Programming of Cycles

11.1

General information

Cycles etc. can be created manually (without computer) using the @ code. Difficult problems
are solved with the WS 800 A configuring workstation in the CL800 programming language.
The following machining cycles are available in the user memory submodule (UMS) as
permanently stored subroutines:
SINUMERIK 880T:
• L93 Grooving cycle
• L94 Undercut cycle
• L95 Stock removal cycle with relief cutting elements
• L96 Stock removal cycle without relief cutting elements
• L97 Thread cutting cycle
• L98 Deep-hole drilling cycle
• L99 Chaining of threads (4-point thread cutting cycle)
SINUMERIK 880M:
• Drilling cycles L81 to L89
• L900 Drilling patterns
• L901 Milling pattern "GROOVE"
• L902 Milling pattern "ELONGATED HOLE"
• L903 Milling rectangular pocket
• L904 Milling pattern "CIRCULAR GROOVE"
• L905 Drilling pattern "SINGLE HOLE"
• L906 Drilling pattern "ROW OF HOLES"
• L930 Milling circular pocket
For the SINUMERIK 880T/M various measuring cycles are additionally available as an Option.
In addition to the possibility of checking the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece, measuring
with a CNC machine offers further applications:
• Detection of tool breakage
• Measuring of the tool geometry
• Determination of workpiece clumping tolerances
• Compensation for factors influencing machining etc.
The machining cycles are described in the "Programming Guide,
The measuring cycles are described in the "User's Guide SINUMERIK
The following sections are intended to introduce the user to programming with the @ code.
