2.3 NC machine data

The tool orientation change caused by an orientable tool holder becomes effective even

if no tool is active. This bit is only effective if bit 10 is also set.

Bit20:

If this bit is zero, and if the tool parameter $TC_DP10 (holder angle) and/or $TC_DP24

(clearance angle) contain the value 0, the following default values are used as the

basis for the function CUTMOD to calculate the modified cutting-edge position and the

modified cutting-edge direction:

Holder angle 112.5 degrees for cutting-edge positions 1 - 4

Holder angle 67.5 degrees for cutting-edge positions 5 - 8

Clearance angle 22.5 degrees for cutting edge positions 1 - 4

Clearance angle 67.5 degrees for cutting-edge positions 5 - 8

If this bit is set, an alarm is output in the cases mentioned. This bit is used to

establish compatibility with older software releases.

Bit21:

If this bit is zero, any existing rotation in the part proportion of the tool carrier

is taken into account for CUTMOD with tool carrier when modifying the cutting edge

position. Frames are ignored.

If this bit is 1, in the place of the part proportion of the tool carrier, the

active total frame is taken into account with CUTMOD with tool carrier with

modification of the cutting edge position. The total frame can also contain a part

proportion of the tool carrier.

Bit22:

If this bit is zero, with an active kinematic transformation, a wear component of the

tool that cannot be transformed (see SD42935 $SC_WEAR_TRANSFORM) is taken into

account statically with the position of the transformation that was valid at the time

of the tool selection.

If this bit is 1, with an active kinematic transformation, a wear component of the

tool that cannot be transformed (see SD42935 $SC_WEAR_TRANSFORM) is taken into

account in real-time with the relevant current position of the transformation.

Description:

Indicates for each channel max. two number ranges for tool types that are treated as

forming tools. Therefore individual ranges are possible both for grinding and for

turning tools.

The first range is specified by the first and the second number, the second range by

the third and fourth number.

If the first number is not smaller than the second one (the same applies for the third

and fourth number), no range will be defined, but two individual numbers will be

specified instead.

The numbers 400 through 599 are permissible (tool type numbers for turning and

grinding tools), and also value 0 (no tool type number defined).

Examples:

400 405

590 596 : Tool types 400-405 and 590-596 are contour tools

410 400

590 596 : tool types 400, 410 and 590-596 are contour tools

Description:

This machine data determines in ISO mode M (G43 / G44) the way in which length

compensations programmed with H are processed.

Mode A

Tool length H always acts on the third geometry axis (usually Z)

Mode B

Tool length H acts, depending on the active plane, on one of the three geometry axes.

This means with

G17 on the 3rd geometry axis (usually Z)

G18 on the 2nd geometry axis (usually Y)

G19 on the 1st geometry axis (usually X)

In this mode, compensations in all three geometry axes can be configured through

multiple programming, i.e. through the activation of one component, the length

compensation possibly active in another axis is not deleted.

Mode C

The tool length acts, independent of the active plane, on the axis that has

simultaneously been programmed with H. Otherwise, the response is the same as with

mode B.

Description:

This machine data activates the handwheel override in tool direction.

When this machine data is set, a handwheel override is active in the axis that is

assigned to length L1 of the active tool, in the direction defined by tool orientation.

Example:

G17 is active; the tool is a milling tool; tool length L1 is therefore assigned to the

Z axis (the 3rd geometry axis).

When the tool (e.g. with active 5-axis transformation) is turned around the Y axis by

90 degrees, so that it shows in X direction, a handwheel override becomes active in

the 3rd axis in the X axis.

Bit 0 = 1:

The Safety Integrated setpoint limitation is already taken into account in Look Ahead.

It is used to calculate a block-wide limitation of the path velocity which acts in

addition to the other limitations (e.g. override).

Bit 1 = 1:

The function of bit 0 is extended so that, from the Safety Integrated setpoint

limitation, various limits of the path velocity are calculated for various areas of

the block. In comparison to the functionality of bit 0, this enables the axis velocity

to run nearer (but still below) the Safety Integrated setpoint limitation.

Bit 2 = 1:

Reserved

Bit 3: Deceleration response on approaching conditional stops (inc. for clamping,

WAIT marks, protection areas) if extended Look Ahead is used ($MC_LOOKAH_FFORM[i]=1).

Bit 3 = 0:

Description:

The MD defines how significantly the IPO buffer control (FIFOCTRL) should influence

the path feedrate with the buffer full.

0.0 means that the IPO buffer control, for a full IPO buffer stops limiting the path

feedrate. This shortens the machining time, but it can increase the risk of the IPO

buffer running empty.

1.0 means that the IPO buffer control, with full IPO buffer continues to control the

path feedrate, and therefore avoids the IPO buffer becoming empty faster. This results

in minor fluctuations of the IPO buffer fill level. However, a longer machining time

must be expected.

Values between 0.0 and 1.0 permit a smooth, seamless transition from the old to the

new response.

