Hand Wheel Feeding - Adtech ADTECH4 CNC Series Maintenance Manual

4.4 Hand wheel feeding

In hand wheel mode, rotate the hand wheel to make the machine perform single step or continuous
motion. Determine the feed by testing the hand wheel signal of the handheld box. In hand wheel mode, the
feeding axis and feeding unit are determined by the axis selection signal of the handheld box.
The hand wheel feeding step follows:
(1) Press the mode switch key [Hand wheel/Single step] to select hand wheel operation;
(2) Rotate the dip switch on the hand wheel to select handheld axis (X, Y, Z, A);
(3) Rotate the increment dip switch on the hand wheel to select the moving amount (0.1, 0.01, 0.001);
(4) Rotate the hand wheel to move the machine tool. The tool moves certain distance every time you
rotate the hand wheel for a scale. (For example, if you select X axis in step ⑵ and select 0.01 in step ⑶, the
tool moves 0.01mm every scale). Rotate the handle continuously to move the machine tool on this axis
continuously.

Note:
The hand wheel feeding mode controls only one coordinate axis every time; the faster the hand wheel rotates,
the faster the machine tool moves.
