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 operator’s 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–63504EN/01

9. Torque limit skip

Before attempting a torque limit skip, apply the torque limit. If a torque limit skip is specified without the torque limit actually being applied, a move command will be executed without performing a skip.

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 operator’s 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 operator’s panel and menu switches, in combination with the MDI panel, it is possible to specify operations not supported by the machine operator’s 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–63504EN/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. Tool nose radius compensation in MDI mode

Pay careful attention to a tool path specified by a command in MDI mode, because tool nose radius compensation is not applied. When a command is entered from the MDI to interrupt in automatic operation in tool nose radius 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.

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.

NOTES ON READING THIS MANUAL

GENERAL1. 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 operator’s 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.

Reference Position (Machine–Specific Position)

Explanations

A CNC machine tool is provided with a fixed position. Normally, tool change and programming of absolute zero point as described later are performed at this position. This position is called the reference position.

Tool post

Chuck

Fig. 1.3.1 (a) Reference position

The tool can be moved to the reference position in two ways:

1. Manual reference position return (See III–3.1) Reference position return is performed by manual button operation.

Reference position

2. Automatic reference position return (See II–6) In general, manual reference position return is performed first after the power is turned on. In order to move the tool to the reference position for tool change thereafter, the function of automatic reference position return is used.

The following two coordinate systems are specified at different locations: (See II–7)

1. Coordinate system on part drawing The coordinate system is written on the part drawing. As the program data, the coordinate values on this coordinate system are used.

2. Coordinate system specified by the CNC The coordinate system is prepared on the actual machine tool. This can be achieved by programming the distance from the current position of the tool to the zero point of the coordinate system to be set.

PROGRAMMING1. GENERAL

B–63504EN/01

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.

D Methods of setting the

two coordinate systems in the same position

The following method is usually used to define two coordinate systems at the same location.

1. When coordinate zero point is set at chuck face

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.

Tool

Workpiece

Fig. 1.4 Cutting speed

V: Cutting speed

v m/min

φD

N rpm

The spindle speed is approximately 478 rpm, which is obtained from N=1000v/πD. Hence the following command is required:

S478 ;

Commands related to the spindle speed are called the spindle speed function (See II–9). The cutting speed v (m/min) can also be specified directly by the speed value. Even when the workpiece diameter is changed, the CNC changes the spindle speed so that the cutting speed remains constant. This function is called the constant surface speed control function (See II–9.3).

SELECTION OF TOOL 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

02 05

A group of commands at each step of the sequence is called the block. The program consists of a group of blocks for a series of machining. The number for discriminating each block is called the sequence number, and the number for discriminating each program is called the program number (See II–12).

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.

TOOL FIGURE AND TOOL MOTION BY PROGRAM

Explanations

PROGRAMMING

1. GENERAL

D Machining using the end

of cutter – Tool length compensation function (See II–15.1)

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.

TOOL MOVEMENT RANGE – STROKE

Limit switches are installed at the ends of each axis on the machine to prevent tools from moving beyond the ends. The range in which tools can move is called the stroke. Besides the stroke limits, data in memory can be used to define an area which tools cannot enter.

Table

Motor

Limit switch

Tools cannot enter this area. The area is specified by data in memory or a program.

Besides strokes defined with limit switches, the operator can define an area which the tool cannot enter using a program or data in memory . This function is called stroke check (See III–6.3).

NAMES OF AXES

Limitations

D Default axis name

D Duplicate axis name

The names of two basic axes are always X and Z; the names of additional axes can be optionally selected from A, B, C, U, V, W, and Y by using parameter No.1020. Each axis name is determined according to parameter No. 1020. If the parameter specifies 0 or anything other than the nine letters, the axis name defaults to a number from 1 to 4.

When a default axis name (1 to 4) is used, the system cannot operate in MEM or MDI mode.

If the parameter specifies an axis name more than once, only the first axis to be assigned that axis name becomes operable.

NOTE

1 When G code system A is used, the letters U, V, and W

cannot be used as an axis name, because these letters are used as incremental commands for X, Y, and Z. To use the letters U, V, and W as axis names, the G code system must be B or C. Likewise, letter H is used as an incremental command for C, thus incremental commands cannot be used if A or B is used as an axis name.