If a length is set for this MD that is significantly shorter than the default length

orientation smoothing with large tolerances. If this length is reduced, the block

buffer for the orientation smoothing (MD28590 $MC_MM_ORISON_BLOCKS) usually also has

The units, tens, hundreds and thousands digits have different meanings.

The following possibilities are available:

The units digits of this data define the type of smoothing: rotary axis or vector

smoothing.

xx0: The type of smoothing is defined by the active G code of the 51st G code group:

283

SINUMERIK machine and setting data

smoothing.

xx1: Vector smoothing irrespective of the active G code of the 51st G code group

xx2: Rotary axis smoothing irrespective of the active G code of the 51st G code group

The tens digits can change the effect of the smoothing:

x0x: Smoothing takes place along the entire path length.

x1x: Smoothing takes place homogeneously along the traversing length of the

orientation axes.

x2x: Tolerance changes become active block-synchronously. In the other case, a change

of tolerance becomes active incrementally over a defined path length. As a rule, this

leads to a more homogeneous progression of the orientation. This setting option only

plays a role if the blocks are subdivided (hundreds digit of this machine data 1xx).

If the blocks are not subdivided, any tolerance change always becomes active block-

synchronously.

The hundreds digits can be used to set whether the smoothing works on the programmed

original blocks or on suitably split blocks:

0xx: The programmed blocks are not subdivided. The effect of the orientation smoothing

is very dependent on the programmed block structure.

1xx: The programmed blocks are subdivided so that the orientation smoothing can

generate a homogeneous progression of the orientation.

Only those blocks are subdivided, in which a compressor (COMPCAD, COMPCURV,

COMPON) is active.

2xx: The programmed blocks are subdivided so that the orientation smoothing can

generate a homogeneous progression of the orientation.

All program blocks are subdivided, irrespective of whether a compressor

(COMPCAD, COMPCURV, COMPON) is active in it or not.

The thousands digit can be used to set how the tolerance is specified for the

orientation smoothing:

0xxx: The tolerance is specified according to the usual rules. This means that when

OTOL = <...> is programmed, the value thus programmed becomes active, otherwise the

value of SD $SC_ORISON_TOL becomes active. The G0 tolerance factor is always

calculated in (value of MD20560 $MC_G0_TOLERANCE_FACTOR or the value

programmed with STOLF = <...>.

1xxx: The tolerance is always specified with SD42678 $SC_ORISON_TOL, irrespective of

whether OTOL = <...> was programmed.

2xxx: The G0 tolerance factor is not included in the calculation. This is the case

both for the tolerance specified with OTOL = <...> as well as with SD42678

$SC_ORISON_TOL.

The two numerical values can be combined with one another.

x3:

Combination of the two options 01 and 02. This means that G643 uses the

tolerances SD42465 $SC_SMOOTH_CONTUR_TOL and SD42466 $SC_SMOOTH_ORI_TOL. All other

axes are smoothed with an axis-specific tolerance.

x4:

G643 uses the smoothing length programmed with ADIS= or ADISPOS=. The

specification of possible axis-specific tolerances or contour and orientation

tolerances is ignored.

0x:

G642 uses axis-specific tolerances; these are set with the axis-specific

MD33100 $MA_COMPRESS_POS_TOL.

1x:

G642 uses the contour tolerance for smoothing the geometry axes. The axis-

specific tolerances in MD33100 $MA_COMPRESS_POS_TOL are used for smoothing all other

axes.

2x:

The orientation movement with G642 is smoothed using the angular tolerance

SD42466 $SC_SMOOTH_ORI_TOL. The axis-specific tolerances in MD33100

$MA_COMPRESS_POS_TOL are used for smoothing all other axes.

3x:

Combination of both options 10 and 20. This means that G642 uses the tolerances

SD42465 $SC_SMOOTH_CONTUR_TOL and SD42466 $SC_SMOOTH_ORI_TOL. Other axes are smoothed

with an axis-specific tolerance.

4x:

G642 uses the smoothing length programmed with ADIS= or ADISPOS=. The

specification of possible axis-specific tolerances or contour and orientation

tolerances is ignored.

Possible values of the hundreds digit (specification of path velocity for smoothing):

0xx:

A profile of the limit velocity is calculated within the smoothing range

from the specified maximum values for acceleration and jerk of the axes or path

involved. This can lead to an increase in

path velocity in the smoothing range and consequently to an acceleration

of the axes involved.

1xx:

A profile of the limit velocity is not calculated for smoothing blocks with

G641. Only a constant limit velocity is specified. In the case of smoothing with G641/

G642, this prevents the axes involved accelerating in the

smoothing range. However, this setting may lead to smoothing blocks being

traversed at a velocity that is too low, especially in the case of long smoothing

ranges.

2xx:

No velocity profile for G642 and G645 (see the above scenario for

description).

4xx:

The "effective" path velocity in a smoothing block will remain constant,

if possible, as long as the dynamic response of the axes permits this. Unlike the

default setting, the smoothing blocks are also interpolated as a path with this

setting.

