“Probe cycles” select key (Optional)

“Canned” & “Data” cycle select key (Modal)

“Cycle Call” select key (Non-Modal)Activates the last Modal Canned Cycle Definition (Not Data Definition)

“Label Set” select key (LBL ?)Sets a “Label” around information which may be repeated. Label numbermust be a unique number up to 3 digits long and the information following

this label start must be finished with “LBL 0”.

“Label Call” select key (CALL LBL ?)Calls the required “LBL ?” and prompts the programmer for the amount ofrequired repeats.

NOTE: There is a procedure to how this works safely. If no repeats are necessarythe “Call LBL ?” can be input anywhere in the program. If there are repeats on the“Call LBL ?” and do not follow straight after the specified label “LBL 0” line thenthe “Call LBL ?” MUST be enveloped around it’s own “Label ?”, the repeats takenaway from the repeated “Call LBL ?” line and then added to the 2nd “Call LBL ?”with the same repeats less one. (As Follows)LBL 1“program information in LBL 1”LBL 0“further program information”LBL 2CALL LBL 1 (label requires repeating 10 times)LBL 0CALL LBL 2 REP 9 (9 times repeat because LBL 2 has been read once)

The easiest alternative is to program the “CALL LBL 1” with no repeats 10individual times one after the other or to ensure that the label is written in theprogram after the program end M2.

“Stop” select key (Non- Modal)Prompts the programmer for a Non-Modal miscellaneous “M” codefunction.

Cutting Condition Commands

Cutting conditions should be carefully examined when preparing a program, sincethese conditions greatly influence cutting efficiency and accuracy. The cutting

conditions that determine the rate of metal removal are the “Cutting Speed”, the“Feedrate”, the “Depth of Cut” & the “Width of Cut”. These cutting conditions andthe nature of the material to be cut determine the power required to take the cut. The

cutting conditions must be adjusted to stay within the power available on the machinetool to be used. These conditions also effect the tool life, which would need

consideration.

The following cutting conditions are required for all tooling used:

Spindle Speed – R.P.M. (Revolutions per Minute)Designated with an S command.

400 rpm ⇒ S400

Formula

R.P.M. = Constant Surface Speed (C.S.S.) x 1000π x Diameter

C.S.S. can be found in all manufacturers tooling guides.

Feedrate – mm/min. , inch/min. , feed/tooth, feed/rev.Designated with an F command.

400 mm/min. ⇒ F400

Formula

Feed = Number of teeth x feed/tooth (pitch) x R.P.M.

Feed/tooth can be found in all manufacturers tooling guides.


Table of Miscellaneous Codes (M Functions)a) There are two types of programming codes:

Non-Modal - The programmed action code is active only in the block in which it isspecified & is self-canceling.

Modal - The programmed action code remains active when programmed for everyline of program and until it is replaced by another action code of the same group type.

M00 – Program Stop:After executing the block where the M00 is commanded, automatic operation stopsthe machine including the feed, spindle and coolant. Pressing the Cycle Start buttonresumes all operations.M01 – Optional Program Stop:M01 is identical to M00 but is actioned by a switch in the screen. When this switch is“ON” then the code acts as M00, but when the switch is “OFF” the code is ignoredand operation continues as programmed. Applications include: Checks on dimensions,Checks on tools and to remove chips during machining.

Pecking (Cycle 1)1) The tool drills from the “Current Position” to the first PECKING DEPTH at theprogrammed FEED RATE F.2) When it reaches the first pecking depth, the tool retracts in rapid traverse FMAXto the starting position and advances again to the first PECKING DEPTH minusthe advanced stop distance t.3) The advance stop distance is automatically calculated by the control: At a total hole depth of up to 30mm :t = 0.6mm At a total hole depth exceeding 30mm :t = hole depth / 50.Maximum advanced stop distance = 7mm.4) The tool then advances with another infeed at the programmed FEED RATE F.5) The TNC repeats this process (1 - 4) until the programmed TOTAL HOLEDEPTH is reached.6) After a DWELL TIME at the bottom of the hole, the tool is returned to thestarting position in rapid traverse FMAX for chip breaking.

