SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The machine is equipped with safety devices which serve to protect personnel and the machine itself from hazards arising from unforeseen accidents. However, operators must not rely exclusively on these safety devices: they must also become fully familiar with the safety guidelines presented below to ensure accident­free operation. This instruction manual and the warning signs attached to the machine cover only those hazards which Okuma can predict. Be aware that they do not cover all possible hazards.

1. Precautions Relating to Installation

(1) Please be noted about a primary power supply as follows.
Do not draw the primary power supply from a distribution panel that also supplies a major
noise source (for example, an electric welder or electric discharge machine) since this could cause malfunction of the CNC unit.
If possible, connect the machine to a ground not used by any other equipment. If there is
no choice but to use a common ground, the other equipment must not generate a large amount of noise (such as an electric welder or electric discharge machine).
(2) Installation Environment
Observe the following points when installing the control enclosure.
Make sure that the CNC unit will not be subject to direct sunlight.
Make sure that the control enclosure will not be splashed with chips, water, or oil.
Make sure that the control enclosure and operation panel are not subject to excessive
vibrations or shock.
The permissible ambient temperature range for the control enclosure is 5 to 40°C.
The permissible ambient humidity range for the control enclosure is relative humidity 50%
or less at 40°C (no condensation).
The maximum altitude at which the control enclosure can be used is 1000 m (3281ft.).

2. Points to Check before Turning on the Power

(1) Close all the doors of the control enclosure and operation panel to prevent the entry of water,
chips, and dust.
(2) Make absolutely sure that there is nobody near the moving parts of the machine, and that there
are no obstacles around the machine, before starting machine operation.
(3) When turning on the power, turn on the main power disconnect switch first, then the CONTROL
ON switch on the operation panel.
Page 3

3. Precautions Relating to Operation

(1) After turning on the power, carry out inspection and adjustment in accordance with the daily
inspection procedure described in this instruction manual.
(2) Use tools whose dimensions and type are appropriate for the work undertaken and the machine
specifications. Do not use badly worn tools since they can cause accidents.
(3) Do not, for any reason, touch the spindle or tool while spindle indexing is in progress since the
spindle could rotate: this is dangerous.
(4) Check that the workpiece and tool are properly secured.
(5) Never touch a workpiece or tool while it is rotating: this is extremely dangerous.
(6) Do not remove chips by hand while machining is in progress since this is dangerous. Always
stop the machine first, then remove the chips with a brush or broom.
(7) Do not operate the machine with any of the safety devices removed. Do not operate the
machine with any of the covers removed unless it is necessary to do so.
(8) Always stop the machine before mounting or removing a tool.
5309-E P-(ii)
(9) Do not approach or touch any moving part of the machine while it is operating.
(10) Do not touch any switch or button with wet hands. This is extremely dangerous.
(11) Before using any switch or button on the operation panel, check that it is the one intended.

4. Precautions Relating to the ATC

(1) The tool clamps of the magazine, spindle, etc., are designed for reliability, but it is possible that
a tool could be released and fall in the event of an unforeseen accident, exposing you to danger: do not touch or approach the ATC mechanism during ATC operation.
(2) Always inspect and change tools in the magazine in the manual magazine interrupt mode.
(3) Remove chips adhering to the magazine at appropriate intervals since they can cause
misoperation. Do not use compressed air to remove these chips since it will only push the chips further in.
(4) If the ATC stops during operation for some reason and it has to be inspected without turning the
power off, do not touch the ATC since it may start moving suddenly.

5. On Finishing Work

(1) On finishing work, clean the vicinity of the machine.
(2) Return the ATC, APC and other equipment to the predetermined retraction position.
(3) Always turn off the power to the machine before leaving it.
(4) To turn off the power, turn off the CONTROL ON switch on the operation panel first, then the
main power disconnect switch.

5309-E P-(iii)