Possible values for the thousands digit (configuration of G644):

0xxx:

When smoothing with G644, the maximum deviations of each axis specified in MD

COMPRESS_POS_TOL are adhered to. If the dynamic response of the axis allows, the

specified tolerance may not be fully utilized.

1xxx:

When smoothing with G644, the smoothing distance is specified.

2xxx:

When smoothing with G644, the maximum frequency at which the smoothing movement of

each axis occurs is limited. The maximum frequency is specified in MD32440

When smoothing with G644, neither the tolerance nor the smoothing distance is

monitored. Each axis traverses around a corner with the maximum possible dynamic

response. With SOFT, both the maximum acceleration and the maximum jerk of each axis

are observed. With BRISK, the jerk is not limited; instead, each axis traverses with

the maximum possible acceleration.

4xxx:

When smoothing with G644, the maximum deviations of each axis specified in MD

COMPRESS_POS_TOL are adhered to. In contrast to the value 0xxx, the specified

tolerance is fully utilized where possible. The axis then does not reach its maximum

possible dynamic response.

5xxx:

When smoothing with G644, the smoothing distance is specified (ADIS or ADISPOS). In

contrast to the value 1xxx, the specified smoothing distance is also fully utilized

where possible. The axes involved then might not reach their maximum dynamic response.

Possible values for the ten-thousands digit (various special setting options for G641/

G642/G645):

0xxxx:

The velocity profiles of the axes in the smoothing range are defined without jerk

limitation when BRISK is active, and with jerk limitation when SOFT is active.

1xxxx:

The velocity profiles of the axes in the smoothing range are always defined with jerk

limitation no matter whether BRISK or SOFT is active.

2xxxx: When smoothing tangential block transitions with G645, "counter motion" may

occur when moving along the contour. This can be avoided if circles are involved. If

this function is activated, the circles involved are reduced by the set tolerance. As

a consequence, the smoothed contour runs on the inner side of the tolerance band and

"counter motion" is avoided.

4xxxx:

When smoothing with G641/G642 and G645, the smoothing movements of the

orientation axes are made with vector interpolation if possible, this is conditional

upon vector interpolation being active in both the blocks involved and the active

orientation transformation permitting this (e.g. by pole handling).

By default, the orientation axes are always smoothed by means of rotary

axis interpolation.

The values of the units, tens, hundreds and ten-thousands digits are added.

The values of the thousands digit are interpreted individually.

this case, in both blocks it is switched to rotary axis interpolation. Depending on

Description:

A block transition is normally only smoothed with G64x when the path velocity at block

transition is reduced by the overload factor set in MD32310 $MA_MAX_ACCEL_OVL_FACTOR.

When SOFT is active, the maximum jerk occurring at block transitions is also limited

by MD32432 $MA_PATH_TRANS_JERK_LIM. This means that the effect of smoothing with G64x

depends on the values set for the overload factor and possibly for the maximum jerk.

By setting MD20490 $MC_IGNORE_OVL_FACTOR_FOR_ADIS = TRUE, a block transition can be

smoothed with G64x, irrespectively of the values set for the overload factor.

Description:

This MD is used to configure the way jumps of the slave axis are processed in curve

tables. A jump of the slave axis results from the presence of a movement of the slave

axis in a segment of the curve table with no corresponding movement of the master axis.

The jumps of the slave axis may be programmed directly, or they are created internally

in the control.

These segments may be created especially if a curve table with active tool radius

compensation is generated.

The following configurations are possible:

No curve tables are created that contain a jump of the slave axis. If a jump of

the slave axis occurs, alarm 10949 (CTAB_NO_LEADMOTION) is issued and program

processing is terminated. This setting is compatible with previous software versions.

Curve tables containing a jump of the slave axis may be implemented. If a jump

of the slave axis occurs, alarm 10955 (CTAB_NO_LEADMOTIONWARNING) is issued without

terminating program processing.

Curve tables with jumps of the slave axis are implemented without issuing an

alarm or a note.

Description:

This machine data is used to specify the permissible absolute circle error [mm].

When a circle is programmed, both conditions (that the distances from the programmed

center point to the start and end points (circle radius) must be the same and that the

center point of the circle must be located on the perpendicular bisector of the

straight line connecting the start and end points (perpendicular bisector of the

circular plane)) apply.

The fact that the circular parameters can be freely programmed means that these

conditions are not usually met exactly in the case of circle programming with I, J,

and K (the circle is "overdefined").

The maximum permissible difference between the two radii that is accepted without an

alarm, as well as the distance between the programmed center point of the circle and

the perpendicular bisector described above, is defined by the larger value in the

following data:

• MD21000 $MC_CIRCLE_ERROR_CONST

• Start radius multiplied by MD21010 $MC_CIRCLE_ERROR_FACTOR

This means that for small circles the tolerance is a fixed value (MD21000

$MC_CIRCLE_ERROR_CONST), and for large circles it is proportional to the start radius.

