SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

GENERAL W ARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

WARNING
1. Never attempt to machine a workpiece without first checking the operation of the machine.
Before starting a production run, ensure that the machine is operating correctly by performing a trial run using, for example, the single block, feedrate override, or machine lock function or by operating the machine with neither a tool nor workpiece mounted. Failure to confirm the correct operation of the machine may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.
2. Before operating the machine, thoroughly check the entered data.
Operating the machine with incorrectly specified data may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly , possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.
3. Ensure that the specified feedrate is appropriate for the intended operation. Generally , for each
machine, there is a maximum allowable feedrate. The appropriate feedrate varies with the intended operation. Refer to the manual provided with the machine to determine the maximum allowable feedrate. If a machine is run at other than the correct speed, it may behave unexpectedly , possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.
4. When using a tool compensation function, thoroughly check the direction and amount of
compensation. Operating the machine with incorrectly specified data may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly , possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.
5. The parameters for the CNC and PMC are factory–set. Usually , there is not need to change them.
When, however, there is not alternative other than to change a parameter, ensure that you fully understand the function of the parameter before making any change. Failure to set a parameter correctly may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly , possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.
6. Immediately after switching on the power , do not touch any of the keys on the MDI panel until
the position display or alarm screen appears on the CNC unit. Some of the keys on the MDI panel are dedicated to maintenance or other special operations. Pressing any of these keys may place the CNC unit in other than its normal state. Starting the machine in this state may cause it to behave unexpectedly.
7. The operator’s manual and programming manual supplied with a CNC unit provide an overall
description of the machine’s functions, including any optional functions. Note that the optional functions will vary from one machine model to another. Therefore, some functions described in the manuals may not actually be available for a particular model. Check the specification of the machine if in doubt.

WARNING
8. Some functions may have been implemented at the request of the machine–tool builder . When
using such functions, refer to the manual supplied by the machine–tool builder for details of their use and any related cautions.
NOTE
Programs, parameters, and macro variables are stored in nonvolatile memory in the CNC unit. Usually, they are retained even if the power is turned of f. Such data may be deleted inadvertently, however, or it may prove necessary to delete all data from nonvolatile memory as part of error recovery. T o guard against the occurrence of the above, and assure quick restoration of deleted data, backup all vital data, and keep the backup copy in a safe place.

1. Coordinate system setting
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

W ARNINGS AND CAUTIONS RELATED TO PROGRAMMING

This section covers the major safety precautions related to programming. Before attempting to perform programming, read the supplied operators manual and programming manual carefully such that you are fully familiar with their contents.
WARNING
If a coordinate system is established incorrectly, the machine may behave unexpectedly as a result of the program issuing an otherwise valid move command. Such an unexpected operation may damage the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or cause injury to the user.
2. Positioning by nonlinear interpolation
When performing positioning by nonlinear interpolation (positioning by nonlinear movement between the start and end points), the tool path must be carefully confirmed before performing programming. Positioning involves rapid traverse. If the tool collides with the workpiece, it may damage the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or cause injury to the user.
3. Function involving a rotation axis
When programming polar coordinate interpolation or normal–direction (perpendicular) control, pay careful attention to the speed of the rotation axis. Incorrect programming may result in the rotation axis speed becoming excessively high, such that centrifugal force causes the chuck to lose its grip on the workpiece if the latter is not mounted securely. Such mishap is likely to damage the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or cause injury to the user.
4. Inch/metric conversion
Switching between inch and metric inputs does not convert the measurement units of data such as the workpiece origin offset, parameter, and current position. Before starting the machine, therefore, determine which measurement units are being used. Attempting to perform an operation with invalid data specified may damage the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or cause injury to the user.
5. Constant surface speed control
When an axis subject to constant surface speed control approaches the origin of the workpiece coordinate system, the spindle speed may become excessively high. Therefore, it is necessary to specify a maximum allowable speed. Specifying the maximum allowable speed incorrectly may damage the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or cause injury to the user.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
6. Stroke check
After switching on the power, perform a manual reference position return as required. Stroke check is not possible before manual reference position return is performed. Note that when stroke check is disabled, an alarm is not issued even if a stroke limit is exceeded, possibly damaging the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or causing injury to the user.
7. Absolute/incremental mode
If a program created with absolute values is run in incremental mode, or vice versa, the machine may behave unexpectedly.
8. Plane selection
If an incorrect plane is specified for circular interpolation, helical interpolation, or a canned cycle, the machine may behave unexpectedly. Refer to the descriptions of the respective functions for details.
B–63514EN/01
9. Programmable mirror image
Note that programmed operations vary considerably when a programmable mirror image is enabled.
10.Compensation function
If a command based on the machine coordinate system or a reference position return command is issued in compensation function mode, compensation is temporarily canceled, resulting in the unexpected behavior of the machine. Before issuing any of the above commands, therefore, always cancel compensation function mode.