NOTE: Program a positioning block for the starting point (hole center) in theworking plane with RADIUS COMPENSATION RO.

Program a positioning block for the starting point in the tool axis (SET-UPCLEARANCE above the workpiece surface).

The sign (+ or -) for the cycle parameter TOTAL HOLE DEPTH determines theworking direction.

NOTE: Check the position of the tool tip when you program a spindle orientation tozero degrees. Align the tool tip so that it is parallel to a coordinate axis. Select aDISENGAGING DIRECTION in which the tool moves away from the edge of thehole.


Universal Drilling (Cycle 203)1) The TNC positions the tool in the tool axis at rapid traverse FMAX to the SET-UPCLEARANCE above the WORKPIECE SURFACE COORDINATE.2) The tool drills to the first PLUNGING DEPTH at the programmed FEED RATE.3) If you have programmed chip breaking, the tool then retracts by 0.2mm. If you areworking without chip breaking, the tool retracts at the RETRACTION FEED RATEto SET-UP CLEARANCE, remains there - if programmed - for the entered dwelltime, and advances again in FMAX to 0.2mm above the first PLUNGING DEPTH.4) The tool then advances with another peck at the programmed FEED RATE F.

⇒ RETRACTION FEEDRATE Q208 - Traversing feed rate of tool when retractingfrom the hole. If zero is entered the tool retracts at FMAX.


Back Boring (Cycle 204)1) The TNC positions the tool in the tool axis at rapid traverse FMAX to the SET-UP CLEARANCE above the WORKPIECE SURFACE COORDINATE.2) The TNC then orientates the spindle to the zero degree position with an

orientated spindle stop, and displaces the tool by the OFF CENTERDISTANCE.

3) The tool is then plunged into the already bored hole at the FEED RATE FORPRE-POSITIONING until the tooth has reached SET-UP CLEARANCE onthe underside of the work piece.

4) The TNC then centers the tool again over the bore hole, switches on the spindleand the coolant and moves at the FEED RATE FOR BORING to the DEPTHof bore.

5) If a DWELL TIME is entered, the tool will pause at the top of the bore hole andwill then be retracted from the hole again. The TNC carries out anotherorientated spindle stop and the tool is once again displaced by the OFFCENTER DISTANCE.

Tapping (Cycle 2)1) The thread is cut in one pass.2) Once the tool has reached the TOTAL DEPTH, the direction of spindle rotation isreversed and the tool is retracted to the starting position at the end of the DWELLTIME.3) At the starting position, the direction of spindle rotation reverses once again.


Program a positioning block for the starting point in the tool axis (SET-UPCLEARANCE above the work piece surface).


A floating tap holder is required for tapping. It must compensate the tolerancesbetween feed rate and spindle speed during tapping process.

When in cycle, the spindle speed override is disabled.

For tapping right hand threads activate the spindle with M3, for left hand threads useM4.

⇒ SETUP CLEARANCE - (Incremental) Distance between tool tip (at startposition) and work piece surface. Standard value = 4 times the thread pitch.

⇒ DWELL TIME IN SECONDS - Enter a value between 0 and 0.5 seconds toavoid wedging of the tool during retraction.

⇒ FEED RATE F - Traversing speed of the tool during tapping.

The feed rate is calculated as follows: F = S x PWhere:F is the feed rate.S is the spindle speed in RPM.P is the thread pitch.


Rigid Tapping (Cycle 17)1) The thread is cut in one pass.2) Once the tool has reached the TOTAL DEPTH, the direction of spindle rotation isreversed and the tool is retracted to the starting position at the end of the DWELLTIME.3) At the starting position, the direction of spindle rotation reverses once again.




A floating tap holder is required for tapping. It must compensate the tolerancesbetween feedrate and spindle speed during tapping process.

When in cycle, the spindle speed override is disabled.

For tapping right hand threads activate the spindle with M3, for left hand threads useM4.

The TNC calculates the feedrate from the spindle speed and the entered pitch. If thefeed override is adjusted during tapping, the feedrate will be adjusted automaticallyto suit.