Related to:

MD21010 $MC_CIRCLE_ERROR_FACTOR

(circle end point monitoring factor)

In the context of the predefined tolerances, conflicting circle data is compensated

essentially by moving the center point of the circle. Please note that the deviation

between the programmed center point and the actual center point can reach the order of

magnitude set with machine data MD21000 $MC_CIRCLE_ERROR_CONST and/or MD21010

Description:

This MD is used to set the response for ORIPATH, i.e. path-relative interpolation of

The various digits of this machine data are used to activate different functions for

ORIPATH.

The tens digit of this MD enables specification of the way in which the programmed

LEAD and TILT angles are interpreted.

This setting option is also significant without active ORIPATH if offsets have been

programmed for the LEAD and TILT angles

(with $P_OFF_LEAD and $P_OFF_TILT or $AC_OFF_LEAD and $AC_OFF_TILT).

Meaning of the units digit: Activation of "true" path-relative orientation

interpolation

xxx0:

The tool orientation has the relation to the path tangent and the normal vector

programmed with LEAD and TILT only at the end of the block; within the block, the

orientation does not follow the path tangent. This corresponds to the response in SW

release 6.xx.

xxx1:

The tool orientation relation to the path tangent and the surface normal vector

programmed with LEAD/TILT is retained throughout the block. Meaning of the tens digit:

Interpretation of the TILT angle.

Meaning of the tens digit: Interpretation of the LEAD and TILT angles. This applies

both to the angles programmed with LEAD and TILT with path-relative orientation

interpolation (ORIPATH),

as well as to offsets of the LEAD and TILT angles, which can also be programmed

without ORIPATH by means of $P_OFF_LEAD and $P_OFF_TILT or $AC_OFF_LEAD and

$AC_OFF_TILT.

With path-relative orientation, the coordinate system is formed by the two vectors

path tangent and normal vector. If an offset is applied to a programmed orientation,

the current orientation itself takes over the role of the normal vector. A plane is

then formed by the current orientation and the path tangent, in which the rotation is

made perpendicularly with the LEAD angle or

the TILT angle.

Description:

This MD defines how the change in orientation in the case of vector interpolation is

treated if the orientation runs through the pole taper, which is defined by

MD24540,24640,25240,35340 $MC_TRAFO5_POLE_LIMIT_1,2,3,4.

Vector interpolation is present, if tool orientation is interpolated independent of

the kinematics, e.g. by means of large circle interpolation (orientation is swiveled

in a plane), taper interpolation or through interpolation of a 2nd reference point on

the tool (ORICURVE), and not directly the orientation axes.

In the pole, the pole axis can have any position. For large circle interpolation,

however, this axis requires a certain orientation.

If the start orientation is equal or close to the pole orientation and the end

orientation of the block lies outside the tolerance circle defined by machine data

TRAFO5_POLE_LIMIT_n, the pole axis can be moved to a position suitable to ensure that

the subsequent vector interpolation can be carried out. This is set via the units and

tens digits of this machine data.

The units digits can have the following values (active if start orientation is equal

to pole orientation):

The interpolation is carried out as an axis interpolation. The specified

orientation path (large circle) is followed only if the pole axis (coincidentally) has

the right position and the basic orientation is perpendicular to the 2nd rotary axis.

A block, that positions the pole axis such that large circle interpolation can

be carried out in the subsequent block, is inserted before the block where the

described situation occurs.

If the block preceding the block, in which the described situation occurs,

contains a geometry axis movement but no orientation movement, the required

positioning movement of the pole axis is additionally carried out in this previous

block.

If one of the two conditions is not fulfilled (block does not contain a geometry axis

movement or block contains an orientation movement), the pole axis movement is carried

out in a separate block (same behavior as under 1.)

The tens digits can have the following values (active if the start orientation differs

from the pole orientation, but lies within the tolerance circle defined by

TRAFO5_POLE_LIMIT_n):

00:

The interpolation is carried out as an axis interpolation. The specified

orientation path (large circle) is followed only if the pole axis (coincidentally) has

the right position and the basic orientation is perpendicular to the 2nd rotary axis.

10:

A block that positions the two rotary axes to the point where the programmed

large circle interpolation intersects with the tolerance circle defined by

TRAFO5_POLE_LIMIT_n is inserted before the block where the described situation

occurs. In the original block, large circle interpolation is applied as of this point.

20:

If the block preceding the block in which the described situation occurs

contains a geometry axis movement but no orientation movement, the necessary

positioning movements of the two rotary axes are additionally carried out in this

previous block. The residual movement in the original block is the same as that of

value 10 of this machine data.

If one of the two conditions is not fulfilled (block does not contain a geometry axis

movement or block contains an orientation movement), the pole axis movement is carried

out in a separate block (same behavior as under 10.)

The hundreds digit of this MD is used to set the behavior in case the orientation runs

through the pole taper or ends within the pole taper.

The hundreds digit can have the following values:

SINUMERIK machine and setting data

2.3 NC machine data

000:

A block with the orientation running within the pole taper is subdivided only

if the start orientation is equal to the pole orientation (with POLE_ORI_MODE = 1) or

is close to the pole orientation (with POLE_ORI_MODE = 10). If the pole orientation

occurs at an arbitrary point in the block, the whole change in orientation is

traversed by means of rotary axis interpolation. In general, this leads to a more or

less significant deviation from the programmed orientation path.