1. Manual operation
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

W ARNINGS AND CAUTIONS RELATED TO HANDLING

This section presents safety precautions related to the handling of machine tools. Before attempting to operate your machine, read the supplied operators manual and programming manual carefully, such that you are fully familiar with their contents.
WARNING
When operating the machine manually , determine the current position of the tool and workpiece, and ensure that the movement axis, direction, and feedrate have been specified correctly. Incorrect operation of the machine may damage the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or cause injury to the operator.
2. Manual reference position return
After switching on the power, perform manual reference position return as required. If the machine is operated without first performing manual reference position return, it may behave unexpectedly . Stroke check is not possible before manual reference position return is performed. An unexpected operation of the machine may damage the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or cause injury to the user.
3. Manual handle feed
In manual handle feed, rotating the handle with a large scale factor, such as 100, applied causes the tool and table to move rapidly. Careless handling may damage the tool and/or machine, or cause injury to the user.
4. Disabled override
If override is disabled (according to the specification in a macro variable) during threading, rigid tapping, or other tapping, the speed cannot be predicted, possibly damaging the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or causing injury to the operator.
5. Origin/preset operation
Basically, never attempt an origin/preset operation when the machine is operating under the control of a program. Otherwise, the machine may behave unexpectedly, possibly damaging the tool, the machine itself, the tool, or causing injury to the user.
s–7
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
6. Workpiece coordinate system shift
Manual intervention, machine lock, or mirror imaging may shift the workpiece coordinate system. Before attempting to operate the machine under the control of a program, confirm the coordinate system carefully. If the machine is operated under the control of a program without making allowances for any shift in the workpiece coordinate system, the machine may behave unexpectedly, possibly damaging the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or causing injury to the operator.
7. Software operator ’s panel and menu switches
Using the software operators panel and menu switches, in combination with the MDI panel, it is possible to specify operations not supported by the machine operators panel, such as mode change, override value change, and jog feed commands. Note, however, that if the MDI panel keys are operated inadvertently, the machine may behave unexpectedly, possibly damaging the tool, the machine itself, the workpiece, or causing injury to the user.
B–63514EN/01
8. Manual intervention
If manual intervention is performed during programmed operation of the machine, the tool path may vary when the machine is restarted. Before restarting the machine after manual intervention, therefore, confirm the settings of the manual absolute switches, parameters, and absolute/incremental command mode.
9. Feed hold, override, and single block
The feed hold, feedrate override, and single block functions can be disabled using custom macro system variable #3004. Be careful when operating the machine in this case.
10.Dry run
Usually, a dry run is used to confirm the operation of the machine. During a dry run, the machine operates at dry run speed, which differs from the corresponding programmed feedrate. Note that the dry run speed may sometimes be higher than the programmed feed rate.
11. Cutter compensation in MDI mode
Pay careful attention to a tool path specified by a command in MDI mode, because cutter or tool nose radius compensation is not applied. When a command is entered from the MDI to interrupt in automatic operation in cutter compensation mode, pay particular attention to the tool path when automatic operation is subsequently resumed. Refer to the descriptions of the corresponding functions for details.
12.Program editing
If the machine is stopped, after which the machining program is edited (modification, insertion, or deletion), the machine may behave unexpectedly if machining is resumed under the control of that program. Basically , do not modify, insert, or delete commands from a machining program while it is in use.

1.1 GENERAL FLOW OF OPERATION OF CNC MACHINE TOOL
When machining the part using the CNC machine tool, first prepare the program, then operate the CNC machine by using the program.
1) First, prepare the program from a part drawing to operate the CNC machine tool. How to prepare the program is described in the Chapter II. PROGRAMMING.
2) The program is to be read into the CNC system. Then, mount the workpieces and tools on the machine, and operate the tools according to the programming. Finally, execute the machining actually. How to operate the CNC system is described in the Chapter III. OPERATION.