2 In G76 (multiple–thread cutting), the A address in a block

specifies the tool nose angle instead of a command for axis A. If C or A is used as an axis name, C or A cannot be used as an angle command for a straight line in chamfering or direct drawing dimension programming. Therefore, C and A should be used according to bit 4 (CCR) of parameter No.

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 degrees. The increment system is classified into IS–B and IS–C (Tables 2.3 (a) and

2.3 (b)). 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.

PROGRAMMING

A number following address G determines the meaning of the command for the concerned block. G codes are divided into the following two types.

Type Meaning

One–shot G code The G code is effective only in the block in which it is

specified

Modal G code The G code is effective until another G code of the

same group is specified.

(Example) G01 and G00 are modal G codes.

Z_; X_;

G00Z_;

There are three G code systems : A,B, and C (Table 3). Select a G code system using bits 6 (GSB) and 7 (GSC) of parameter 3401. Generally , this manual describes the use of G code system A, except when the described item can use only G code system B or C. ln such cases, the use of G code system B or C is described.

G01 is effective in this range

B–63504EN/01

PROGRAMMING

3. PREPARATORY FUNCTION (G FUNCTION)

Explanations

1. If the CNC enters the clear state (see bit 6 (CLR) of parameter 3402) when the power is turned on or the CNC is reset, the modal G codes change as follows.

(1)G codes marked with in Table 3 are enabled. (2)When the system is cleared due to power–on or reset, whichever

specified, either G20 or G21, remains effective.

(3)Bit 7 of parameter No. 3402 can be used to specify whether G22

or G23 is selected upon power–on. Resetting the CNC to the clear state does not affect the selection of G22 or G23.

(4) Setting bit 0 (G01) of parameter 3402 determines which code,

either G00 or G01, is effective.

(5) Setting bit 3 (G91) of parameter 3402 determines which code,

either G90 or G91, is effective.

2. G codes of group 00 except G10 and G11 are single–shot G codes.

3. P/S larm (No.010) is displayed when a G code not listed in the G code list is specified.

4. G codes of different groups can be specified in the same block. If G codes of the same group are specified in the same block, the G code specified last is valid.

5. If a G code of group 01 is specified in a canned cycle, the canned cycle is canceled in the same way as when a G80 command is specified. G codes of group 01 are not affected by G codes for specifying a canned cycle.

6. When G code system A is used for a canned cycle, only the initial level is provided at the return point.

7. G codes are displayed for each group number.

POSITIONING (G00)

Format

Explanations

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.

G00IP_;

IP_: For an absolute command, the coordinates of an end

position, and for an incremental command, the distance the tool moves.

Either of the following tool paths can be selected according to bit 1 (LRP) of parameter 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.

Linear interpolation positioning

End position

Non linear interpolation positioning

Start position

The rapid traverse rate in the G00 command is set to the parameter No. 1420 for each axis independently by the machine tool builder. In the positioning 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.

specifying R with I, J, and K

D Specifying an axis that is

not contained in the specified plane

D Difference in the radius

between the start and end points

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

tool nose radius 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 contained in the specified plane is commanded, an alarm is displayed. For example, when a ZX plane is specified in G–code B or C, specifying the X–axis or U–axis (parallel to the X–axis) causes P/S alarm No. 028 to be generated.

If the difference in the radius between the start and end points of the arc exceeds the value specified in parameter No. 3410, P/S alarm No. 020 is generated. If the end point is not on the arc, the tool moves in a straight line along one of the axes after reaching the end point.

D Specifying a semicircle

with R

If an arc having a central angle approaching 180 is specified with R, the calculation of the center coordinates may produce an error . In such a case, specify the center of the arc with I, J, and K.

Polar coordinate interpolation mode is cancelled (for not performing polar coordinate interpolation)

G1 12 and G113 can be used in place of G12.1 and G13.1, respectively.

G12.1 starts the polar coordinate interpolation mode and selects a polar coordinate interpolation plane (Fig. 4.4 (a)). Polar coordinate interpolation is performed on this plane.

