Part Families-Q Parameters In Place Of Numerical Values; Application - HEIDENHAIN TNC 620 User Manual

Part families—Q parameters in place of numerical values
9.2 Part families—Q parameters in place of
numerical values

Application

The Q parameter function FN 0: ASSIGN assigns numerical values
to Q parameters. This enables you to use variables in the program
instead of fixed numerical values.
Example NC blocks
15 FN O: Q10=25
...
25 L X +Q10
You need write only one program for a whole family of parts,
entering the characteristic dimensions as Q parameters.
To program a particular part, you then assign the appropriate values
to the individual Q parameters.
Example: Cylinder with Q parameters
Cylinder radius:
Cylinder height:
Cylinder Z1:
Cylinder Z2:

R = Q1
H = Q2
Q1 = +30
Q2 = +10
Q1 = +10
Q2 = +50
Assign
Q10 is assigned the value 25
Means L X +25
