Operating sequence Switch on the power supply for the control system and the machine. Release all emergency stop buttons on the machine.
Page 16: Setting-Up
Setting-up 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.
Page 17 The figure below shows an example of the machine coordinate system of a turning 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.
Page 18: Setting Up Tools
The figure below shows an example of the workpiece clamped on the machine.

Page 54: Absolute/Incremental Dimensioning: G90, G91, Ac, Ic
Overview of typical dimensions The basis of most NC programs is a drawing with concrete dimensions. When implementing in a NC program, it is helpful to take over exactly the dimensions of a workpiece drawing into the machining program. These can be: ●...
Page 55: Dimensions In Metric Units And Inches: G71, G70, G710, G700
Absolute dimensioning G90 With absolute dimensioning, the dimensioning data refers to the zero of the coordinate system currently active (workpiece or current workpiece coordinate system or machine coordinate system). This is dependent on which offsets are currently active: programmable, settable, or no offsets. Upon program start, G90 is active for all axes and remains active until it is deselected in a subsequent block by G91 (incremental dimensioning data) (modally active).
Page 56: Radius/Diameter Dimensions: Diamof, Diamon, Diam90
8.2.4 Radius/diameter dimensions: DIAMOF, DIAMON, DIAM90 Functionality For machining parts, the positional data for the X-axis (transverse axis) is programmed as diameter dimensioning. When necessary, it is possible to switch to radius dimensioning in the program. DIAMOF or DIAMON assesses the end point specification for the X axis as radius or diameter dimensioning. The actual value appears in the display accordingly for the workpiece coordinate system.
Page 57 This results in the current workpiece coordinate system. The rewritten dimensions use this as a reference. The offset is possible in all axes. Note In the X-axis, the workpiece zero should be in the turning center due to the functions of diameter programming (DIAMON) and constant cutting speed (G96).

Page 62 The rotary axis cannot be programmed as it is occupied by a geometry axis and thus cannot be programmed directly as channel axis. Meaning TRANSMIT: Activates the first declared TRANSMIT function. This function is also designated as polar transformation. TRAFOOF: Deactivates an active transformation.
Page 63: Cylinder Surface Transformation (Tracyl)
Description Pole There are two ways of passing through the pole: ● Traverse the linear axis alone ● Traverse to the pole, rotate the rotary axis at the pole and traveling away from the pole Make the selection using MD 24911 and 24951. Information The turning center with X0/Y0 is designated as the pole.
Page 64 TRACYL transformation types There are three forms of cylinder surface coordinate transformation: ● TRACYL without groove wall offset (TRAFO_TYPE_n=512) ● TRACYL with groove wall offset: (TRAFO_TYPE_n=513) ● TRACYL with additional linear axis and groove wall offset: (TRAFO_TYPE_n=514) The groove wall offset is parameterized with TRACYL using the third parameter. For cylinder peripheral curve transformation with groove side compensation, the axis used for compensation should be positioned at zero (y=0), so that the groove centric to the programmed groove center line is finished.
Page 65 Note Set OFFN=0 once the groove has been completed. OFFN is also used outside of TRACYL - for offset programming in combination with G41, G42. Example: Tool definition The following example is suitable for testing the parameterization of the TRACYL cylinder transformation: Program code Comment Tool parameters...

Page 67 The linear axes are positioned perpendicular to one another. The infeed axis cuts the rotary axis. With groove wall offset (transformation type 513) Kinematics as above, but an additional longitudinal axis parallels to the peripheral direction. The linear axes are positioned perpendicular to one another. The velocity control makes allowance for the limits defined for the rotations.

See the following illustration for linear interpolation with rapid traverse from point P1to P2: Programming example N10 G0 X100 Z65 Note Another option for linear programming is available with the angle specification ANG=. (For more information, see Section "Contour definition programming (Page 96)".) Information Another group of G functions exists for moving into the position (see Section "Exact stop/continuous-path control mode: G9, G60, G64 (Page 82)").
Page 71: Linear Interpolation With Feedrate: G1
Remark: Write a new F word if you change G94 - G95. Information The G group with G94, G95 also contains the functions G96, G97 for the constant cutting rate. These functions also influence the S word. 8.3.3 Linear interpolation with feedrate: G1 Functionality The tool moves from the starting point to the end point along a straight path.

