SINUMERIK 840D sl Operation/Programming ShopTurn (BAT) – 08/2005 Edition
You have the option of teaching contour objects for rotation and
milling operations.
1. Creating a program
2. Programming contours and technology cycles
Program the desired contours and cycles and define the individual
contour elements (see "Creating a new contour", "Contour
rotation", and "Contour trimming").
3. Execution
Position the cursor on the desired work step and press the
"Execute" softkey.
A block search is automatically triggered.
4. NC Start
Fit the tool with "Cycle Start", and then start machining using the
"Cycle Start" key.
Program the next machining step the same way if the machining
provided the desired results, or repeat steps 2 through 4 for the
program block.
You can simulate machining before every execution in order to control
the machining results.