6. Precautions during Maintenance Inspection and When Trouble Occurs

In order to prevent unforeseen accidents, damage to the machine, etc., it is essential to observe the following points when performing maintenance inspections or during checking when trouble has occurred.
(1) When trouble occurs, press the emergency stop button on the operation panel to stop the
machine.
(2) Consult the person responsible for maintenance to determine what corrective measures need
to be taken.
(3) If two or more persons must work together, establish signals so that they can communicate to
confirm safety before proceeding to each new step.
(4) Use only the specified replacement parts and fuses.
(5) Always turn the power off before starting inspection or changing parts.
(6) When parts are removed during inspection or repair work, always replace them as they were
and secure them properly with their screws, etc.
(7) When carrying out inspections in which measuring instruments are used - for example voltage
checks - make sure the instrument is properly calibrated.
(8) Do not keep combustible materials or metals inside the control enclosure or terminal box.
(9) Check that cables and wires are free of damage: damaged cables and wires will cause current
leakage and electric shocks.
(10) Maintenance inside the Control Enclosure
a. Switch the main power disconnect switch OFF before opening the control enclosure door.
b. Even when the main power disconnect switch is OFF, there may some residual charge in
the MCS drive unit (servo/spindle), and for this reason only service personnel are permitted to perform any work on this unit. Even then, they must observe the following precautions.
MCS drive unit (servo/spindle)
The residual voltage discharges two minutes after the main switch is turned OFF.
c. The control enclosure contains the NC unit, and the NC unit has a printed circuit board
whose memory stores the machining programs, parameters, etc. In order to ensure that the contents of this memory will be retained even when the power is switched off, the memory is supplied with power by a battery. Depending on how the printed circuit boards are handled, the contents of the memory may be destroyed and for this reason only service personnel should handle these boards.
Page 5
(11) Periodic Inspection of the Control Enclosure
a. Cleaning the cooling unit
The cooling unit in the door of the control enclosure serves to prevent excessive temperature rise inside the control enclosure and increase the reliability of the NC unit. Inspect the following points every three months.
Is the fan motor inside the cooling unit working?
The motor is normal if there is a strong draft from the unit.
Is the external air inlet blocked?
If it is blocked, clean it with compressed air.

7. General Precautions

(1) Keep the vicinity of the machine clean and tidy.
(2) Wear appropriate clothing while working, and follow the instructions of someone with sufficient
training.
(3) Make sure that your clothes and hair cannot become entangled in the machine. Machine
operators must wear safety equipment such as safety shoes and goggles.
5309-E P-(iv)
(4) Machine operators must read the instruction manual carefully and make sure of the correct
procedure before operating the machine.
(5) Memorize the position of the emergency stop button so that you can press it immediately at any
time and from any position.
(6) Do not access the inside of the control panel, transformer, motor, etc., since they contain high-
voltage terminals and other components which are extremely dangerous.
(7) If two or more persons must work together, establish signals so that they can communicate to
confirm safety before proceeding to each new step.

In "automatic operation mode" and "single block OFF" with "automatic power shutdown ON," the power will be shut down automatically after the duration of one of the following states reaches the time set by 6 "automatic power shutdown timer" of MC user parameter POWER SAVE/SHUT­DOWN:
(1) Schedule end during schedule program selection.
(2) After program end (M2 or M30) execution is completed except during schedule program selec-
tion.
(3) When an alarm A, B or C occurs.
(This function is effective only when 4 "Alarm is added as a requirement for Shutdown" of MC user parameter POWER SAVE/SHUTDOWN is "1".)
- When an alarm A occurs and the setting of the automatic power shutdown timer is 30 sec­onds or less, the power will be shut down 30 seconds after the alarm A occurs.
- When an alarm B occurs, the main spindle will come to a stop 10 seconds after it is con­firmed that the all-axis in-position signal is ON, and the power will be shut down after the time of the automatic power shutdown timer passes away. However, if the setting of the automatic power shutdown timer is 30 seconds or less, the power will be shut down 30 seconds after the main spindle comes to a stop.
- When an alarm C occurs, the power will be shut down after the time of the automatic power shutdown timer passes away following turning OFF of NC run during schedule program selection. This function does not become activated in cases except during schedule pro­gram selection.

2. Chuck (jig) pressure switching

2-1. No. 1 chuck (jig)

(1) Outline
The clamping pressure for the first chuck (jig) can be switched between high and low levels.
If the Chuck Clamp command is given using the pushbutton or code M148 or from the
robot/loader with the workpiece unclamped, the workpiece is clamped at the high pressure.
Giving the M148 command with the workpiece clamped at the low pressure changes the
pressure from the low to the high level. Giving the Chuck Clamp command using the pushbutton or from the robot/loader with the workpiece clamped at the low pressure does not changes the pressure.
Giving the Chuck Unclamp command using the pushbutton or code M149 or from the
robot/loader also gives the high pressure command.
An M code command for low pressure clamping (M385) has been added. The Chuck
Clamp command accompanies the low pressure command.
5309-E P-39
SECTION 2 CHUCK (JIG) CONTROL
Purpose: A higher clamping force may deform the workpice and consequently affects the
machining accuracy. Using the high pressure for rough grinding and the low pres­sure for finishing improves the machining accuracy.
(2) Conditions for supporting the function
The chuck pressure switching function is supported when the fixture control is effective and the following parameter set to "1."
Machine user parameter No.15-3 CHUCK, SIT CONFIRMATION, TAILSTOCK
27 High/low chuck pressure is made switchable.
0...Chuck pressure is not switchable.

