The use of subroutines and parameter calculation makes it possible not only to describe the contour of a shape but also to take into account the full spectrum of machining technology. At the programming stage the workpiece is broken down into geometrically definable partial solids or base shapes. Examples of a base shape include a cylinder, hemisphere, cone or rhonbus, each of which has its own machining program. The overall shape is thus made up of a series of subroutines, which are linked together in a main program in line with the machining sequence. The following base shapes are available: ~ Cone ~ Cylinder = Plane inclined at random angle - Parallelepiped (rhombus) = Sphere - spherical segment - spherical cup ~ Torus - Ellipsoid - elliptical sector Each of these base shapes can be arbitrarily defined in space in relation to the workpiece zero. On the basis of these base shapes, additional cycles are made available which make it possible to machine composite shapes. The subroutine calculates the planes of section between the two partial solids and checks whether machining can be performed with a given cutter. Composite shapes are as follows: - Plane > Plane - Surface - Sphere ~ Surface - Cone or cylinder + Torus = Cone or cylinder ~ Sphere - Cone or cylinder = Cylinder Cone or cylinder Double parallelepiped Mould Making Cycles Consequently, the first step in drawing up 2 die milling program is the selection of the base shapes or corresponding subroutines. Once the software for all cycles exceeds 100 Kbytes, only cycles required immediately should be loaded in the NC part program memory. The second step is to describe the partial shape by means of parameters. In the case of a semicylinder, for instance, the starting and end positions of the cylinder axis in space are determined in relation to the workpiece zero. The two radii are then determined, in addition to the starting and end angles of the cylinder if only segments are to be machined. Thus the geometrical shape is described using less than twelve parameters. Modifying a single parameter makes it possible to transform a concave shape ‘into a convex shape. This is of particular importance when producing male and female dies. The mould making cycles also provide all process values required for complete machining. It is thus possible to differentiate between three types of machining: ~ Roughing, starting from the specified blank dimensions to the defined finishing al lowance = Rough-finishing, possibly with a modified programmed infeed per cut = Snooth-finishing, with prior tool change and tangential return to contour AM 86 "IAll idle passes and return motions are performed in rapid traverse to reduce the machining tine. An additional parameter is used to specify the surface roughness. The circle then calculates the cut segmentation for roughing, if necessary making provision for a specified cut cross-section or infeed per cut. The feedrates in the x, y and z directions may also be programmed separately to ensure optimum matching to the machine. Use can be made of radius cutters or alternatively end-milling cutters with or without corner radius, depending on the cycle. While the actual tool length is taken into account during roughing, the cycle performs three-dimens ional cutter radius Compensation during finish-mach ining. In particular in the case of spheres and ellipses, the direction of cutter travel is calculated to ensure up-cut milling, while a single parameter can be used with other shapes. In the cycle an integral diagnostic program monitors the following: = Tool type and geometry with respect to the machining requirements - Missing geometrical data - Possible planes of section between two partial solids with composite shapes In the event of an error an alarm is output in plain text. 12 AM186 ‘Mould Making Cyclesa 1910: Tool Change Program In all cycles it is possible to carry out a tool change between rough and Finish-machining. The tool change is automatically called by the cycle if "Delete block" is not active. If, however, "Delete block" becomes active, the cycle performs rough and Finish-machining without any interruption. In the event of a tool change, the tool change position, spindle stop and other auxiliary functions must be programmed in the L910 subroutine. Parameter assignment and calling of the appropriate cycle and auxiliary functions must then be reprogrammed in the main program for further machining. Note on L910 progr 19 After rough-machining the tool is moved to approx. 3 mm above the programed workpiece. The Z axis should first be run up and then all other movements programmed to ensure collision-free travel to effect the tool change. Zero offset Zero offset (20) for setting the workpiece zero must be written in the jst Z0 (G54) in the mould making cycles. Al] mould making cycles use the 4th 20 (G57). Use is also made of the 3rd Z0 (G56) in the L921, L925 and L927 cycles. R_parameters SINUMERIK 3M: R parameters ROO - R99 are used for all cycles. SINUMERIK 810M: R parameters ROO - R99 and sometimes parameters R200 - R215 are used. ‘Mould Making Cycles Tool offset Tool offset (T0) (D32) must be kept free for the mould making cycles since it is used by these cycles. TO D32 is reserved and not available to the user. All other tool offsets are available for T0 programming. Example: L911 with and without tool change.

The following shapes can be programmed concave or convex: = Mathematical cone = Mathematical cylinder - Arbitrary shape with cylindrical enveloping surface - Arbitrary shape with conical enveloping surface - Arbitrary shapes with radius inversion Parameters RO7 and RO9 as well as the coordinates of points 0] and 02 must be modified to switch from a convex to a concave shape (and vice versa). R16 is used to determine whether rough-nachining is to be performed prior to finish-machining. Either the surface fineness or number of angular increments can be programmed for finish-machining. In the former case the number of angular increments is calculated automatically as a function of the permissible surface fineness. R18 and R19 are used to determine the feedrates in the X-Y plane and Z axis. On completion of machining the program sequence is interrupted for a tool change. For finish-machining parameters R16 and R22 must be input with the value 0. "Delete block" suppresses the tool change stop. Rough and finish-machining are then performed without any interruptions.

