1.5 Coordinate systems

Note

This documentation assumes an 802D standard machine control panel (MCP). Should you use a different MCP, the operation may be other than described herein.

1.5 Coordinate systems

As a rule, a coordinate system is formed from three mutually perpendicular coordinate axes. The positive directions of the coordinate axes are defined using the so-called "3-finger rule" of the right hand. The coordinate system is related to the workpiece and programming takes place independently of whether the tool or the workpiece is being traversed. When programming, it is always assumed that the tool traverses relative to the coordinate system of the workpiece, which is intended to be stationary.

Figure 1-2 Determination of the axis directions to one another; coordinate system for programming

Machine coordinate system (MCS)

The orientation of the coordinate system relative to the machine depends on the respective machine type. It can be rotated in different positions.

The directions of the axes follow the "3-finger rule" of the right hand. Seen from in front of the machine, the middle finger of the right hand points in the opposite direction to the infeed of the main spindle.

Figure 1-3 Machine coordinates/axes using the example of a milling machine

The origin of this coordinate system is the machine zero. This point is only a reference point which is defined by the machine manufacturer. It does not have to be approachable.

The traversing range of the machine axes can be in the negative range.

Workpiece coordinate system (WCS)

To describe the geometry of a workpiece in the workpiece program, a right-handed, rightangled coordinate system is also used. The workpiece zero can be freely selected by the programmer in the Z axis. In the X axis, it lies in the turning center.

1.5 Coordinate systems

Relative coordinate system (REL)

In addition to the machine and workpiece coordinate systems, the control system provides a relative coordinate system. This coordinate system is used for setting reference points that can be freely selected and have no influence on the active workpiece coordinate system. All axis movements are displayed relative to these reference points.

Note

The actual value in the associated coordinate system can be activated and displayed in the "Position" operating area using the "MKS/WKS REL" vertical softkey.

Clamping the workpiece

For machining, the workpiece is clamped on the machine. The workpiece must be aligned such that the axes of the workpiece coordinate system run in parallel with those of the machine. Any resulting offset of the machine zero with reference to the workpiece zero is determined along the Z axis and entered in a data area intended for the settable work offset. In the NC program, this offset is activated during program execution, e.g. using a programmed G54.

A solid circle on the screen indicates that the measuring probe has been tripped.

After activating the probe, the axis direction key must be released.

After releasing the axis direction key, the control system automatically creates and starts an internal measuring program in the program memory.

This measuring program causes the probe to be approached maximum three times in order to deliver measured values to the control system.

If after the third approach of the probe no measured value is transferred to the control system, a message will appear in the display to inform the operator that no measured values could be recorded.

Press the "Measure tool" softkey. The control system will switch to the <POSITION> operating area and open the dialog box for measuring the work offsets. The selected axis is displayed as a softkey with a blue background.

Then scratch the workpiece with the tool.

If scratching is not possible or if you cannot reach the appropriate point with the tool (e.g. when using a spacer), enter the clearance between the tool and the workpiece surface in the "Clearance" field.

To determine the offset, the direction of movement of the tool must be taken into account for the active tool. If no tool is active, the "Radius" field is hidden.

The simulation is described in the "Simulation" section.

The "Recompile" function offers you the following options:

● "Recompile" a cycle call

To recompile a cycle call, the cursor must be positioned on the cycle call line in the program.

Using the "Recompile" function, the cycle screen form is re-called for a cycle that was parameterized using a softkey function (e.g. "Drilling" > "Drilling center." -> CYCLE81). This function decodes the cycle name and prepares the screen form with the relevant parameters. If there are any parameters beyond the range of validity, the function will automatically use the default values. After closing the screen form, the original parameter block is replaced by the corrected block.

● "Recompile" a "Free contour" programmed by means of the "Contour" function

The contour, that was parameterized using the "Contour" softkey function, is called again using the "Recompile" function.

Therefore, position the editor cursor in a command line of the contour program.

This function decodes the parameterized contour and prepares the screen form with the relevant parameters.

When recompiling, only the contour elements that were generated using the "Contour" function are created again. In addition, only the texts that were added using the "Free text input" input field are recompiled. Any changes you made directly in the program text are lost. However, you can subsequently insert and edit user-defined texts, which will not be lost.

Execution of the part program is simulated on the HMI using this function. The axes of the machine are not traversed. In contrast to standard simulation, recording is started and terminated via softkeys.

The contour simulation is based on pure calculations and is, therefore, generally faster in the case of more extensive NC programs.

Prerequisite

The control system is in RESET condition.
