Sequence editor

The graphical programming is performed via a graphic interactive sequence editor. Each
program line represents a technological sequence (such as: face turning, centering, drilling,
tapping) or geometric data required for the sequences (position patterns or contours).
Graphical programming offers, in comparison to DIN/ISO programming, a compact and
comprehensible program overview.
Entering individual sequences requires no
knowledge of DIN/ISO. All required technical
and geometric parameters are entered in
screen forms. Simple, intuitive programming
with sequences can always be expanded very
flexibly by inputting DIN/ISO blocks and
control functions.
Highlights
● Intuitive program input, without knowledge of DIN/ISO or Operating Manual
● Compact, clearly arranged machining programs
● Reducing the programming time by graphical input masks and copying / inserting
