		Basis	Your SIEMENS 840D/810D with ManualTurn is state of the art and is
			manufactured in accordance with recognized safety regulations,
			standards and specifications.
		Add-on equipment	Using special add-on equipment and expanded configurations from
			SIEMENS, SIEMENS controls can be adapted to suit your specific
			application.
		Personnel	Only authorized and reliable personnel with the relevant training
			must be allowed to handle the control. Nobody without the necessary
			training must be allowed to work on the control, not even for a short
			time.
			The responsibilities of the personnel employed for setting, operating
			and maintenance must be clearly defined and supervised.
		Behavior	Before the control is started up, it must be ensured that the Operator's
			Guide has been read and understood by the personnel responsible.
			The operating company is also responsible for constantly monitoring
			the overall technical state of the control (faults and damage apparent
			from the outside and changes in response).
		Service	Repairs must only be carried out in accordance with the information
			given in the Service and Maintenance Guide by personnel trained

and qualified in the relevant field. The relevant safety regulations must be observed.

The following is contrary to the intended purpose and exonerates the manufacturer from any liability:

• Any use whatsoever beyond or deviating from the application stated in the above points.

• If the control is not in perfect technical condition, or is operated without awareness for safety or the dangers involved or without observing the instructions given in the instruction manual.

• If faults that can reduce safety are not remedied before the control is started up.

• Any modification, overriding or deactivation of equipment on the control used for the perfect functioning, unrestricted use or active and passive safety.

		1.1 The ManualTurn product
1.1		The ManualTurn product

The ManualTurn product with SINUMERIK 840D or SINUMERIK 810D is a CNC (Computerized Numerical Control) for turning machines used predominantly for conventional machining operations. The 810D is simple and reliable to operate so as to facilitate the task of the skilled machinist. All inputs are made in plain text in interactive dialog and displayed graphically for checking purposes, i.e. the lathe operator can examine the motional path of the tool before he starts the program.

The operator panel of the CNC allows you to implement the following basic functions (in conjunction with a machine lathe):

•Setting up and conventional turning with handwheels

•Longitudinal and taper turning, facing with feedrate per revolution and per minute

•Execution of finishing or roughing cuts on elementary contours

•Machining with cycles in single-cycle mode

•Creation of complex contours with the option of removing stock and finishing against the contour (option)

•Creation of parts programs for complete machining using EasyStep programming.

•Automatic creation of parts programs in the Teach In operating mode.

It is advisable to read Chapter 2 "Operation" carefully before working through the other sections.

All further sections are written on the premise that you have read and understood Chapter 2!

Depending on your requirements, operating modes MANUAL,

STRAIGHT, CONICAL, CIRCLE, CYCLE, STOCK REMOVAL,

CONTOUR and PROGRAM can be activated via

•an operating mode switch or

•the vertical soft key menu on the operator panel or

•illuminated keys.

Traversing directions

Control stick with rapid traverse key

The control stick allows axes X and Z to be traversed paraxially and at angles of 45°. The control stick is active in Setup mode and in the above mentioned operating modes.

•Illuminated keys.

As an alternative to the control stick, you can also use the illuminated keys to select the traversing direction.

The traversing velocities can be selected by means of a fixed feedrate and feed key, whereby the preselected feed axes traverse for as long as the JOG key is pressed. The set working feedrate can be substituted by this function.

2.5Operating system

General notes	Options for manual intervention as well as step-by-step machining of
	lathed parts are the principle features of turning machines controlled in
	the conventional manner (X, Z; one spindle).
	With the ManualTurn system, you enter travel commands in plaintext
	via simple input screen forms in a graphics-assisted dialog.
	The following machining modes are at your disposal:
	•	MANUAL
	•	STRAIGHT
	•	TAPER
	•	CIRCLE
	•	CYCLES
	•	STOCK REMOVAL
	•	CONTOUR
	•	PROGRAM

Machining possibilities With ManualTurn, workpieces can be machined as follows:

•conventionally with single-cycle machining

•automated with step chain programming using EasyStep

Single cycle machining You can parameterize the above modes (except for MANUAL and PROGRAM) as a single cycle and process them immediately with NC start, i.e. you can create a contour and then cut without having to create an entire EasyStep program.

Prerequisite for single-cycle machining is that no program is selected. An active program can be deselected by activating the "Program ON" soft key (PROGRAM mode). The "Accept" soft key is then no longer available in the single cycles.

Step chain programming with EasyStep

When generating an EasyStep program, each single cycle/individual element is created as a separate step in a machining chain (step chain) by "accepting" the parameters.

Each step is stored on one line and consists of the entered parameterization data with the associated element-specific icon. The completed machining sequence can be modified later.

Once all the machining sequence parameters have been set, the NC start key can be pressed to execute the sequence.

Under the Directory menu, PROGRAM mode offers a program management facility in which you can store the machining sequences you have created.

2.5.1 Operating modes

MANUAL

"Manual" mode in this case means conventional feed mode travel for longitudinal and taper turning and as well as facing. The travel direction is determined by the position of the control stick.

The reference points of the machine can also be approached in this mode.

STRAIGHT

Longitudinal turning and facing with automatic shutdown on arrival at the specified target position.

The C axis can also be traversed in this mode.

TAPER

Taper turning; the taper can be defined in three different ways.

The C axis can also be traversed in this mode.

CIRCLE

Radius machining; circular movements can be defined in three different ways.

CYCLE

The CYCLE machining mode provides you with DIN-based cycles for threads, undercuts and drilling operations in the form of simple parameterization displays.

The machine manufacturer may have added other special customized cycles to this group.

The program management function allows you to store your thread and thread undercuts and call them up again whenever you need them.

STOCK REMOVAL

Stock removal mode allows machining operations based on special stock removal and grooving cycles. The machine manufacturer may also incorporate special customized cycles.

CONTOUR

In CONTOUR mode you can create and cut free contours, as well as remove residual material.

With the program management function you can store contours and call them up again whenever you need them.
