Sequence of operations

MMC103

Operation The sequence of operations is described below using theworkpiece illustrated on the opposite page (3-2) as arepresentative example.

The workpiece - is machined outside and inside,- is given the outside contour of the geometry elements cylinder / taper / circle- and the inside contour of a contour definition- and is given a metric thread on the outside.

You needto know

- the dimensions of the blank- the material to be machined- the finished part contour- the workholder type

Structure of thisguide

Each step of the operation is described on a differentpage so that you can refer to themmore quickly.

MMC103

ContinuePress the softkey "Continue".

No 2ndside

Because machining is to takeplace from one side only, thissoftkey is operated.

In this case, the softkey "Continue" has the same meaningas "No 2nd side" because this is highlighted with a bluebackground as the default.

NoAs there is no cut-off part, thisis acknowledged with "No".

Five workholders now appear on the screen:Outside jaws (2) Inside jaws Collet Face driver

Four types of tailstock appear on the screen.4 tailstock types.

ContinueBecause no tailstock isrequired, the softkey"Continue" is pressed.

The screen shows you the machining limits for:outside roughing, outside finishing, inside drilling and insidefinishing.

ContinuePress the softkey "Continue".

You are now in the menu in which the machining operationscan be established for the contour that you have justdefined.This is either done automatically by AUTOTURN or inaccordance with the entries that you make under "Singlemachining operations" and "Macros". We shall use theautomatic option here!

AutomaticPress the softkey"Automatic".




MMC103

The screen offers you default values for:speed limits, clamping pressures, and operationalinfluences (see Operator's Guide).

OKPress the softkey "OK" toaccept the values.

The automatic run now commences.Please wait a little until all program parts have beencreated!

When all machining operations for the defined contour havebeen completed, the following text is displayed:"... END OF AUTOMATIC ... (0) Clamping: 1"

If an error message appears in Automatic mode, you shouldrefer to the Operator's Guide Part 1: Programming whereyou will find information on causes of error and how torectify them in Section 7.

The (theoretically) equipped toolholder includes all toolsneeded for this programming example!

Before testing a part program generated by the GraphicProgramming System on the machine, it is crucial tocheck that the theoretical toolholder feedingimplemented in AutoTurn matches the practical toolmemory allocation!

If the wrong tools are used, human injury and damageto machinery and equipment can result!

MMC103

The Graphic Programming System AutoTurn as from SW 4has been extended to include the following functions:

Extended blankshapes

With the function "Free definition" you can define anyblank using all the options available for creation of afinished part geometry: Cylinder / Taper / Circle / Contour / Compensation

If your blank has an equidistant allowancearound the finished part contouryou can define the blank geometry with the function"Allowance finished part “ instead of using the freedefinition function.

Face endmachining

In addition to the finished part geometry contoursoutside / insideavailable until now,three additional contour planes are suggested: Face end right Face end left PeripheralYou can program holes, thread holes, slots and freecontours (pockets, islands, open contours) on each of thesethree new contour planes.

Constructiongeometries

Using construction geometries the Graphic ProgrammingSystem AutoTurn calculates unknown contour points fromconstruction lines and circles.You can use this function, for example, to produce a freepocket contour initially using construction geometries andthen put together the desired contour that you actually wishto machine from selected geometry elements.

Counterspindle The counterspindle functionality allows you toeffectively machine turned parts on a machine with mainspindle and counterspindle• either asynchronously with one toolholder• or synchronously with two toolholders.

AutoTurn PC /AutoTurn Plus PC

Functionality as with AutoTurn or AutoTurn Plus.The software runs on a conventional PC underWindows 95.

Advantage:Preparing AutoTurn programsfor job planning.

Coupling toCAD systems

The CAD coupling is used to process complex parts, whichwere constructed by the customer by means of CADsystems, by applying AutoTurn.CAD information must be saved in the form of DXF files.

AutoTurn reads in these DXF files and filtersthe customer-specific information such as dimensionsand shading etc. from this file.This saves programming for unmachined part and finishedproduct processing. The data are stored in the Clipboard.