1.2 NOTES ON READING THIS MANUAL
GENERAL
NOTE
1 The function of an CNC machine tool system depends not
only on the CNC, but on the combination of the machine tool, its magnetic cabinet, the servo system, the CNC, the operators panels, etc. It is too difficult to describe the function, programming, and operation relating to all combinations. This manual generally describes these from the stand–point of the CNC. So, for details on a particular CNC machine tool, refer to the manual issued by the machine tool builder, which should take precedence over this manual.
2 Headings are placed in the left margin so that the reader can
easily access necessary information. When locating the necessary information, the reader can save time by searching though these headings.
3 Machining programs, parameters, variables, etc. are stored
in the CNC unit internal non–volatile memory. In general, these contents are not lost by the switching ON/OFF of the power. However, it is possible that a state can occur where precious data stored in the non–volatile memory has to be deleted, because of deletions from a maloperation, or by a failure restoration. In order to restore rapidly when this kind of mishap occurs, it is recommended that you create a copy of the various kinds of data beforehand.
4 This manual describes as many reasonable variations in
equipment usage as possible. It cannot address every combination of features, options and commands that should not be attempted. If a particular combination of operations is not described, it should not be attempted.

The tool moves on the coordinate system specified by the CNC in accordance with the command program generated with respect to the coordinate system on the part drawing, and cuts a workpiece into a shape on the drawing. Therefore, in order to correctly cut the workpiece as specified on the drawing, the two coordinate systems must be set at the same position.
To set the two coordinate systems at the same position, simple methods shall be used according to workpiece shape, the number of machinings.

1.4 CUTTING SPEED – SPINDLE SPEED FUNCTION
Examples
The speed of the tool with respect to the workpiece when the workpiece is cut is called the cutting speed. As for the CNC, the cutting speed can be specified by the spindle speed in rpm unit.

f D mm
V: Cutting speed
m/min
<When a workpiece should be machined with a tool 100 mm in diameter at a cutting speed of 80 m/min. >
The spindle speed is approximately 250 rpm, which is obtained from N=1000v/πD. Hence the following command is required:
S250; Commands related to the spindle speed are called the spindle speed function ( See II–9) .

1.5 SELECTION OF T OOL USED FOR VARIOUS MACHINING – TOOL FUNCTION
Examples
When drilling, tapping, boring, milling or the like, is performed, it is necessary to select a suitable tool. When a number is assigned to each tool and the number is specified in the program, the corresponding tool is selected.
Tool number
01 02
ATC magazine
<When No.01 is assigned to a drilling tool>
When the tool is stored at location 01 in the ATC magazine, the tool can be selected by specifying T01. This is called the tool function (See II–10).

1.6 COMMAND FOR MACHINE OPERATIONS – MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTION
When machining is actually started, it is necessary to rotate the spindle, and feed coolant. For this purpose, on–off operations of spindle motor and coolant valve should be controlled.
Tool
Coolant
Workpiece
The function of specifying the on–off operations of the components of the machine is called the miscellaneous function. In general, the function is specified by an M code (See II–11). For example, when M03 is specified, the spindle is rotated clockwise at the specified spindle speed.

When machining of the same pattern appears at many portions of a program, a program for the pattern is created. This is called the subprogram. On the other hand, the original program is called the main program. When a subprogram execution command appears during execution of the main program, commands of the subprogram are executed. When execution of the subprogram is finished, the sequence returns to the main program.

D Machining using the end
of cutter – Tool length compensation function (See II–14.1)
D Machining using the side
of cutter – Cutter compensation function (See II–14.4,14.5)
Usually, several tools are used for machining one workpiece. The tools have different tool length. It is very troublesome to change the program in accordance with the tools. Therefore, the length of each tool used should be measured in advance. By setting the difference between the length of the standard tool and the length of each tool in the CNC (data display and setting : see III–11), machining can be performed without altering the program even when the tool is changed. This function is called tool length compensation.