100:

If the programmed orientation path runs through the pole taper, the block is

subdivided in up to 3 parts, so that there is a deviation from the orientation path

only within the pole taper. Outside the pole taper, the orientation is interpolated

exactly on the programmed orientation path.

The pole handling behavior with active ORIANGLE (interpolation of orientation in

virtual axis angles) is set with the thousands digit of the MD.

0xxx:

With this setting, the normal pole behavior is active even if ORIANGLE is

active. If the transformation causes a switchover to axis interpolation due to a pole,

orientation is interpolated by means of the real rotary axes. This can result in

considerable deviations from the programmed orientation path. Any different settings

of the MD $MC_POLE_ORI_MODE are also effective. This means, for example, that by means

of the setting MD21108 $MC_POLE_ORI_MODE = 100, this behavior can be changed such that

deviations from the programmed orientation path only occur within the pole taper.

1xxx:

If ORIANGLE is active, there is never a switchover to the interpolation of

the orientation by means of real rotary axes. The orientation is always interpolated

with virtual axis angles (e.g. Euler angle or RPY angle). Different settings of the

MD21108 $MC_POLE_ORI_MODE do not become effective. For example, with MD21108

$MC_POLE_ORI_MODE = 1100 the division of the orientation movement, which was

activated by the value 100, does not become effective. Therefore, if MD21108

$MC_POLE_ORI_MODE = 1xxx, the units, tens and hundreds digits are ignored.

Using the ten thousands digit, it is possible to set whether for the generic 5/6 axis

transformation, alarm 14112 should be output, if the intermediate orientations do not

lie in the orientation range of the kinematics but final orientation of the block is

possible:

0xxxx:

The intermediate orientations are checked, as to whether these can be

reached. If an orientation characteristic is programmed which goes through the range

that cannot be reached, alarm 14112 (program orientation path not possible) is output.

1xxxx:

The intermediate orientations are checked as to whether these can be

reached. However, no alarm is output if the orientation runs through the range that

cannot be reached, instead, the orientation change is performed using the rotary axis

interpolation. This can result in significant deviations in orientation from the

programmed orientation characteristic.

The values of the units, tens, hundreds and thousands digits are added. If the

thousands digit = 1, the remaining decimals of the MD are not evaluated (with the

exception of the ten thousands digit).

Description:

This machine data is evaluated only with the generic 5-axis transformation.

If the block preparation shows that the path programmed in the direction programming

would lead to a violation of the software limit switches of the orientation axes, this

machine data determines how the motions of the rotary axes have to be modified.

The units digit of the MD is used to determine how alternative end positions of the

rotary axes are created if the software limit switches would be violated. The tens

digit is used to determine how the axes approach these end positions. The hundreds

digit is used to activate an automatic limitation of the axis that swivels through the

pole (non-pole axis).

Meaning of the units digit:

The path is not modified. Alarm 10720 (SW_LIMITSWITCH) is output if it is not

possible to travel along the shortest path.

If the initially determined orientation path would violate the limits of the

orientation axes, an attempt is made to modify the end points so that a motion becomes

possible.

The first attempt uses the second solution. (There are usually two solutions to the

conversion: orientation ==> angle of axis). If this solution would also violate the

axis limits, an attempt is made to find a permissible solution by modifying both

rotary axes by multiples of 360 degrees in both solutions.

The modifications of end positions described will only be performed if axis

interpolation of rotary axes is active.

Monitoring and possibly modifications of the rotary-axis positions are the same

as those when the machine data has the value 1.

However, modifications are also permissible if vector interpolation (large-circle

interpolation, taper circumference interpolation, etc.) is active. If, in such a

case, the rotary-axes positions would have to be modified, there is a switch to axis

interpolation. The originally programmed orientation path will then usually not be

followed.

Meaning of the tens digit:

0x:

The orientation axes travel simultaneously to their possible end positions.

There may be larger or smaller deviations from the original orientation path.

1x:

If possible, the orientation is first rotated in the pole direction. In the

pole position, the pole axis is then positioned so that the final orientation can be

approached by rotating the orientation from the pole position into the programmed

direction. The originally programmed orientation path is then followed.

The range of the non-pole axis is limited either in the positive or negative

travel range. The possible range is limited by the larger of the absolute positive and

negative values.

Examples:

1. MD36100 $MA_POS_LIMIT_MINUS[AX5] = -5.0 and MD36110 $MA_POS_LIMIT_PLUS[AX5] =

135.0, the possible range of axis AX5 is 0 ... 135.0

2. MD36100 $MA_POS_LIMIT_MINUS[AX5] = -100.0 and MD36110 $MA_POS_LIMIT_PLUS[AX5] =

10.0, the possible range of axis AX5 is -100.0 ... 0.0

3. MD36100 $MA_POS_LIMIT_MINUS[AX5] = 5.0 und MD36110 $MA_POS_LIMIT_PLUS[AX5] =

120.0, the possible range is 5.0 ... 120.0, there is no automatic limitation of the

travel range.

function by TOFFON.