⇒ SETUP CLEARANCE - (Incremental) Distance between tool tip (at startposition) and workpiece surface. Standard value = 4 times the thread pitch.

⇒ TOTAL HOLE DEPTH - (Incremental) Distance between workpiece surfaceand bottom of the hole (tool tip).

⇒ PITCH - Thread pitch. Algebraic sign differentiates between right hand and lefthand threads.

+ = Right hand thread,- = Left hand threads.


Thread Cutting (Cycle 18)Cycle 18 THREAD CUTTING is performed by means of spindle control. The toolmoves with the active spindle speed from its current position to the entered DEPTH.As soon as it reaches the end of thread, spindle rotation is stopped. Tool approach tothe hole surface and departure from the hole bottom must be programmedseparately.

NOTE: The TNC automatically activates and deactivates spindle rotation.Do not program M3 or M4 before the cycle call.

When in cycle, the feed rate override is disabled.

The TNC calculates the feedrate from the spindle speed and the entered pitch. If thespindle speed override is adjusted during threading, the feedrate will be adjustedautomatically to suit.

⇒ TOTAL HOLE DEPTH - (Incremental) Distance between current toolposition and the end of the thread.

⇒ PITCH - Thread pitch. Algebraic sign differentiates between right hand and lefthand threads.

+ = Right hand thread (M3 with negative depth)- = Left hand threads (M4 with negative depth)


Tapping with chip breaking (Cycle 209)1) The TNC positions the tool in the tool axis at rapid traverse FMAX to the SET-UP CLEARANCE above the WORKPIECE SURFACE COORDINATE. Thereit carries out an orientated spindle stop.2) The tool moves to the programmed infeed depth, reverses the direction of thespindle rotation and retracts by a specific distance or completely for chip release,dependant on the definition.3) It then reverses the direction of spindle rotation again and advances to the next infeed depth.4) The TNC repeats this process (2 – 3) until the programmed thread depth isreached.5) The tool is then retracted to SET-UP CLEARANCE, and if programmed, to the2ND CLEARANCE with FMAX.6) The TNC stops the spindle turning at SET-UP CLEARANCE


The sign (+ or -) for the cycle parameter THREAD DEPTH determines the workingdirection.

At the end of the cycle the spindle comes to a stop. Before the next operation, restartthe spindle with M3 (or M4).

⇒ SETUP CLEARANCE Q200 - (Incremental) Distance between tool tip (atstart position) and work piece surface.

work piece surface.⇒ 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE Q204 - (Incremental) Co-ordinate in the tool

axis at which no collision between tool and work piece (clamping devices) canoccur.

⇒ DEPTH FOR CHIP BRKNG Q257 - (Incremental) In feed per cut. The toolwill tap to the DEPTH in one movement if a) the PECKING DEPTH equals theTOTAL HOLE DEPTH. b) the PECKING DEPTH is greater than the TOTALHOLE DEPTH.

⇒ DIST FOR CHIP BRKNG Q256 – Retraction rate for chip breaking. The TNCmultiplies the pitch by this value to retract the tap by this new amount before thenext peck. If Q256 = 0 then the TNC retracts the tool fully for chip breakage.

⇒ ANGLE OF SPINDLE Q336 – (Absolute) Angle at which the TNC positionsthe tool before machining the thread.

** If the program is interrupted during cycle, the TNC will display the soft key“MANUAL OPERATION”. By pressing this key, retraction of the tool ispossible. Simply press the positive axis direction button of the active tool

axis.**

Linear Pocket Milling (Cycle 4)1) The tool penetrates the workpiece at the starting position (pocket center) andadvances to the first PECKING DEPTH.2) The cutter begins milling in the positive axis direction of the longer side (onsquare pockets, always starting in the positive Y axis) and then roughs out thepocket from the inside out.3) This process (1 - 3) is repeated until the DEPTH is reached.4) At the end of the cycle, the TNC retracts the tool to the starting position.