D Default axis name
D Duplicate axis names
The names of three basic axes are always X, Y, and Z. The name of an additional axis can be set to A, B, C, U, V , or W by using parameter 1020. Parameter No. 1020 is used to determine the name of each axis. When this parameter is set to 0 or a character other than the valid characters is specified, an axis name from 1 to 4 is assigned by default.
When a default axis name (1 to 4) is used, operation in the MEM mode, MDI mode, and RMT mode is disabled.
If a duplicate axis name is specified in the parameter, operation is enabled only for the axis specified first.

2.3 INCREMENT SYSTEM
The increment system consists of the least input increment (for input) and least command increment (for output). The least input increment is the least increment for programming the travel distance. The least command increment is the least increment for moving the tool on the machine. Both increments are represented in mm, inches, or deg. The increment system is classified into IS–B and IS–C. Select IS–B or IS–C using bit 1 (ISC) of parameter 1004. The setting of bit 1 (ISC) of parameter No.1004 applies to all axes. When IS–C is selected, for example, the increment system for all axes is set to IS–C.

The least command increment is either metric or inch depending on the machine tool. Set metric or inch to the parameter INM (No.100#0). For selection between metric and inch for the least input increment, G code (G20 or G21) or a setting parameter selects it.
Combined use of the inch system and the metric system is not allowed. There are functions that cannot be used between axes with different unit systems (circular interpolation, cutter compensation, etc.). For the increment system, see the machine tool builders manual.

Explanations
1. When the clear state (bit 6 (CLR) of parameter No. 3402) is set at power–up or reset, the modal G codes are placed in the states described below.
(1) The modal G codes are placed in the states marked with
as
indicated in Table 3.
(2) G20 and G21 remain unchanged when the clear state is set at
power–up or reset.
(3) Which status G22 or G23 at power on is set by parameter G23 (No.
3402#7). However, G22 and G23 remain unchanged when the clear state is set at reset.
(4) The user can select G00 or G01 by setting bit 0 (G01) of parameter
No. 3402.
(5) The user can select G90 or G91 by setting bit 3 (G91) of parameter
No. 3402.
(6) The user can select G17, G18, or G19 by setting bit 1 (parameterG18)
and bit 2 (parameter G19) of parameter No. 3402.
2.G codes other than G10 and G11 are one–shot G codes.
3.When a G code not listed in the G code list is specified, P/S alarm No. 010 is output.
4.Multiple G codes can be specified in the same block if each G code belongs to a different group. If multiple G codes that belong to the same group are specified in the same block, only the last G code specified is valid.
5.If a G code belonging to group 01 is specified in a canned cycle, the canned cycle is cancelled. This means that the same state set by specifying G80 is set. Note that the G codes in group 01 are not affected by a G code specifying a canned cycle.
6.G codes are indicated by group.
7.The group of G60 is switched according to the setting of the MDL bit (bit 0 of parameter 5431). (When the MDL bit is set to 0, the 00 group is selected. When the MDL bit is set to 1, the 01 group is selected.)

4.1 POSITIONING (G00)
Format
PROGRAMMING
4. INTERPOLATION FUNCTIONS
The G00 command moves a tool to the position in the workpiece system specified with an absolute or an incremental command at a rapid traverse rate. In the absolute command, coordinate value of the end point is programmed. In the incremental command the distance the tool moves is programmed.
G00 _;IP
_: For an absolute command, the coordinates of an end
IP
position, and for an incremental commnad, the distance the tool moves.
Explanations
Either of the following tool paths can be selected according to bit 1 of parameter LRP No. 1401.
D Nonlinear interpolation positioning
The tool is positioned with the rapid traverse rate for each axis separately. The tool path is normally straight.
D Linear interpolation positioning
The tool path is the same as in linear interpolation (G01). The tool is positioned within the shortest possible time at a speed that is not more than the rapid traverse rate for each axis.
Start position
Linear interpolation positioning
End position
Non linear interpolation positioning
The rapid traverse rate in G00 command is set to the parameter No. 1420 for each axis independently by the machine tool builder. In the posiitoning mode actuated by G00, the tool is accelerated to a predetermined speed at the start of a block and is decelerated at the end of a block. Execution proceeds to the next block after confirming the in–position. “In–position ” means that the feed motor is within the specified range. This range is determined by the machine tool builder by setting to parameter (No. 1826). In–position check for each block can be disabled by setting bit 5 (NCI) of parameter No.1601 accordingly.