When the power is turned on or the system is reset, polar coordinate interpolation is canceled (G13.1). The linear and rotation axes for polar coordinate interpolation must be set in parameters (No. 5460 and 5461) beforehand.

CAUTION

The plane used before G12.1 is specified (plane selected by G17, G18, or G19) is canceled. It is restored when G13.1 (canceling polar coordinate interpolation) is specified. When the system is reset, polar coordinate interpolation is canceled and the plane specified by G17, G18, or G19 is used.

Before G12.1 is specified, a workpiece coordinate system) where the center of the rotary axis is the origin of the coordinate system must be set. In the G12.1 mode, the coordinate system must not be changed (G92, G52, G53, relative coordinate reset, G54 through G59, etc.).

The polar coordinate interpolation mode cannot be started or terminated (G12.1 or G13.1) in the tool nose radius compensation mode (G41 or G42). G12.1 or G13.1 must be specified in the tool nose radius compensation canceled mode (G40).

For a block in the G12.1 mode, the program cannot be restarted. Polar coordinate interpolation converts the tool movement for a figure

programmed in a Cartesian coordinate system to the tool movement in the rotation axis (C–axis) and the linear axis (X–axis). When the tool moves closer to the center of the workpiece, the C–axis component of the feedrate becomes larger and may exceed the maximum cutting feedrate for the C–axis (set in parameter (No. 1422)), causing an alarm (see the figure below). To prevent the C–axis component from exceeding the maximum cutting feedrate for the C–axis, reduce the feedrate specified with address F or create a program so that the tool (center of the tool when tool nose radius compensation is applied) does not move close to the center of the workpiece.

WARNING

to θ3.

In other words, the C–axis component of the feedrate becomes larger as the tool moves closer to the center of the workpiece. The C component of the feedrate may exceed the maximum cutting feedrate for the C–axis because the tool movement in the Cartesian coordinate system has been converted to the tool movement for the C–axis and the X–axis.

CYLINDRICAL INTERPOLATION (G07.1)

Format

Explanations

D Plane selection

(G17, G18, G19)

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.

G07.1 IP r ; Starts the cylindrical interpolation mode

(enables cylindrical interpolation).

: : :

G07.1 IP 0 ; The cylindrical interpolation mode is cancelled.

IP : An address for the rotation axis

r : The radius of the cylinder

Specify G07.1 IP r ; and G07.1 IP 0; in separate blocks. G107 can be used instead of G07.1.

Use parameter No. 1002 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.

D Feedrate

NOTE

The U–, V–, and W–axes (parallel with the basic axis) can be used with G–codes B and C.

accuracy

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 Section 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

G19 C__Z__;

G02 (G03) Z__C__R__;

To perform cutter compensation in the cylindrical interpolation mode, cancel any ongoing cutter compensation mode before entering the cylindrical interpolation mode. Then, start and terminate cutter compensation 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 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.

WARNING

1 Feedrate override is effective (fixed at 100%) during thread cutting. 2 It is very dangerous to stop feeding the thread cutter without stopping the spindle. This will

suddenly increase the cutting depth. Thus, the feed hold function is ineffective while thread cutting. If the feed hold button is pressed during thread cutting, the tool will stop after a block not specifying thread cutting is executed as if the SINGLE BLOCK button were pushed. However, the feed hold lamp (SPL lamp) lights when the FEED HOLD button on the machine control panel is pushed. Then, when the tool stops, the lamp is turned off (Single Block stop status).

3 When the FEED HOLD button is held down, or is pressed again in the first block that does not

specify thread cutting immediately after a thread cutting block, the tool stops at the block that does not specify thread cutting.

4 When thread cutting is executed in the single block status, the tool stops after execution of the

first block not specifying thread cutting.

5 When the mode was changed from automatic operation to manual operation during thread

cutting, the tool stops at the first block not specifying thread cutting as when the feed hold button is pushed as mentioned in Note 3. However, when the mode is changed from one automatic operation mode to another, the tool stops after execution of the block not specifying thread cutting as for the single block mode in Note 4.

6 When the previous block was a thread cutting block, cutting will start immediately without

waiting for detection of the 1–turn signal even if the present block is a thread cutting block.