If the Chuck Clamp command is given using the pushbutton or code M148 or from the robot/loader with the workpiece unclamped, the workpiece is clamped at the high pressure.
(2) High Pressure Clamp command with workpiece clamped at low pressure
Giving the M148 command with the workpiece clamped at the low pressure changes the pressure from the low to the high level. Giving the Chuck Clamp command using the pushbutton or from the robot/ loader with the workpiece clamped at the low pressure does not changes the pressure.
b. High Pressure Unclamp command
Giving the Chuck Unclamp command using the pushbutton or code M149 or from the robot/loader also gives the high pressure command.
(1) High Pressure Unclamp command
If the Chuck Unclamp command is given using the pushbutton or code M149 or from the robot/loader, the workpiece is unclamped at the high pressure.
5309-E P-40

2. Operation door closing operation with both hands

2-1. Linking the dual-palm starting and operation door closing
sequences
To prevent inadvertent operations and ensure the safety, the system can only be started by pressing two start buttons with both hands. The two pushbuttons include the NC Start and dual-palm start buttons. The start command and operation door closing sequence are linked with each other to eliminate the need for closing the operation door and improve the operability. When the operation door is closed, the safety, which is the purpose of the dual-palm start button, has been ensured and the system can be started with one hand as in usual cases.
(1) Pre-requisite conditions
The dual-palm start button is effective under the condition described below.
The operation door is open in the automatic operation mode and either of the following conditions exists.
Starting at the head of the program.
Starting after M00/M01.
5309-E P-59
Note that the dual-palm start button is ineffective under the condition described below even if the above conditions are met.
The "robot/loader standby position" (iRTRF_b) has been set to "0" for type B or C
robot/loader interface in the linked mode.
With machine user parameter "Robot/loader interface," 2 "Makes cycle start & robot standby position interlock ineffective" set to "1," the above condition will be ignored.
(2) Specifications
If both the NC Start button and dual-palm start button are pressed, the operation door closes. After the door completely closes (the "Door Close" LS turns on), the both inputs turn off to start the NC. The NC Start button and dual-palm start button input signals should turn on/off one second later or earlier than the other.
Note
This function is only effective when the operation door is not closed. With the door closed, single­palm starting applies as in usual cases.

SECTION 4 OPERATION DOOR AUTO OPEN/CLOSE SPEC
a. Turning-on timing of NC Start and dual-palm start buttons
The one should be pressed within a second after the other is pressed. The door closes if both are pressed within a second. If the one is not pressed within a second after the other is pressed, the operation door does not close and the NC does not start. In this case, the following alarm message appears.
"4727 Alarm D Dual palm cycle start 1"
Code 1: The two start pushbuttons do not become activated within one second.
This alarm is released when both pushbutton inputs turn off.
b. Turning-off timing of NC Start and dual-palm start buttons
With the operation door closed, the one should be pressed within a second after the other is pressed. The NC starts if both are pressed within a second. If the one is not pressed within a second after the other is pressed, the NC does not start (the operation door remains closed). In this case, the following alarm message appears (after the elapse of one second).
"4727 Alarm D Dual palm cycle start 2"
Code 2: The two start pushbuttons do not become inactivated within one second.
This alarm is released when the NC is reset or started next as described below. (As the operation door has been closed, the NC can be started next with one hand only.)
ME61048R0200600050002

(3) Sequences under special conditions
a. If the door closing sequence is not linked, the NC Start signal turns on without performing
the door closing sequence.
[Prerequisite conditions] This applies under the following conditions with the operation door open.
Starting in the MDI mode.
Starting in the manual operation mode.
One of the following conditions exists in the automatic operation mode.
Starting with the machine locked.
Starting by sequence number search or cursor search.
Starting after completion of block search by return search operation with the
predominant sequence return function.
Starting after internal operation stop by the predominant sequence return func-
tion.
Starting after sequence return.
Starting with Single Block on.
* Note that, for starting at the head of the program or after M00/M11, the door closes
as usual even with Single Block on.
Starting after a pause.
[Content of sequence] A signal rise triggers the start. The off-timing is not checked. Only the on-timing is checked.

c. For type B or C robot/loader interface
For the conditions for starting via the robot/loader interface, see Section 1 "Specifications for Robot/loader Interface."