G60, which is an one–shot G–code, can be used as a modal G–code in group 01 by setting 1 to the parameter (No. 5431 bit 0 MDL). This setting can eliminate specifying a G60 command for every block. Other specifications are the same as those for an one–shot G60 command. When an one–shot G code is sepcified in the single direction positioning mode, the one–shot G command is effective like G codes in group 01.

The feed rate of the rotary axis is commanded in the unit of deg/min (the unit is decimal point position).
When the straight line axis α(such as X, Y, or Z) and the rotating axisβ (such as A, B, or C) are linearly interpolated, the feed rate is that in which the tangential feed rate in the α and β cartesian coordinate system is commanded by F(mm/min). β–axis feedrate is obtained ; at first, the time required for distribution is calculated by using the above fromula, then the β –axis feedrate unit is changed to deg 1min.

The feedrate in circular interpolation is equal to the feed rate specified by the F code, and the feedrate along the arc (the tangential feedrate of the arc) is controlled to be the specified feedrate. The error between the specified feedrate and the actual tool feedrate is ±2% or less. However, this feed rate is measured along the arc after the cutter compensation is applied
If I, J, K, and R addresses are specified simultaneously, the arc specified by address R takes precedence and the other are ignored. If an axis not comprising the specified plane is commanded, an alarm is displayed. For example, if axis U is specified as a parallel axis to X axis when plane XY is specified, an P/S alarm (No.028)is displayed. When an arc having a center angle approaching 180° is specified, the calculated center coordinates may contain an error . In such a case, specify the center of the arc with I, J, and K.

CYLINDRICAL INTERPOLATION (G07.1)

The amount of travel of a rotary axis specified by an angle is once internally converted to a distance of a linear axis along the outer surface so that linear interpolation or circular interpolation can be performed with another axis. After interpolation, such a distance is converted back to the amount of travel of the rotary axis. The cylindrical interpolation function allows the side of a cylinder to be developed for programming. So programs such as a program for cylindrical cam grooving can be created very easily.

Use parameter (No. 1022) to specify whether the rotation axis is the X–, Y–, or Z–axis, or an axis parallel to one of these axes. Specify the G code to select a plane for which the rotation axis is the specified linear axis. For example, when the rotation axis is an axis parallel to the X–axis, G17 must specify an Xp–Y p plane, which is a plane defined by the rotation axis and the Y–axis or an axis parallel to the Y–axis. Only one rotation axis can be set for cylindrical interpolation.
A feedrate specified in the cylindrical interpolation mode is a speed on the developed cylindrical surface.
In the cylindrical interpolation mode, circular interpolation is possible with the rotation axis and another linear axis. Radius R is used in commands in the same way as described in II–4.4. The unit for a radius is not degrees but millimeters (for metric input) or inches (for inch input). < Example Circular interpolation between the Z axis and C axis >
For the C axis of parameter (No.1022), 5 (axis parallel with the X axis) is to be set. In this case, the command for circular interpolation is
G18 Z__C__;
G02 (G03) Z__C__R__; For the C axis of parameter (No.1022), 6 (axis parallel with the Y axis) may be specified instead. In this case, however, the command for circular interpolation is

D Tool offset
D Cylindrical interpolation
accuracy
To perform tool offset in the cylindrical interpolation mode, cancel any ongoing cutter compensation mode before entering the cylindrical interpolation mode. Then, start and terminate tool offset within the cylindrical interpolation mode.
In the cylindrical interpolation mode, the amount of travel of a rotary axis specified by an angle is once internally converted to a distance of a linear axis on the outer surface so that linear interpolation or circular interpolation can be performed with another axis. After interpolation, such a distance is converted back to an angle. For this conversion, the amount of travel is rounded to a least input increment. So when the radius of a cylinder is small, the actual amount of travel can differ from a specified amount of travel. Note, however , that such an error is not accumulative. If manual operation is performed in the cylindrical interpolation mode with manual absolute on, an error can occur for the reason described above.

In the cylindrical interpolation mode, an arc radius cannot be specified with word address I, J, or K.
If the cylindrical interpolation mode is started when cutter compensation is already applied, circular interpolation is not correctly performed in the cylindrical interpolation mode.
In the cylindrical interpolation mode, positioning operations (including those that produce rapid traverse cycles such as G28, G53, G73, G74, G76, G80 through G89) cannot be specified. Before positioning can be specified, the cylindrical interpolation mode must be cancelled. Cylindrical interpolation (G07.1) cannot be performed in the positioning mode (G00).
In the cylindrical interpolation mode, a workpiece coordinate system (G92, G54 through G59) or local coordinate system (G52) cannot be specified.
In the cylindrical interpolation mode, the cylindrical interpolation mode cannot be reset. The cylindrical interpolation mode must be cancelled before the cylindrical interpolation mode can be reset.