Page 76 See the following illustration for external and internal thread with cylindrical thread: Right-hand or left-hand thread Right-hand or left-hand thread is set with the rotation direction of the spindle (M3 right, M4 left). To do this, the rotation value must be programmed under address S or a rotation speed must be set. Programming Remark: Run-in and run-out paths must be taken into account for the thread lengths.
Page 77 See the following illustration for lead assignment for cylindrical, tapered and transversed thread: Tapered thread For tapered threads (2 axis values required), the required lead address I or K of the axis with the larger travel (longer thread) must be used. A second lead is not defined. Starting point offset SF= A starting point offset is required for the spindle if a multiple-start thread or a thread in offset sections is to be machined.
Page 78: Programmable Run-In And Run-Out Path For G33: Dits, Dite
See the following example of multi-block thread chaining: Axis velocity With G33 threads, the velocity of the axes for the thread length is determined on the basis of the spindle speed and the thread lead. The feedrate F is not relevant. It is, however, stored. However, the maximum axis velocity (rapid traverse) defined in the machine data cannot be exceeded.

Page 81: Fixed Point Approach
Fixed point approach 8.6.1 Fixed point approach: G75 Functionality By using G75, a fixed point on the machine, e.g. tool change point, can be approached. The position is stored permanently in the machine data for all axes. A maximum of four fixed points can be defined for each axis. No offset is effective.

Page 84: Acceleration Pattern: Brisk, Soft
8.7.2 Acceleration pattern: BRISK, SOFT BRISK The axes of the machine change their velocities using the maximum permissible acceleration value until reaching the final velocity. BRISK allows time-optimized working. The set velocity is reached in a short time. However, jumps are present in the acceleration pattern.
Page 85: The Third Axis
The third axis Prerequisite The control system itself must be designed for three axes. Functionality Depending on the machine design, the third axis can be required. These axes can be implemented as linear or rotary axes. The identifier for these axes is defined by the machine manufacturer (e.g. C). For rotary axes, the traversing range can be configured between 0 ...<360 degrees (modulo behavior) or -360 degrees/+360 degrees if there is no modulo axis is present.
Page 86: Spindle Positioning
Information If you write M3 or M4 in a block with axis movements, the M commands become active before the axis movements. Standard setting: Axis movements will only start once the spindle has accelerated to speed (M3, M4). M5 is also issued before the axis movement.
Page 87 The program advances to the next block if the end of motion criteria for the spindle or axes programmed in the current block plus the block change criterion for path interpolation are fulfilled. Synchronization In order to synchronize spindle movements, can be used to wait until the spindle position is reached.

Page 178 Explanation of the parameters PO1 and DM1 (starting point and diameter) These parameters are used to define the original starting point for the thread series. The starting point determined by the cycle itself and approached at the beginning using G0 is located by the run-in path before the programmed starting point (starting point A in the diagram on the previous page).
Page 179 IANG (infeed angle) By using parameter IANG, the angle is defined under which the infeed is carried out in the thread. If you wish to infeed at a right angle to the cutting direction in the thread, the value of this parameter must be set to zero. This means that the parameter can be omitted in the parameter list, as in this case the value is defaulted automatically with zero.

Page 183 Note To be able to use this cycle, a speed-controlled spindle with position measuring system is required. Sequence Position reached prior to cycle start: Starting position is any position from which the programmed thread starting point + run-in path can be approached without collision.
Page 184 When the thread depth is divided into infeeds with constant cutting cross-section, the cutting force will remain constant over all roughing cuts. In this case, the infeed will be performed using different values for the infeed depth. A second version is the distribution of the whole thread depth to constant infeed depths. When doing so, the cutting cross- section becomes larger from cut to cut, but with smaller values for the thread depth, this technology can result in better cutting conditions.
Page 185 Use the NUMTH parameter to define the number of thread turns with a multiple-turn thread. For a single-turn thread, the parameter must be assigned zero or can be dropped completely in the parameter list. The thread turns are distributed equally over the circumference of the turned part; the first thread turn is determined by the NSP parameter.

Infeed is carried out with constant cutting cross-section. At the end of thread a cut out of 7 mm is defined. 5 roughing cuts are carried out at a thread depth of 2.76 mm without finishing allowance.