NOTE: Program a positioning block for the starting point (pocket center) in theworking plane with RADIUS COMPENSATION RO.


The sign (+ or -) for the cycle parameter MILLING DEPTH determines the workingdirection.

This cycle requires a center cutting endmill or a pilot hole drilled prior to the Pocketmilling cycle.


⇒ MILLING DEPTH - (Incremental) Distance between workpiece surface andbottom of the pocket.

⇒ PECKING DEPTH - (Incremental) Infeed per cut. The tool will advance tothe DEPTH in one movement if :a) the PECKING DEPTH equals the TOTALHOLE DEPTH. b) the PECKING DEPTH is greater than the MILLING DEPTH.

⇒ FEED RATE FOR PECKING - Pecking feedrate of the tool during penetration.⇒ FIRST SIDE LENGTH - Pocket length parallel to the main axis of the working

plane.⇒ SECOND SIDE LENGTH - Pocket width.⇒ FEED RATE F - Milling feedrate.⇒ DIRECTION OF THE MILLING PATH - DR+ = Climb milling with M3,

DR- = Conventional milling with M3.

The stepover factor is parameter (7430) and is preset by the machine manufacturers.


Linear Pocket Finishing (Cycle 212)1) The TNC automatically moves the tool in the tool axis to SET-UPCLEARANCE, or - if programmed - to the 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE, andsubsequently to the center of the pocket.2) From the pocket center, the tool moves in the working plane to the starting pointfor machining. The TNC takes the ALLOWANCE and the tool radius into accountfor calculating the starting point. If necessary, the TNC plunge cuts into the pocketcenter.3) If the tool is at the 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE, it moves in rapid traverseFMAX to SET-UP CLEARANCE, and from there advances to the first PLUNGINGDEPTH at the FEED RATE FOR PLUNGING.4) The tool then moves tangential to the contour of the finished part and, usingclimb milling, machines one revolution.5) After this, the tool departs the contour tangential and returns to the starting pointin the working plane.6) This process (3 - 5) is repeated until the programmed DEPTH is reached.7) At the end of the cycle, the TNC retracts the tool in rapid traverse to SET-UPCLEARANCE, or - if programmed - to the 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE, andfinally to the center of the pocket (end position = starting position).

NOTE: The sign (+ or -) for the cycle parameter DEPTH determines the workingdirection.This cycle requires a center cutting endmill if it is being used to rough and finish (alow plunging feedrate will be required).Minimum size of pocket: 3 x tool radius.

Area Clearance cycles SL

SL Cycles allows the machining of non-uniformed contours and can include islandsand pockets.

A machined pocket can be composed of a maximum of 12 sub-contours.

The subcontours are stored as label numbers entered into Cycle 14 CONTOURGEOMETRY. The TNC calculates all the machining areas to be cleared from theinformation stored in these labels.

The SL cycle has a memory capacity of 128 blocks of information.

Characteristics of the labels⇒ Coordinate transformations are allowed.⇒ The TNC ignores all feed rates and M functions.⇒ Compensation is applied directly on the first positioning line of the label.

Characteristics of the Fixed Cycles⇒ The actual positioning to the working plane must be done first. The TNC

automatically positions the tool to the starting position of the pocket.The TNC takes into account any finishing values contained in the Cycle 6 ROUGHOUT.

Contour Geometry (Cycle 14)

Note: Cycle 14 is DEF active which means that it becomes effective as soon as itis defined in the part program.

A maximum of 12 label numbers are permissible.

All labels must be assigned after the M2 program block

⇒ LABEL NUMBERS FOR THE CONTOUR:Enter all the label numbers for the individual subprograms that are to be superimposedto define the contour. Confirm every label number with the ENT key. When allnumbers are entered conclude with the END key.

Pilot Drill (Cycle 15)

ProcessSame as Cycle 1 Pecking.ApplicationCycle 15 is for PILOT DRILLING of the cutter infeed points. It accounts for theALLOWANCE FOR SIDE and the ALLOWANCE FOR FLOOR. The cutter infeedpoints also serve as starting points for roughing.

Note: A positioning block to the machining surface is required.