In general, thread cutting is repeated along the same tool path in rough cutting through finish cutting for a screw. Since thread cutting starts when the position coder mounted on the spindle outputs a 1–turn signal, threading is started at a fixed point and the tool path on the workpiece is unchanged for repeated thread cutting. Note that the spindle speed must remain constant from rough cutting through finish cutting. If not, incorrect thread lead will occur. In general, the lag of the servo system, etc. will produce somewhat incorrect leads at the starting and ending points of a thread cut. To compensate for this, a thread cutting length somewhat longer than required should be specified. Table 4.7 (a) lists the ranges for specifying the thread lead.

SKIP FUNCTION (G31)
Format
Explanations
Linear interpolation can be commanded by specifying axial move following the G31 command, like G01. If an external skip signal is input during the execution of this command, execution of the command is interrupted and the next block is executed. The skip function is used when the end of machining is not programmed but specified with a signal from the machine, for example, in grinding. It is used also for measuring the dimensions of a workpiece.

The coordinate values when the skip signal is turned on can be used in a custom macro because they are stored in the custom macro system variable #5061 to #5064, as follows:
#5061 X axis coordinate value #5062 Y axis coordinate value #5063 Z axis coordinate value #5064 4th axis coordinate value
WARNING
Disable feedrate override, dry run, and automatic acceleration/deceleration (however, these become available by setting the parameter SKF No.6200#7 to 1.) when the feedrate per minute is specified, allowing for an error in the position of the tool when a skip signal is input. These functions are enabled when the feedrate per rotation is specified.
NOTE
If G31 command is issued while cutter compensation C is applied, an P/S alarm of No.035 is displayed. Cancel the cutter compensation with the G40 command before the G31 command is specified.

4.9 HIGH SPEED SKIP SIGNAL (G31)
Format
The skip function operates based on a high–speed skip signal (connected directly to the NC; not via the PMC) instead of an ordinary skip signal. In this case, up to eight signals can be input. Delay and error of skip signal input is 0 – 2 msec at the NC side (not considering those at the PMC side). This high–speed skip signal input function keeps this value to 0.1 msec or less, thus allowing high precision measurement.

The positioning command (G00) positions the tool by rapid traverse. In rapid traverse, the next block is executed after the specified feedrate becomes 0 and the servo motor reaches a certain range set by the machine tool builder (in–position check). A rapid traverse rate is set for each axis by parameter No. 1420, so no rapid traverse feedrate need be programmed. The following overrides can be applied to a rapid traverse rate with the switch on the machine operators panel:F0, 25, 50, 100% F0: Allows a fixed feedrate to be set for each axis by parameter No. 1421.

CUTTING FEED
Format
Feedrate of linear interpolation (G01), circular interpolation (G02, G03), etc. are commanded with numbers after the F code. In cutting feed, the next block is executed so that the feedrate change from the previous block is minimized. Three modes of specification are available:
1. Feed per minute (G94) After F, specify the amount of feed of the tool per minute.
2. Feed per revolution (G95) After F, specify the amount of feed of the tool per spindle revolution.
3. F1–digit feed Specify a desired one–digit number after F. Then, the feedrate set with the CNC for that number is set.

D One–digit F code feed
D Cutting feedrate clamp
When a one–digit number from 1 to 9 is specified after F, the feedrate set for that number in a parameter (Nos. 1451 to 1459) is used. When F0 is specified, the rapid traverse rate is applied. The feedrate corresponding to the number currently selected can be increased or decreased by turning on the switch for changing F1–digit feedrate on the machine operators panel, then by rotating the manual pulse generator . The increment/decrement, F, in feedrate per scale of the manual pulse generator is as follows:

