Legal information
Legal information
Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
with a safety alert symbol, indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the corresponding information is not taken into
account.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation for the specific task, in particular its warning notices and
safety instructions. Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of

Preface
Standard scope
This documentation only describes the functionality of the standard version. Extensions or
changes made by the machine tool manufacturer are documented by the machine tool
manufacturer.
Other functions not described in this documentation might be executable in the control. This
does not, however, represent an obligation to supply such functions with a new control or
when servicing.
For the sake of simplicity, this documentation does not contain all detailed information about

1.5 Coordinate systems
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.

1.5 Coordinate systems
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.

1.5 Coordinate systems
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 Y axis. In the Z axis, it
lies in the turning center.

Figure 1-5 Workpiece Coordinate System
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 Y 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.

Note:
Cylindrical grinding begins with S2.
Flat grinding begins with S1.
The conversion is done internally, for an entered value of 1.
For standard wheels (vertical and inclined), the D numbers are assigned a fixed meaning
(refer to the "Offset values" figure below). Based on the geometry data, this allocation is
always set by default for setting up and dressing.
For wheel having a free contour, the user is always responsible for the cutting edges. Only
when a wheel is newly created or for deleted wear values, the cutting edge values are set by
default once, depending on the dressing angle. The default setting is made for angle = 0, as
in the case of a simple vertical wheel, i.e. the odd cutting edges (D1, D3, D5) are on the lefthand side and the even cutting edges (D2, D4, D6) on the right-hand side, taking into
account the entire wheel width.
The default setting for inclined wheels is arranged so that always all reference points are
identical. There is no distinction between left-hand and right-hand sides. The user has the
option of redefining the cutting edges in a dressing subroutine. For this, the NC syntax must
be followed. Any changes will be accepted only after the first complete dressing stroke and
not while shaping. Reference points are compensated as it is done for standard wheels.
Diameter and width monitoring will also be active only after both diameter and wear are
included in the particular D number. Thus the user can modify additional reference point in
the free contour. However, the left-hand and right-hand cutting edges regime must be
maintained since the compensations are always taken into account (left-hand side negative,
right-hand side positive) as they are for standard wheels.

Figure 4-21 Manual grinding with oscillation data in X and Z
The following oscillation data is possible:
● Position 1 (start)/2 (end):
– Use the numeric keypad to enter position 1/2 in the relevant input field.
– Use traversing key <X> or <Z> on the machine control panel to approach position 1/2
and use vertical softkey "Position 1"/"Position 2" to transfer the position to the input
field (teach in).
● Dwell time at reversal point position 1 (in seconds if there is a tool spindle present;
otherwise, in revolutions)
● Feedrate X (mm/min)

Exit manual grinding.
Special features in connection with "Measure workpiece"
In order to be able to intervene in the grinding process during manual grinding, the PLC keys
for "Interruption" and "Dressing" are active during manual grinding.
The PLC key "Handwheel" ends manual grinding on the starting position of the infeed axis.
By aborting manual grinding with PLC key "Handwheel", the last position of the infeed axis is
saved. This saved position of the infeed axis will be calculated with a following "
workpiece (Page
46)".
Measure
Measuring is possible only for the infeed axis from manual grinding and only once directly
after manual grinding. If "Measure workpiece" is aborted or another axis is set as the last
infeed axis, then every axis with any axis positions can be calibrated again.

● Total runtime: Total runtime of NC programs in AUTOMATIC mode
In the AUTOMATIC mode, the runtimes of all programs between NC START and end of
program / RESET are summed up. The timer is zeroed with each power-up of the control
system.
● Program runtime Active tool operating times
The runtime between NC Start and End of program / Reset is measured in the selected
NC program. The timer is reset with the start of a new NC program.
● Feedrate runtime
The runtime of the path axes is measured in all NC programs between NC START and
end of program / RESET without rapid traverse active and with the tool active. The
measurement is interrupted when a dwell time is active.
The timer is automatically reset to zero in the case of a "Control power-up with default