1: $AA_TOFF handwheel override possible without activation of the $AA_TOFF function

by TOFFON.

Bit 10: Axis assignment of the TOFF components on plane change.

0: The axis components are exchanged cyclically on plane change from G17 to G18 or

G19. This means that all three axes of the rotated coordinate system point in the

positive axis directions of the initial coordinate system.

1: The coordinate system is rotated -90 degrees around the X axis on plane change from

G17 to G18, and 90 degrees around the Y axis on plane change from G17 to G18.

In both cases, the rotated Z axis points in the same direction as when bit 10 is not

set.

The other two axes are exchanged in comparison to the setting with bit 10 not set,

and one of the two axes points in the negative direction.

This setting should only be used if compatibility with older software versions is

required (SW 4.5 and older). This setting is not recommended for new developments.

7/2

Description:

This machine data determines the type of coupling for the fixed coupling configuration

defined with machine data COUPLE_AXIS_1[n].

Setpoint coupling activated.

With a setpoint coupling, the reference variable for the following spindle is

calculated from the position setpoint of the leading spindle, thus allowing the

setpoints for the FS and LS to be input simultaneously. This has a particularly

positive effect on the spindle synchronism during acceleration and deceleration

processes.

A setpoint coupling thus achieves better command behavior than an actual-value

coupling.

When a setpoint coupling is used, the following conditions must be fulfilled before

synchronous mode is activated:

• The LS must be assigned to the same NC channel as the FS

• The FS and LS must be in position control mode (SPCON)

• The FS and LS must have the same dynamic control response

Actual-value coupling activated.

With an actual-value coupling, the command variable for the following spindle is

calculated from the actual position value of the leading spindle. With this type of

coupling, the following drive must be significantly more dynamic than the leading

drive, but never vice versa.

The actual-value coupling can be used, for example, in the following cases:

• The LS must be assigned to a different NC channel than the FS.

• For leading spindles which are not suitable for position control.

• In cases where the dynamic control response of the leading spindle is considerably

slower than that of the following spindle. As soon as the actual-value coupling is

active, the NC/PLC interface signal DB31, ... DBX98.2 (Actual-value coupling) for

the FS is set to "1-signal".

Speed coupling activated.

Internally, the speed coupling is a setpoint coupling. Lower dynamic requirements are

placed on the FS and LS. A defined relation between the positions of the FS and LS

cannot be established.

A speed coupling is used in the following cases:

• LS and/or FS are not in position control.

• There are no measuring systems present.

The coupling type can be altered in the NC part program when the coupling is

deactivated by means of language instruction COUPDEF provided this option has not been

inhibited by the channel-specific MD21340 $MC_COUPLE_IS_WRITE_PROT_1. However, the

parameterized value of channel-specific MD21310 $MC_COUPLING_MODE_1 remains unchanged.

Block change in response to "Fine synchronization"

Block change in response to "Coarse synchronization"

Block change in response to IPOSTOP (i.e. after setpoint-based synchronization)

The block change response can be altered in the NC part program with language

instruction COUPDEF provided this option is not inhibited by the channel-specific

MD21340 $MC_COUPLE_IS_WRITE_PROT_1. However, the parameterized value of the channel-

The S functions of the master spindle are assigned to group 3 as default.

The four machine data for assigning an auxiliary function to an auxiliary function

group must always be given the same index [n].

Special cases:

If the value of an auxiliary function is less than 0, all auxiliary functions of this

type and extension are assigned to one group.

Example:

S2 = -1

=> group 9

(all S values of the 2nd spindle are assigned to group 9)

Note:

Only one auxiliary function from a group may be programmed in each block, otherwise

alarm 14760 is output.

resulting velocity is equivalent to the programmed path feed.

If all eight values are zero (default), the geo axis entered in MD20050

$MC_AXCONF_GEOAX_ASSIGN_TAB are active as the default setting for the FGROUP command

as previously.

Description:

If the path of the FGROUP axes is short in comparison to that of the non-FGROUP axes,

the latter must become very fast in order to follow the path. If the path is precisely

0, then they travel instead at the programmed feedrate. The machine data can be used

to soften this abrupt transition.

Value 0: This abrupt transition is not processed. Setting compatible with the

behavior before the software release 6

Value 1: From a threshold of the path relationship of MD22440 $MC_FGROUP_PATH_RATIO,

the paths of the non-FGROUP axes are increasingly taken into account. However, this is

only applicable in polynomial blocks with significantly changing path components.

Setting compatible with the behavior before software release NCK.P7_91

Value 2: As for 1, however, without the restrictions.

Value 3: As for 2, but with improved behavior if there are no geometry axes in the

FGROUP. Recommended setting for mold making applications and special machines.