If the starting and end angles of the two circles are identical (mathematical shape), a shorter calculation time can’be ensured by inputting R14 = Mould Making CyclesProcess functions: RIS Parameter assignment of angular increment for finish-machining. There are two possibilities: R15 greater than 5 = number of angular increments for finish-mach ining. RIS smaller than or equal to 5 = fineness of surface. The controller then calculates the nunber of angular increments. The angular increments must be selected so that the radian measure between the increments is smaller than the cutter radius. The angular increments can be increased accordingly with R21 for rough-mach ining. R16 Different dimensions must be input, depending on the shape of the enveloping curve: Convex shape: R16 = largest al lowance over enveloping curve Concave shape: R16 = radius of smallest end circle Part convex, part concave shape: R16 = radius of concave circle RI7 = infeed for rough-machining Infeed is in the radial direction.

R20 The centre point of the radius cutter traverses to the height of the boundary lines, i.e. the lands are milled beneath the sector boundary line commensurate with the cutter radius. R21 = Magnification factor for angular increments during rough-machining. A number greater than or equal to | must be input in R21. R22 = Finishing allowance The finishing allowance is the residual allowance after rough- machining. It is the infeed for the Finishing cut in finish-machining.

The angle between axes X and Y may be positive or negative. The angle between surface F and the X-Y plane is always positive. The program start must be at the upper plane. If the plane is inclined at an angle B the material above 0 must be removed prior to program call. The tool is then advanced to 3 rm above 0.

Parameter R25 makes it possible to transform a programmed convex shape ‘into a concave shape, and vice versa. Example: A convex shape is progranmed. The coordinates of points 01, 02, 03 are known. Plan view The new points 0'1, 0'2, 0'3 must be input for the corresponding concave shape. With R21 = 0, R23 = 0 and R25 = 0 the subroutine calculates the points automatically. If the top surfaces are parallel to the X-Y plane, the lateral edges can be milled with radii or chamfers as a function of R12. R12 Without sign: Radius R12- (Negative): Chamfer The dimensions of the chamfers and radii are usually small in relation to the lengths of the sides. With the following shapes, radii and chamfers of the order of the lengths of the sides can be milled: = Top and base surfaces are octagonal, with equal side lengths. - Top and base surfaces have four straight and four quadrantal sides with equal radii. These shapes can be tested by means of “DRY RUN An alarm is displayed in the event of an error. For rework finish-machining can be performed without prior rough- machining.

Nodifying parameter R20 makes it possible to transform a convex programmed shape into a concave shape. Rough-mach ining may be performed on a convex and concave shape with or without finishing allowance. Finish-machining may also be performed without prior rough-mach ining (important for rework ing). A convex shape can be machined using a radius cutter or end-milling cutter. Only a radius cutter may be used for a concave shape. An alarm message is output when an ‘incorrect type of cutter is used. During rough-mach ining the workpiece is approached radially in rapid traverse. Approach and withdrawal during finish-machining are tangential for a convex shape and radial for a concave shape, as well as in special cases involving a convex shape (RO9 = R10). The feedrates can be programed separately in the X-Y plane and Z direction. Traversing movements not involving machining are performed in rapid traverse. R21 determines whether machining terminates at the land or is continued to a deeper point conmensurate with the cutter radius. On completion of rough-machining the program sequence may be interrupted fora tool change. The value 0 must be input for R13 for finish-mach ining.

The cone or cylinder may be in any position on or in the sphere. The sphere can be limited vertically as required. The shape can be programmed to be both convex and concave. Note: The top surface of the mounted cone or cylinder must be machined prior to calling L925. Rough-machining may be performed either with or without finishing allowance for finish-machining. Should rework be required, Finish-machining may be performed without prior rough-mach ining. Machining can be performed using a radius cutter or end-milling cutter with or without corner radius. When a radius cutter is used, the radius of the cutter is automatically taken into account by the controller on completion of rough-machining at the bottom edge of the cone and sphere. The feedrates for the X-Y axes and Z axis can be input separately. For a convex shape machining can be performed to a point level with the land or deeper commensurate with the cutter radius. On completion of rough-machining the program sequence is interrupted for a tool change. For finish-machining the value 0 mst be input in parameter R16. "Delete block" suppresses the tool change. Rough and finish-machining is then performed without any interruptions.

If the value in R15 is <5, this value refers to the surface tolerance. In such a case the cycle generates an angular increment as a function of the surface tolerance or, in the case of other cycles, a profile increment. Mould Making Cycles - Machining Inmediate finish-machining without rough-machining is possible with all cycles. If the allowance over the contour is slightly greater than the finishing allowance, machining without roughing can be performed parallel to the contour with the finishing allowance by assigning specif ic parameters in a number of cycles, e.g. 1923 R15 = Allowance R14 = Finishing allowance R19. = Rough/finish-machining In order to ensure the above type of machining, R15 must be programmed with 0, R14 with the finishing allowance and R19 with 1 (rough-mach ining).