7 Because the constant surface speed control is effective during scroll thread or tapered screw

cutting and the spindle speed changes, the correct thread lead may not be cut. Therefore, do not use the constant surface speed control during thread cutting. Instead, use G97.

8 The spindle speed override function is disabled during thread cutting. The spindle speed is

CONTINUOUS THREAD CUTTING

Explanations

This function for continuous thread cutting is such that fractional pulses output to a joint between move blocks are overlapped with the next move for pulse processing and output (block overlap) . Therefore, discontinuous machining sections caused by the interruption of move during continuously block machining are eliminated, thus making it possible to continuously direct the block for thread cutting instructions.

Since the system is controlled in such a manner that the synchronism with the spindle does not deviate in the joint between blocks wherever possible, it is possible to performed special thread cutting operation in which the lead and shape change midway.

G32

Fig. 4.8 Continuous Thread Cutting

G32

Even when the same section is repeated for thread cutting while changing the depth of cut, this system allows a correct machining without impairing the threads.

NOTE

1 Block overlap is effective even for G01 command,

producing a more excellent finishing surface.

function.

The start angle (Q) increment is 0.001 degrees. Note that no decimal point can be specified. Example: For a shift angle of 180 degrees, specify Q180000. Q180.000 cannot be specified, because it contains a decimal point.

A start angle (Q) of between 0 and 360000 (in 0.001–degree units) can be specified. If a value greater than 360000 (360 degrees) is specified, it is rounded down to 360000 (360 degrees).

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. For details of how to use this function, refer to the manual supplied by the machine tool builder.

G31 IP_ ;

G31: One–shot G code (If is effective only in the block in which

it is specified)

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 Z axis coordinate value #5063 3rd axis coordinate value #5064 4th axis coordinate value

WARNING

To increase the precision of the tool position when the skip signal is input, feedrate override, dry run, and automatic acceleration/deceleration is disabled for the skip function when the feedrate is specified as a feed per minute value. To enable these functions, set bit 7 (SKF) of parameter No. 6200 to 1. If the feedrate is specified as a feed per rotation value, feedrate override, dry run, and automatic acceleration/deceleration are enabled for the skip function, regardless of the setting of the SKF bit.

NOTE

1 If G31 command is issued while tool nose radius

compensation is applied, an P/S alarm of No. 035 is displayed. Cancel the tool nose radius compensation with the G40 command before the G31 command is specified.

2 For the high–speed skip, executing G31 during feed–per–

TORQUE LIMIT SKIP (G31 P99)

Format

Explanations

D G31 P99

With the motor torque limited (for example, by a torque limit command, issued through the PMC window), a move command following G31 P99 (or G31 P98) can cause the same type of cutting feed as with G01 (linear interpolation). With the issue of a signal indicating a torque limit has been reached (because of pressure being applied or for some other reason), a skip occurs. For details of how to use this function, refer to the manuals supplied by the machine tool builder.

G31 P99 IP_ F_ ; G31 P98 IP_ F_ ;

G31: One–shot G code (G code effective only in the block in which it is issued)

If the motor torque limit is reached, or a SKIP signal is received during execution of G31 P99, the current move command is aborted, and the next block is executed.

D G31 P98

D Torque limit command

D Custom macro system

variable

Limitations

D Axis command

If the motor torque limit is reached during execution of G31 P98, the current move command is aborted, and the next block is executed. The SKIP signal <X0004#7/Tool post 2 X0013#7> does not affect G31 P98. Entering a SKIP signal during the execution of G31 P98 does not cause a skip.

If a torque limit is not specified before the execution of G31 P99/98, the move command continues; no skip occurs even if a torque limit is reached.

When G31 P99/98 is specified, the custom macro variables hold the coordinates at the end of a skip. (See Section 4.10.) If a SKIP signal causes a skip with G31 P99, the custom macro system variables hold the coordinates based on the machine coordinate system when it stops, rather than those when the SKIP signal is entered.

Only one axis can be controlled in each block with G31 P98/99. If two or more axes are specified to be controlled in such blocks, or no axis command is issued, P/S alarm No. 015 is generated.