⇒ SET-UP CLEARANCE - (Incremental) Distance between the tool tip and theworkpiece surface.

⇒ TOTAL HOLE DEPTH - (Incremental) Distance between the workpiece surfaceand the hole bottom.

Rough-Out (Cycle 6)

Process1) The TNC positions the tool above the first cutter infeed point in the machiningplane, taking into account any FINISHING ALLOWANCE.2) The TNC then moves the tool to the first PECKING DEPTH at the FEED RATEFOR PECKING.

The contour is then fully roughed out by machining the external contours of all thelabels data first, then the remaining material. The machining takes place at thePECKING DEPTH. When an internal contour (island) is met by the tool, the tool willrapid traverse to SET-UP CLEARANCE, rapid traverse to the next milled contourspace and infeed to the pecking depth to continue. This process continues untilMILLING DEPTH is reached.


A center cutting endmill is required if the PILOT DRILLING cycle is not used.

CHAPTER 10


Pattern cyclesThe TNC offers 2 cycles for machining hole patterns.

Cycle Softkey

220 - Circular Pattern.

221 - Linear Pattern.

Circular Pattern (Cycle 220)

1) At rapid traverse, the TNC positions the tool from its current position to thestarting point for the first machining operation.The tool is positioned in the following sequence:a) Move to 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCEb) Approach starting point in the working plane.c) Move to SET-UP CLEARANCE above the workpiece surface.2) From this position the TNC executes the last defined fixed cycle.3) The tool then approaches the starting point for the next machining operation on astraight line at SET-UP CLEARANCE (or 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE).4) The process (1 - 3) is repeated until all maching operations have been executed.

NOTE: Cycle 220 is DEF active, which means that it automatically calls the lastdefined fixed cycle.

If Cycle220 is combined with one of the fixed cycles 200 - 215, the SET-UPCLEARANCE, workpiece surface and 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE that youdefined in Cycle 220 will be effective for the selected fixed cycle.

⇒ CENTRE IN 1ST AXIS Q216 (Absolute) - Centre of the Pitch Circle in themain axis of the working plane.

⇒ CENTRE IN 2ND AXIS Q217 - (Absolute) Centre of the Pitch Circle in thesecondary axis of the working plane.

⇒ PITCH CIRCLE DIAMETER Q244 - Diameter of the PCD.⇒ STARTING ANGLE Q245 - (Absolute Polar) Angle between the main axis of

the working plane and the starting point for the first machining operation on thePCD.

⇒ STOPPING ANGLE Q246 (Absolute Polar) - Angle between the main axis ofthe working plane and the starting point for the last machining operation on thePCD. Do not enter the same value for the STOPPING ANGLE and STARTINGANGLE. If you enter the STOPPING ANGLE greater than the STARTINGANGLE machining will be carried out counterclockwise, otherwise machiningwill be clockwise.

⇒ STEPPING ANGLE Q247 - (Incremental) Angle between two machiningoperations on a PCD. If a zero value is entered, the TNC will calculate theSTEPPING ANGLE from the STARTING and STOPPING ANGLES. If a valueother than zero is entered, the TNC will not take into account the STOPPINGANGLE. The sign for the STEPPING ANGLE determines the working direction(- = clockwise).

⇒ NUMBER OF REPETITIONS Q241 - Number of machining operations on aPCD.


⇒ WORKPIECE SURFACE COORDINATE Q203 - (Absolute) Coordinate ofworkpiece surface.

⇒ 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE Q204 - (Incremental) Additional retraction.


Linear Pattern (Cycle 221)

1) At rapid traverse, the TNC positions the tool from its current position to thestarting point for the first machining operation.The tool is positioned in the following sequence:a) Move to 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCEb) Approach starting point in the working plane.c) Move to SET-UP CLEARANCE above the workpiece surface.2) From this position the TNC executes the last defined fixed cycle.3) The tool then approaches the starting point for the next machining operation on astraight line at SET-UP CLEARANCE (or 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE).4) The process (1 - 3) is repeated until all maching operations have been executed.The tool is located above the last point on the first line.5) The tool subsequently moves to the last point on the second line where it carriesout the machining operation.6) From this position the tool approaches the starting point for the next machiningoperation in the negative main axis direction.7) This process (5 - 6) is repeated until all machining operations in the second linehave been completed.8) The tool then moves to the starting point of the next line.9) All subsequent lines are processed in a reciprocating movement.

