Cycle startup

4.14.1

General

To be able to work with the provided cycles, a minimum of prerequisites must be met by the
machine (hardware) and the control system (software).
These are described in the following sections.
4.14.2

Machine type

The external cylindrical grinding machines that are used have two linear axes (X, Z), a grind-
ing spindle (S1), with or without a measuring system and a workpiece spindle (S2).
The grinding tool can be mounted at an inclined, fixed angle to the X-axis.
There is a dresser in the machine working area for dressing the tools. The dressers are as-
signed to the grinding wheel. One wheel can be dressed with up to three dressers.
4.14.3

Hardware requirements

Other hardware requirements must be met by the grinding machine for the use of grinding
cycles.
One or two handwheels are required for motion overlay during setup.
There must be connection options for the following external equipment:
● Structure-borne noise device
● Measurement control
● Touch trigger probe
● 7 rapid inputs via MCPA for:
4.14.4

Software requirements

For the function of the cycles, all cycle variables and cycle macros of the tool box must be
loaded. Furthermore, the contents of the user data must be assigned meaningful values by
the machine manufacturer, such that the cycles can work with these values. Likewise, a
minimum scope of PLC functions must be implemented.