D Degree of servo error

D High–speed skip

When a signal indicating that a torque limit has been reached is input during execution of G31 P99/98, and the degree of servo error exceeds 32767, P/S alarm No. 244 is generated.

With G31 P99, a SKIP signal can cause a skip, but not a high–speed skip.

Bit 7 (SKF) of parameter No. 6200 must be set to disable dry run, override, and auto acceleration or deceleration for G31 skip commands.

Do not use G31 P99/98 in consecutive blocks.

WARNING

Always specify a torque limit before a G31 P99/98 command. Otherwise, G31 P99/98 allows move commands to be executed without causing a skip.

NOTE

If G31 is issued with tool nose radius compensation specified, P/S alarm No. 035 is generated. Therefore, before issuing G31, execute G40 to cancel tool nose radius compensation.

GENERAL

D Override

D Automatic acceleration/

deceleration

The feed functions control the feedrate of the tool. The following two feed functions are available:

1. Rapid traverse When the positioning command (G00) is specified, the tool moves at!a rapid traverse feedrate set in the CNC (parameter No. 1420).

2. Cutting feed The tool moves at a programmed cutting feedrate.

Override can be applied to a rapid traverse rate or cutting feedrate using the switch on the machine operator’s panel.

T o prevent a mechanical shock, acceleration/deceleration is automatically applied when the tool starts and ends its movement (Fig. 5.1 (a)).

If the direction of movement changes between specified blocks during cutting feed, a rounded–corner path may result (Fig. 5.1 (b)).

In circular interpolation, a radial error occurs (Fig. 5.1 (c)).

The rounded–corner path shown in Fig. 5.1 (b) and the error shown in Fig.

5.1 (c) depend on the feedrate. So, the feedrate needs to be controlled for

the tool to move as programmed.

5. FEED FUNCTIONS

Explanations

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 operator’s panel:F0, 25, 50, 100% F0: Allows a fixed feedrate to be set for each axis by parameter No. 1421. For detailed information, refer to the appropriate manual of the machine tool builder.

CUTTING FEED

Format

Explanations

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. Two modes of specification are available:

1. Feed per minute (G98) After F, specify the amount of feed of the tool per minute.

2. Feed per revolution (G99) After F, specify the amount of feed of the tool per spindle revolution.

Feed per minute

G98 ; G code (group 05) for feed per minute F_ ; Feedrate command (mm/min or inch/min)

Feed per revolution

G99 ; G code (group 05) for feed per revolution F_ ; Feedrate command (mm/rev or inch/rev)

D Tangential speed

constant control

D Feed per minute (G98)

Cutting feed is controlled so that the tangential feedrate is always set at a specified feedrate.

Circular interpolation

After specifying G98 (in the feed per minute mode), the amount of feed of the tool per minute is to be directly specified by setting a number after F . G98 is a modal code. Once a G98 is specified, it is valid until G99 (feed per revolution) is specified. At power–on, the feed per revolution mode is set. An override from 0% to 254% (in 1% steps) can be applied to feed per minute with the switch on the machine operator’s panel. For detailed information, see the appropriate manual of the machine tool builder.

WARNING

No override can be used for some commands such as for threading.

After specifying G99 (in the feed per revolution mode), the amount of feed of the tool per spindle revolution is to be directly specified by setting a number after F . G99 is a modal code. Once a G99 is specified, it is valid until G98 (feed per minute) is specified. An override from 0% to 254% (in 1% steps) can be applied to feed per revolution with the switch on the machine operator’s panel. For detailed information, see the appropriate manual of the machine tool builder.

If bit 0 (NPC) of parameter No. 1402 has been set to 1, feed–per–rotation commands can be specified even when a position coder is not being used. (The CNC converts feed–per–rotation commands to feed–per–minute commands.)

Feed amount per spindle revolution (mm/rev or inch/rev)

CAUTION

When the speed of the spindle is low, feedrate fluctuation may occur. The slower the spindle rotates, the more frequently feedrate fluctuation occurs.

D Cutting feedrate clamp

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.

PROGRAMMING5. FEED FUNCTIONS

B–63504EN/01

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:

See Appendix C for a range of feedrates that can be specified.