NOTE: Cycle 220 is DEF active, which means that it automatically calls the lastdefined fixed cycle.

If Cycle220 is combined with one of the fixed cycles 200 - 215, the SET-UPCLEARANCE, workpiece surface and 2ND SET-UP CLEARANCE that youdefined in Cycle 220 will be effective for the selected fixed cycle.

Coordinate Transformations cyclesOnce a contour has been programmed, you can position it onthe workpiece at various locations and in different sizesthrough the use of coordinate transformations. The TNCprovides the following coordinate transformation cycles:

Cycle Softkey

7 - Datum Shift - For shifting contours directly within the programor from a Datum table.

8 - Mirror Image - For mirroring contours.

10 - Rotation - For rotating contours in the working plane.

11 - Scaling - For increasing or reducing the size of contours.

26 - Axis specific Scaling (TNC426 only) - For increasing orreducing specific axis on contours.

Effect of Coordinate Transformations:A coordinate transformation becomes effective as soon as it is defined. It remains ineffect until it is redefined or cancelled.

Coordinate Transformation CancellationCoordinate transformations are cancelled bya) redefining the default state i.e. Scaling = 1.0b) Execute a miscellaneous function M2, M30 or an End Of Program Block.c) Select a new program.

CHAPTER 12


Helical InterpolationA helix is a combination of a circular movement in a main plane and a linearmovement perpendicular to this plane.Applications1) Large-diameter internal and external threads.2) Lubrication grooves.

Programming a HelixAlways enter the same algebraic sign for the direction of rotation DR and theincremental total angle IPA. The tool may otherwise move in a wrong path anddamage the contour.

For the total angle IPA, you can enter a value from -5400 degrees to +5400degrees. If the thread has more than 15 revolutions, program the helix in aprogram section repeat.

⇒ POLAR COORDINATES-ANGLE - (Incremental) Enter the total angle oftool traversing along the helix. After entering the angle, identify the tool axiswith an axis selection key.

⇒ Enter the COORDINATE for the height of the helix in incremental dimensions.⇒ Direction of rotation DR- Counterclockwise, DR+ Clockwise⇒ RADIUS COMPENSATION R0/RL/RR according to the following table.

CHAPTER 13


Tool Length Measurement methods

Methods of measuring the length of the tool from the gauge line (spindle nose) to thetool tip, for entry into the Tool Def. program line or into the length column of the tooltable.

1) Using the machine to measure the tool (with a setting block).a) traverse the spindle nose with no tool inserted and using a feeler block set thespindle nose to the top of the feeler block. Enter a datum set for the Z axis as Zero.

Setting Block

TABLE

SpindleFeeler Block

Z Datum set zero

b) Using MDI toolchange the appropriate tool requiring setting and traverse the tooltip to the feeler block. Using the “Program Editing” menu, highlight, using the left &right arrow keys, the L? part of the Tool Def. Line. Pressing the Data Transfer keywhile Z is highlighted in the position display will transfer the tool lengthautomatically.

Setting Block

TABLE




2) Using the machine to measure the tool (using the component workpiece).

*NOTE: When using this method it is advisable that the longest tool is used to setthe Z axis zero (datum) position.

a) Using MDI toolchange the appropriate tool requiring setting and traverse the tooltip to the feeler block. Using the “Program Editing” menu, highlight, using the left &right arrow keys, the L? part of the Tool Def. Line. Pressing the Data Transfer keywhile Z is highlighted in the position display will transfer the tool lengthautomatically.When setting the datum using the longest tool, the L? value regarding this tool will bezero. All tools set after this to the workpiece will have a value which is relative to thesetting tool. If the setting tool has to be changed for any reason then all tools will have

to be reset.