Is only of significance for MD22430 $MC_FGROUP_PATH_MODE > 0 . A value of 0 has the

same effect as if all axes were in the FGROUP. For larger values, this approaches the

behavior of that of MDMD22430 $MC_FGROUP_PATH_MODE = 0.

Corresponds with:

Description:

The data specifies how the velocities of the geometry axes are limited for technology

groups by curvatures.

Value 0: The limitation results from the axial accelerations of the geometry axes

involved in the path.

Value 1: The limitation results from the geometric curvatures of the geometry axes

involved in the path.

Setting 0 leads to a higher path velocity, because traversing can then be faster in

the diagonal direction. With setting 1, the path velocity is equally limited at points

with diagonal and paraxial tangents. The course of the path velocity is then smoother.

This setting should therefore be selected for finishing.

The setting affects the limitations of the path velocity on account of the contour

accuracy function (G code CPRECON), the maximum axis acceleration (MD32300

$MA_MAX_AX_ACCEL) and the chord error caused by the interpolation cycle (MD10682 $MN

CONTOUR_SAMPLING_FACTOR).

With the current behavior (bit 0 = 0), the G group is the array index of a 64-byte

field (DBB 208 - DBB 271).

Maximally the 64th G group can be reached in this way.

With the new behavior (bit 0 = 1), the data storage in the PLC consists of max. 8 bytes

(DBB 208 - DBB 215).

With this procedure, the array index of this byte array is identical with the index of

the MD22510 $MC_GCODE_GROUPS_TO_PLC[Index] and MD22512

Description:

The T function is used to select a tool in the program. The setting in this machine

data determines whether the new tool is loaded immediately on execution of the T

function:

MD22550 $MC_TOOL_CHANGE_MODE = 0

The new tool is loaded directly with the programming of T or D. This setting is mainly

used on turning machines. If a D is not programmed in the block by T, then the tool

offset defined in MD20270 $MC_CUTTING_EDGE_DEFAULT is active.

In this case, the function "Manual tools" is not enabled.

MD22550 $MC_TOOL_CHANGE_MODE = 1

The new tool is prepared for loading on execution of the T function. This setting is

used mainly on milling machines with a tool magazine in order to bring the new tool

into the tool change position without interrupting the machining process. The M

function entered in MD22560 $MC_ TOOL_CHANGE_M_CODE is used to remove the old tool

from the spindle and load the new tool onto the spindle. According to DIN 66025, this

tool change has to be programmed with M function M06.

2.3 NC machine data

Description:

Behavior if faults/problems occur during programmed tool change.

Bit 0=0: Standard behavior: Stop at the faulty NC block

Bit 0=1: If a fault is detected in the block with the tool change preparation, the

alarm relevant to the preparation command T is delayed until the corresponding tool

change command (M06) has been interpreted in the program sequence. Until then, the

alarm triggered by the preparation command is not output. The operator can take

corrective actions in this block. When the program continues, the faulty NC block is

re-interpreted, and the preparation command is automatically executed again

internally.

The value = 1 is relevant only if the setting MD22550 $MC_TOOL_CHANGE_MODE = 1 is used.

Bit 1 Only relevant with active tool management.

Bit 1=0: Standard behavior: Only tools with data assigned to a magazine are detected

during tool change preparation.

Bit 1=1: Manual tools can be loaded.

A tool will also be loaded if its data is known in the NCK but has not been assigned

to a magazine. In this case, the tool data is automatically assigned to the programmed

toolholder.

The user is prompted to insert tools into or remove tools from the toolholder.

Bit 2 qualifies the offset programming

Bit 2=0: active D no. > 0 and active T no.=0 gives offset 0

Active D no. > 0 and active D no.=0 gives total offset 0

Bit 2=1: active D no. > 0 and active T no.=0 lead to an alarm message

Active D no. > 0 and active D no.=0 lead to an alarm message

Bits 3 and 4 are only relevant with active tool management.

Function:

Control of the behavior of the init. block generation on program start if an

unserviceable tool is on the spindle and this tool is to be activated.

See also: MD20112 $MC_START_MODE_MASK, MD20110 $MC_RESET_MODE_MASK

On RESET, this does not affect the behavior "Keep disabled tool on the spindle active".

Bit 3=0: Standard: If the tool on the spindle is unserviceable, generate a tool change

command requesting a replacement tool. An alarm will be generated if there is no such

replacement tool.

Bit 3=1: The status of the unserviceable spindle tool is ignored. (Exception: disabled

tools.) The tool becomes active. The subsequent part program should be formulated so

that no parts are machined with the unserviceable tool.

Bit 4=0: Standard: The system tries to activate the spindle tool or its replacement

tool

Bit 4=1: If the tool on the spindle is unserviceable, T0 is programmed in the start

init block.

The combination of bits 3 and 4 produces the following statements:

0 / 0: Behavior as before, automatic change on NC start if an unserviceable tool is in

the spindle

1 / 0: Is not always automatically changed

0 / 1: A T0 is automatically generated if an unserviceable tool is in the spindle at

NC start

1 / 1: No statement

Bit 5: Reserved

Bit 6=0: Standard: If T0 or D0, only T0 or D0 is exactly programmed.

