This machine and template file have been set up to support the following fixed cycles: G80 - Fixed Cycle Cancel G81 - Drill Cycle G82 - Spot Drill Cycle G84 - Tapping Cycle G85 - Boring Cycle - Peck Drilling (See note 3) 2. Speeds in the Job Plan should be specified in revolutions per minute (RPM). Feeds should be in inches per minute (IPM). In order to produce code which will turn the spindle in a reverse direction, type the spindle speed in Job Plan as a minus number. 3. Peck drilling is output as exploded, individual Z moves. It is used with Peck Drill operations and uses Peck Increment from the Operation tab. 4. SmartCAM will output all the necessary moves to turn cutter diameter compensation on and off correctly (G40/G41/G42) but certain rules must be followed in the Shape Module. Any Profile in Shape with an Offset of None needs no Lead_In or Lead_Out moves. All Profiles in Shape with either Offset Right or Left require Lead_In and Lead_Out Lines and may also have Lead_in and Lead_Out Arcs as well. The following procedure is recommended highly: If you wish to use Lead_In and Lead_Out Lines only, it is best to use an Angle of 90 degrees and a Length greater than the tool radius. If you wish to use Lead_In and Lead_Out Arcs, it is best to use a Radius equal to the same amount and an Angle of 45 degrees, then Lead_In and Lead_Out Lines to those Arcs at an Angle of 90 degrees and a length equal to the same amount. Any time Lead_In and Lead_Out Arcs are used, Lead_In and Lead_Out Lines are absolutely necessary. 5. SmartCAM will automatically output the filename as the program number at the beginning of the program. 6. When using Tape_To_Shape, all geometry is interpreted as center of tool. After the translation, it is necessary to change the offsets of the applicable geometry in Shape so that the shape file is a true representation of the translated information. This is done by select- ing Update, Feature_Change, Offset, then choosing the desired geometry on the screen. 7. In order for the tool to retract properly for a tool change, a point must be assigned as the first element in the shape. This point should be assigned the first tool to be used in the shape, with Prof_Top set to No and Clear_Z set to No. Set the Z_Level for the point to the desired Z retract position for tool change. @DECLARE //#OUTSEC @ @START % #RESET(#MOV) #ONBLK(MSG,#TLCMT) #EVAL(#U8=#TOOL) #MOVT#TOOLM6 (MSG,) <#FXD><#MOV>#EXLN <#SPNDL> #EVAL(#U3=1) @ @TOOLCHG ZHOME=#ZHOME #EVAL(#U2=0) #IF(#V5=1) <#DCOMP #EVAL(#V5=0)> #IF(#V9=1) <#FXDR#ZHOME> #ELSE<#MOVZ#ZHOME> (MSG,#TLCMT) #MOVT#TOOLM6 (MSG,) <#FXD><#MOV>#EXLN #IF(#NTOOL<>#U8)#SPNDL #EVAL(#V0=0) #EVAL(#V9=0) @ @END ZHOME=#ZHOME #IF(#V9=1)<#FXDZ#ZHOME>#ELSE<<#DCOMP>Z#ZHOME> #MOVM30 #OFFBLK @ @STPROF <#MOV> #EVAL(#V0=1) #EVAL(#V9=0) @ @LINE #IF(#DCOMP>0) <#EVAL(#V5=1) <#DCOMP><#MOV>> #IF(#DCOMP=0,AND#V5=0) <<#MOV>> #IF(#DCOMP=0,AND#V5=1) <<#MOV> <#DCOMP>> #IF(#DCOMP>0)<#EVAL(#V5=1)> #IF(#DCOMP=0)<#EVAL(#V5=0)> @ @ARC <#MOV> #IF(#DCOMP>0)<#EVAL(#V5=1)> #IF(#DCOMP=0)<#EVAL(#V5=0)> @ @ZCLRMV #RESET(#V1,#V4) #IF(#V0=4)<#EXIT> #IF(#V9=1)<#FXDR#ZPOS> #ELSE<<#MOVZ#ZPOS>> #EVAL(#V9=0) @ @ZCHKMV <#MOV> @ @ZDPTHMV <#MOV> @ @OP_DRL #EVAL(#V9=1) #EVAL(#V1=#ZCHK-.1) #EVAL(#V4=#ZDPTH+.1) <#CYCLE> @@CYCLE 0,G81 @ // spot drill, center drill, counter bore, spot face, // and counter sink hole ops (w/dwell) @OP_SPDRL #CALL(OP_CSINK) @OP_CDRL #CALL(OP_CSINK) @OP_CBORE #CALL(OP_CSINK) @OP_SPFACE #CALL(OP_CSINK) @OP_CSINK #EVAL(#V9=1) #EVAL(#V1=#ZCHK-.1) #EVAL(#V4=#ZDPTH+.1) <#CYCLE> @@CYCLE 0,G82 @ @OP_TAP #EVAL(#V9=1) #EVAL(#V1=#ZCHK-.1) #EVAL(#V4=#ZDPTH+.1) <#CYCLE> @@CYCLE 0,G84 @ @OP_BORE #EVAL(#V9=1) #EVAL(#V1=#ZCHK-.1) #EVAL(#V4=#ZDPTH+.1) <#CYCLE> @@CYCLE 0,G85 @ // Peck drill is accomplished with a series of Z moves @OP_PDRL #EVAL(#V9=0) #EVAL(#U9=1) <#MOV> #EVAL(#V1=#ZCHK-.1) <#IF(#V1=#ZPOS)<#UPDATE(#ZCHK)>Z#ZCHK> #EVAL(#V4=#ZDPTH+.1) #EVAL(#V7=#V4+#V1) #EVAL(#V2=ABS(#V4)/#PECK) #IF(#V2<>INT(#V2))<#EVAL(#V2=INT(#V2)+1)> #REPEAT(#V2)<#CALL(PECK)> @ @PECK #EVAL(#V1=#V1-#PECK) #EVAL(#V3=#V1+.03) #IF(#V1>#V7) #IF(#U1=0) #IF(#U1=1)Z#V3> #IF(#V1<=#V7) #IF(#V1=#ZPOS,OR#U3=1)#ELSE> @
