this feature is turned on and off using an external
i
push button or key configured for that purpose.

• If G00 is active, the movement is carried out at the rapid rate defined by the machine manufacturer.
• If G01 is active, the movement is carried out at the active feedrate. If no feedrate is active, the movement is executed at the feedrate defined by the machine manufacturer.

Geometrical configuration of the axes on a lathe: "plane" or "trihedron".
At the lathe model, the geometrical configuration of the axes may be either of the "plane" or "trihedron" type depending on the availability of a third main axis, usually the ·Y· axis. The different calibration modes adapt to the current configuration showing the necessary data for each one of them.

It is the typical configuration of a milling machine or of a lathe that has a third main axis (·Y· axis).
There are three axes forming a Cartesian XYZ type trihedron like on a milling machine. There may be more axes besides
Z+
those forming the trihedron.
With this configuration, the planes behave in the same way as on a milling machine except that the usual work plane will be G18 (if it has been configured like that).
Geometrical configuration of "plane" type axes.
It is the typical configuration of a lathe.
OPERATING IN JOG MODE
There are two axes forming the usual work plane. There may be more axes, but they cannot be part of the trihedron; there
Z+
must be auxiliary, rotary, etc.
With this configuration, the active plane will be formed by the first two axes defined in the channel. If the X (first) and Z (second) axes have been defined, the work plane will be the ZX (Z as abscissa and X as ordinate).
The work plane is always G18; the plane cannot be changed via part-program.
Configuration of "plane" type axes. The longitudinal axis.
In this configuration, the second axis of the channel is considered as longitudinal axis. If the X (first) and Z (second) axes have been defined, the work plane will be the ZX and Z will be the longitudinal axis. Tool length compensation is applied on this longitudinal axis when using milling tools. With lathe tools, tool length compensation is applied on all the axes where a tool offset has been defined.
When using milling tools on a lathe, the longitudinal compensation axis may be changed by means of the #TOOL AX instruction or the G20 function.

Considerations for the offsets and their wear.
It must be borne in mind that the offset of a tool on an axis is the distance between the base of the tool and its tip (nose). This means that when calculating the offset of a milling tool on an axis that includes the radius dimension, that radius is included in the offset. The same is true for the tool length.

3.4.1 Basic operation
The machining steps in this cycle are as follows:
1 If the roughing operation was programmed with another tool the CNC makes a tool
change, moving to the change point if the machine so requires.
2 The spindle starts with the speed selected and in the direction stated. 3 The tool approaches the starting point (Xi, Zi) in rapid, keeping the selected safety
distance according to axes X and Z.
4 Roughing operation, by successive turning passes, to a distance from the final diameter
selected equal to the finishing excess material. This operation is done with the conditions set for the roughing operation.
If ∆ is positive, the CNC calculates the real pass so all the turning passes are identical. This pass will be equal to or under the defined value ∆.
If ∆ is negative, the passes are run with the programmed value, except the last one that machines the rest.
Each turning pass is done as shown in the figure, starting at point "1" and after going through points "2", "3" and "4", ending at point "5".

3.10.1 Basic operation
The machining steps in this cycle are as follows:
1 If the roughing operation was programmed with another tool the CNC makes a tool
change, moving to the change point if the machine so requires.
2 The spindle starts with the speed selected and in the direction stated. 3 The tool approaches the theoretical corner in rapid, keeping the safety distance selected
according to axes X and Z.
4 Roughing operation, by successive turning passes, to a distance from the final diameter
selected equal to the finishing excess material. This operation is done with the conditions set for the roughing operation.
If is positive, the CNC calculates the real pass so all the facing passes are identical. This pass will be equal to or under the defined value ∆.
If ∆ is negative, the passes are run with the programmed value, except the last one that machines the rest.
Each turning pass is done as shown in the figure, starting at point "1" and after going through points "2", "3" and "4", ending at point "5".

5 Finishing operation.
If the finishing operation was programmed with another tool, the CNC will make a tool change, moving to the change point if the machine so requires.
The part finishing is done with the machining conditions set for finishing; axis feedrate (F), spindle speed (S), turning direction.

Operating manual
6 Once the operation or cycle has ended, the tool will return to the safety point. When
executing a complete part, a combination of operations or cycles, the tool does not return to that point after executing each cycle.
7 The CNC will not stop the spindle but keeps the machining conditions set for finishing
selected; tool (T), axis feedrate (F) and spindle speed (S).
Considerations
If T0 is selected as roughing tool, the cycle does not execute the roughing operation. This means that after approaching the finishing operation will be carried out.
If T0 is selected as finishing tool, the cycle does not execute the finishing operation. This means that, after the roughing operation, the tool will move to the approach point, keeping the safety distance with respect to the starting point (Xi, Zi).
The roughing operation is carried out in G05, the rounding radius may be modified using the instruction #ROUNDPAR. If not programmed, it assumes the default rounding radius set by machine parameters.
The finishing operation is carried out in G07 except the tangent paths, they are carried out in G05.