This means that MD20270 $MC_CUTTING_EDGE_DEFAULT and MD20272 $MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT

define, with the programming of T0 the value of D, DL.

For example, MD20270 $MC_CUTTING_EDGE_DEFAULT=1

MD20272 $MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT=2

MD22550 $MC_TOOL_CHANGE_MODE=0 (tool change with T programming)

N10 T0; T no. 0 has active number D1 and DL=2 which results in offset zero. If bit 2

generates an alarm, if at least one of the machine data

MD20270 $MC_CUTTING_EDGE_DEFAULT

MD20272 $MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT

is not equal to zero (T0 D0 DL=0 is the correct programming).

or MD20272 $MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT is not equal to zero (D0 DL=0 is the correct

programming).

Bit 6=1: controls the NCK response when programming (x, y, z all greater than zero),

if at least one of

MD20270 $MC_CUTTING_EDGE_DEFAULT

MD20272 $MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT

is not equal to zero.

a) Tx Dy -> T0

T0 is automatically programmed in NCK D0 or D0 DL=0; i.e. values not equal to zero of

MD20270 $MC_CUTTING_EDGE_DEFAULT, MD20272 $MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT are treated as value

equal to zero.

b) Tx Dy -> T0 Dy, or T0 DL =z, or T0 Dy DL=z, or T0 D0 DL=z explicitly programmed

values of D, DL are not influenced.

c) Dy DL=z -> D0

With D0, DL=0 is automatically programmed in the NCK; i.e. values in MD20272

$MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT unequal to zero are treated as values equal to zero.

d) Dy DL=z -> D0 DL=z

Explicitly programmed values of DL are not influenced.

If bit 2 is also set:

Only T0 / D0 have to be programmed for tool/offset deselection, and this does not

generate an alarm.

The statements relating to MD20272 $MC_SUMCORR_DEFAULT or DL are only valid if the

total offset function is active

(see MD18080 $MN_MM_TOOL_MANAGEMENT_MASK, bit 8).

Bit 7=0: When Tx is programmed, a check is made to see whether a tool with T number x

is known in the TO unit of the channel. If not, the program is stopped in this block

with alarm 17190.

Bit 7=1: only if the tool basic functionality is active

(MD20310 $MC_TOOL_MANAGEMENT_MASK, bit 0,1=0)

and (MD18102 $MN_MM_TYPE_OF_CUTTING_EDGE=0):

When Tx is programmed, an unknown Tx is initially ignored, and the alarm relating to

the preparation command (Tx) is also ignored until the D selection is interpreted in

the program sequence. Only then is alarm 17191, which has been triggered by the

preparation command, output. This means that the operator can take corrective actions

with the D selection in this block. When the program is continued, the incorrect NC

block is re-interpreted, and the preparation command is automatically executed again

internally.

(This is of interest for Cutting-Edge-Default=0 or =-2 and D0 programming, otherwise

the D of Cutting-Edge-Default is deselected on tool change.).)

This variant is justified for programming "Tool number=Location" (turret as

toolholder) without tool management. The turret can now be positioned on a location

for which a tool has not (yet) been defined.

This bit has no meaning if bit 0=1 is set.

Bit 9=1: A tool with the status "to unload" ($TC_TP8[T_No] bit10=1) is not selected in

Activating diagnostics

An internal ring buffer records important events.

After a trigger event, the 'Cancel alarm' key is set as default,

the ring buffer is briefly frozen, read, and converted into an ASCII file

in the part program directory. The file name for the 1st channel

is ncsctr01.mpf and for the 7th channel it is ncsctr07.mpf.

The data in the ring buffer is referred to as dynamic data in the following.

In addition to the trigger event, other up-to-date data is read from the

NCK and transferred to the ASCII file. These recordings do

NOT have a history and are referred to as static data in the following.

Bit no.

Significance when bit is set

------------------------------------------------------------------

0 (LSB) Recording of dynamic data (see TRACE_VARIABLE_NAME)

Recording of block control static data

Recording of alarm data static data

Recording of process data static data

Recording of command sequence static data

Recording of tool management static data

Recording of the NCK version file. Static data

Recording of the states of the current block

Various states of the axes and the SPARPI. Static data

Recording of various states of the channel. Static data

Error states in the NCK memory management are scanned during trace generation.

An error renames the trace file. Static data

Possible names and their meanings:

NCFIER.MPF

Error in the file system

NCSLER.MPF

Error during string creation

NCFIER.MPF

Error on New/Delete

All block changes in the interpreter are recorded. Dynamic data.

Axial VDI signals are recorded. Dynamic data.

Only in conjunction with MD18794 $MN_MM_TRACE_VDI_SIGNAL

OEM traces are activated. Dynamic data.

Synchronized actions are recorded. Dynamic data.

NOTICE: Filled in applications with intensive use of

these trace points, other events are ignored!

That is why this bit should remain at 0 in these cases.
