Multiple Part Example - Mazak STX SC L PLUS CONTROL Training Manual

MULTIPLE PART EXAMPLE

There are several ways to repeat a part over an entire sheet. If this must be done manually without the nesting
features of a CAD system and "MACRO" is not available, the following method is most commonly used.
THE ZERO POINT FOR THIS EXAMPLE IS AT THE LOWER LEFT CORNER OF THE PART.
O100(main program)
G90G54X0.Y0.;
M98P110L4;
G91G28Z0.;
G28X0.Y0.;
M30;
O110(sub program)
M98P120L6;
G91G00Z2.0;
G90G00X__Y__;

In this example the parts are cut starting at the lower left corner of the sheet and cut in the "y" plus direction. Each
row starts at the bottom of the sheet.
RAPID TRAVEL TO START POSITION ON SHEET
CALL SUB #110 TO CUT (4) ROWS
RAPID "Z" AXIS HOME
RAPID "X" AND "Y" HOME
CALL PART PROGRAM #120 TO CUT (6) PARTS IN ROW
RAISE "Z" AXIS 2.0" OR MORE FOR MOVEMENT FROM ROW TO ROW
RAPID MOVEMENT FROM ROW TO ROW (PART WIDTH + WEB)
REFERENCE POINT
PART GEOMETRY
RAISE "Z" AXIS 2.0" OR MORE FOR MOVEMENT FROM PART TO PART
