Creating G code programs
3.3 Programming the blank
The blank is needed for the simulation and the simultaneous recording.
Iin the operating area "Program" press the HSK 1.6
"Various" to open the vertical softkey bar with
"various" functions.
Here, press the VSK 1.1 "Blank" to open the input
mask for defining the blank.
Fill in the needed parameters and press the VSK 8
"Accept" to take over the blank settings into the pro-
gram (see section 5.3) or abort with pressing the
VSK 7 "Cancel".
3.4 Programming a cycle
Cycles (technologies) can be programmed easily by using softkeys and
parameter masks.
In the operating area "Program"
press the HSK 1.2 "Drill.", or
press the HSK 1.3 "Turning", or
press the HSK 1.4 "Cont. turn.", or
press the HSK 1.5 "Mill."
to open the cycles for drilling, turning, contour turn-
ing and milling.
2. Select the corresponding technology (cycle) and/or a
position pattern and accept for inserting the cycle
into the G code program.
See modules B611 - "Drilling", B618 - "Milling", B626
- "Contour turning" und B634 - "Turning".
3.5 Inserting G code commands and programming the program end
In the G code editor window several functions for inserting, copying and
cutting G code commands are available.
In the operating area "Program" press the HSK 1
"Edit" to program a part program with G code com-
mands or to edit an already loaded program.
2. Program the program end (M02/M30) (see section
4).
Press the HSK 1.7 "Simulation" to simulate the ma-
chining (see section 6).
- OR -
Press the HSK 1.8 "NC Execute" to load the pro-
gram to the NC memory, ready for machining
(see section 7).
