  • Page 5: Part 1 Programming Basics

    Programming Basics Part Programming The Process of Programming First, examine the drawing and determine such conditions as the workpiece material, the size of the workpiece to be prepared, the tool diameter, the tool type, the proper turning speed, and the proper feed rate. Then determine the sequence in which to cut. The cutting sequence is in extremely important point for carrying out cutting efficiently and safely.
  • Page 6 Program Structure A program can be classified as a “main program” or a “subprogram.” Main Program Ordinarily, the machine operates according to instructions from a main program. A subprogram, which is described next, is basically specified within a main program. Subprogram If a main program can be likened to the trunk of a tree, then subprograms are branches.
  • Page 7 : A block containing only a “%” must appear at the start of the data. This notifies the machine of the start (or end) of the data. Such a block may optionally be present at the end of the data. When it appears at the end of the data, the data is specified automatically.
  • Page 8 Data Output from the Computer Before outputting data, make the appropriate cable connections to link the computer and the machine. Refer to the user's manuals for each model for explanations on making connections and connection specifications. The character code systems supported by the machine are ASCII, ISO, and EIA. ASCII is an abbreviation for the “American Standard Code for Information Interchange.”...

  • Page 9: Coordinate Systems

    Coordinate Systems The machine uses the Cartesian coordinate system, which has three axes — the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis — each of which is perpendicular to the other two. Machine Coordinate Systems A machine coordinate system is a coordinate system determined mechanically with reference to the PNC-3200. The origin point in a machine coordinate system is a point specific to the PNC-3200, and cannot be moved.
  • Page 10 2. Setting a workpiece coordinate system using G54 to G59 This method is used to set up to six workpiece coordinate origin points and select a coordinate system from among these by means of the program. The workpiece coordinate systems 1 through 6 are set by specifying the amount of shift (the amount of workpiece origin point offset) from the machine coordinate origin point to the workpiece coordinate origin point.
  • Page 11 G10 can be used to set not only the amount of shift for all workpiece coordinate systems, but also amounts of offset for each individual workpiece coordinate system. Workpiece coordinate system 1 Amount of offset by G10 Workpiece Workpiece origin coordinate system 1 point offset amount Machine coordinate origin point...

  • Page 12: Setting Coordinate Values (Amount Of Movement)

    Setting Coordinate Values (Amount of Movement) The addresses “X, Y, and Z” or “I, J, and K” are used, followed by the coordinate specification. X, Y, and Z: These specify coordinate values for positioning (G00), linear interpolation (G01), and the like. X, Y, and Z represent the coordinates for the X, Y, and Z axes, respectively.

  • Page 13: Setting The Measurement Unit

    Setting the Measurement Unit G20 and G21 can be used to set the measurement unit used for movement, feed rate, and offset amounts. G20: Inch input G21: Millimeter input Either G20 or G21 is set at the start of the program, before setting the coordinate system. G20 and G21 should not be changed during the course of a program.

  • Page 14: Program Number

    Program Number A main program or subprogram calls and executes another program by specifying a program number. The program number appears at the start of the program. A program number is specified by appending an integer of up to four digits after the letter “O.” The range for program numbers is from 0001 to 9999 -- “0”...

  • Page 15: Positioning (G00)

    Positioning (G00) This moves in a straight line at maximum speed from the current tool position to the specified point. The word for positioning is “G00.” The addresses X, Y, and Z are used to specify the destination point. When X, Y, and Z are all specified, the three axes move simultaneously.
  • Page 16 Clockwise Counterclockwise Even when the point for the destination and the center of the circle are identical, circular interpolation is carried out as shown below according to the direction of interpolation. (7000, 17000) Counter Clockwise clockwise rotation rotation G17G02X7000Y17000I12000J5000 (12000, 5000) G17G03X7000Y17000I12000J5000 (0, 0) There is another method, which involves specifying the radius of the circle instead of specifying the circle’s center point.

  • Page 17: Cutter Compensation (G40, G41 And G42)

    Cutter Compensation (G40, G41 and G42) The movement of the tool specified by the program is the path taken by the center of the tool. Because the tool has a certain thickness (i.e., a certain diameter), it will over-cut by an amount equal to its radius if the coordinates on the drawing are input just as they are. To cut a shape as specified by the drawing, the tool must be made to move at a place which shifted away by a distance equal to the tool radius.

  • Page 18: Spindle Motor Control (M03 And M05)

    Spindle Motor Control (M03 and M05) These turn the spindle motor on or off. The M function is used for this. M03 and M05 are used to control the spindle motor. M03 starts rotation of the spindle, and M05 stops it. These functions are activated at the end of the block in which they are specified together.
  • Page 19 Error message Description The value of a parameter exceeds the allowable range, or the value of the radius for circular Bad Parameter interpolation or the amount of offset is not correct. Only a parameter has been set. The code which specifies the parameter has not been set. Address Undefined A parameter has not been set.

  • Page 26 Helical Interpolation When an axis is added to the coordinate point for the destination of interpolation, movement in the form of a helix is carried out, as shown below. This is called helical interpolation. A three-dimensional curve is cut by performing a synchronized linear operation along the added axis while carrying out circular interpolation.

When positioning (G00) or linear interpolation (G01) has been specified, cutter compensation should be started or canceled. 5. When cutter compensation for circular interpolation is performed, parameters cannot be changed using the display with operation paused.

Similarly, G42 performs offset to the right-hand side relative to the direction of forward movement. The direction of offset cannot be changed while cutter compensation is in progress.