X :any value of 1–127 set by parameter (No.1450) The feedrate set or altered is kept even while the power is off. The current feed rate is displayed on the CRT screen.
A common upper limit can be set on the cutting feedrate along each axis with parameter No. 1422. If an actual cutting feedrate (with an override applied) exceeds a specified upper limit, it is clamped to the upper limit. Parameter No. 1430 can be used to specify the maximum cutting feedrate for each axis only for linear interpolation and circular interpolation. When the cutting feedrate along an axis exceeds the maximum feedrate for the axis as a result of interpolation, the cutting feedrate is clamped to the maximum feedrate.
Reference
NOTE
An upper limit is set in mm/min or inch/min. CNC calculation may involve a feedrate error of ±2% with respect to a specified value. However, this is not true for acceleration/deceleration. To be more specific, this error is calculated with respect to a measurement on the time the tool takes to move 500 mm or more during the steady state:

D Flowchart for feedrate
control
This function automatically controls the feedrate at a corner according to the corner angle between the machining blocks or the feedrate difference between the blocks along each axis. This function is effective when ACD, bit 6 of parameter No. 1601, is set to 1, the system is in G64 mode (machining mode), and a cutting–feed block (block A) is followed by another cutting–feed block (block B). The feedrate between machining blocks is controlled according to the corner angle between the blocks or the feedrate difference between the blocks along each axis. These two methods can be switched with CSD, bit 4 of parameter No. 1602.
This function decelerates the feedrate when the angle between blocks A and B on the selected plane is smaller than the angle specified in parameter No. 1740. The function executes block B when the feedrates along both the first and second axes are smaller than the feedrate specified in parameter No. 1741. In this case, the function determines that the number of accumulated pulses is zero.
The flowchart for feedrate control is shown below.

When the corner angle is smaller than the angle specified in the parameter, the relationship between the feedrate and time is as shown below.

The machining angle is compared with the angle specified in parameter (No. 1740) for movements on the selected plane only.

This means, when movement occurs along three or more axes, only that movement along the first and second axes on the selected plane is considered.
Corner roundness is determined by the angle and feedrate specified in parameter (Nos. 1740 and 1741). To always make a sharp corner, set the angle to zero and the feedrate to 180000 (equivalent to 180 degrees).

5.4.3.2
Corner Deceleration According to the Feedrate Difference between Blocks Along Each Axis
Explanations
D Flowchart for feedrate
control
This function decelerates the feedrate when the difference between the feedrates at the end point of block A and the start point of block B along each axis is larger than the value specified in parameter No. 1781. The function executes block B when the feedrates along all axes are smaller than the feedrate specified in parameter No. 1741. In this case, the function determines that the number of accumulated pulses is zero.
The flowchart for feedrate control is shown below.
START
Is the feedrate difference between blocks along each axis larger than the value specified in parameter (No. 1781)?
Yes
Are the feedrates along all axes smaller than that specified in parameter (No. 1741)?
No
No
Further decelerates the feedrate in block A
D Feedrate and time
Yes
The number of accumulated pulses is determined to be zero and block B is executed.
END
When the feedrate difference between blocks along each axis is larger than the value specified in parameter No. 1781, the relationship between the feedrate and time is as shown below. Although accumulated pulses equivalent to the hatched area remain at time t, the next block is executed because the feedrate of the automatic acceleration/deceleration circuit is smaller than the feedrate specified in parameter No. 1741.

Limitations
The allowable feedrate difference can be specified for each axis in parameter No. 1783.
The feedrate difference is also checked during dry–run operation or during deceleration caused by an external signal, using feedrate commands specified in a program.
When G90 (exact stop) is specified, exact stop is performed irrespective of the parameter settings.
If an override is changed during operation, the feedrate difference will not be checked correctly.
This function is not effective for feed–per–rotation commands, address–F–with–one–digit commands, rigid tapping, and a single block.

Dwell G04 X_ ; or G04 P_ ;
X_ : Specify a time (decimal point permitted) P_ : Specify a time (decimal point not permitted)
5. FEED FUNCTIONS
Explanations
By specifying a dwell, the execution of the next block is delayed by the specified time. In addition, a dwell can be specified to make an exact check in the cutting mode (G64 mode). When neither P nor X is specified, exact stop is performed. Bit 1 (DWL) of parameter No. 3405 can specify dwell for each rotation in feed per rotation mode (G95).

PROGRAMMING6. REFERENCE POSITION

REFERENCE POSITION
A CNC machine tool has a special position where, generally, the tool is exchanged or the coordinate system is set, as described later. This position is referred to as a reference position.