2-2. Operation door closing operation with both hands

(1) Outline
The door close pushbuttons should need to be operated with both hands to prevent entangle­ment by the door. The two pushbuttons include the Door Close and dual-palm start buttons.
Note
The Door Open button is operated with one hand as usual (should be pressed solely).
(2) Specifications
If the time lag between the two inputs used for dual-palm door closing operation does not exceed one second, the Door Close signal turns on. If either or both of the two inputs turn off before the "Door Closed" LS turns on, the "Door Closed" LS remains off and the Door Open signal turns on. After the "Door Closed" LS turns on, the Door Close signal remains on regardless of the status of the two inputs. If the time lag between the two inputs used for dual-palm door closing operation exceeds one second, the following alarm message appears and the operation door does not close.
"4728 Alarm D Dual palm operation 1"
5309-E P-62
(3) Door status monitoring
If the relevant limit switch does not respond to the Door Open/Close command (Door Open/ Close SOL) within the time preset by the parameter, the following alarm message appears and the Door Open/Close SOL turns off.
"1738 Alarm A Door open/close answer *" (*: code)
Code 1: The opening of the door was not confirmed.
2: The closing of the door was not confirmed.
MC SYSTEM PARAMETER DOOR
1 Door open/close watching timer
Commands: Set and Add Default: 0 Min. value: 1 Max. value: 600 Programmable unit: 0.1 sec

SECTION 4 OPERATION DOOR AUTO OPEN/CLOSE SPEC

2-3. Ineffective M code commands

For the system where dual-palm starting and door closing sequences are linked, the door closing sequence starts as the dual-palm start button is pressed and, after confirmation of the door closed condition, the Program Start command is accepted. Therefore, the M code Door Close command in the program becomes unnecessary. The M code command is made ineffective to prevent entanglement, which would occur if the M code Door Close command remains effective.
[Specifications] The M code Door Close command (M32) is ignored without raising an alarm (immediately answered). Note that the M code Door Close command (M32) remains effective for the robot/loader inter­face type in the linked mode. Note that the M code Door Open command remains effective in any case.

3. Prevention of entanglement by automatic operation door

A rubber switch is provided at the contact part of the door edge and its status is continuously moni­tored to prevent entanglement by the operation door.

3-1. Content of sequence

(1) Front safety rubber switch check upon the issue of Door Close command
If entanglement has been detected when the Door Close command is given, the following alarm message appears and the door does not close regardless of the operation mode.
"1723 Alarm A Door interlock 10"
(2) Front safety rubber switch check during door closing sequence
If entanglement is detected during the door closing sequence, the door stops closing and starts opening regardless of the operation mode.
The door opening sequence ends when the "Door Open" LS turns on or the RESET button
is pressed.
After the door opening sequence is cancelled by the rubber safety door switch:
a. If the M code Door Close command is given:
If the Open command is given from the robot/loader:
"1723 Alarm A Door interlock 11"
b. If the Door Close command is given using the pushbutton, no alarm is raised.
When the door opening sequence is triggered by the rubber safety door switch input,
the door continues to open until the "Door Open" LS turns on regardless of the
pushbutton status.

Signal name Description Signal level
APC operation OK [iPWOK]
When “Pallet on APC” is ON in the link mode, this signal notifies the NC that the work is ready. If this signal goes OFF when the “System link mode” is ON, the NC immediately stops the APC operation.
When the APC operation OK signal goes
OFF during APC operation in the system link mode, the following alarm occurs:
“1774 Alarm A Robot/loader state 20”
If the APC operation OK signal is OFF in the
system link mode, the NC inhibits APC man­ual operations such as 1 cycle, return cycle, and 1 step operation, and turns OFF the APC operation enable LED.

SECTION 7 SEMI-DRY COOLANT UNIT

SECTION 7 SEMI-DRY COOLANT UNIT
This section describes the operation and behavior of a semi-dry unit (Bluebe EcoBooster EP Series).

1. Semi-Dry Coolant

1-1. Related Commands

The semi-dry coolant discharge can be specified with “the M code command and RT command in the same block” or “manual operation”. Regardless of whether the command is given with M code or by manual operation, the last-specified command remains effective.

1-2. M Code Command and RT Command in the Same Block

1-2-1. M Code Commands
M code Description
M285 Semi-dry coolant ON
M09 Semi-dry coolant OFF After axis movement
1-2-2. RT Command
On receiving an RT command, the machine turns ON and OFF the pump-driving solenoid valve and supplies oil by the amount required for the purpose of machining. The pump ON/OFF intervals (pump operation frequency) can be specified in 10 steps.
Command Format
Specify the RT command by entering RT=* (*: an integer between 1 and 10 inclusive) in the block which includes M285 in the part program. The larger is the RT command value, the more frequent is the pump operation. This results in increase in the oil supply amount.
