B Terms

Geometry Description of a \rightarrow workpiece in the \rightarrow workpiece coordinate system.

Geometry axis Geometry axes are used to describe a 2- or 3-dimensional range in the workpiece coordinate system.

Velocity control In order to achieve an acceptable traverse rate on very short traverse movements, predictive evaluation over several blocks ( Look Ahead) can be set.

Linear interpolation The tool travels along a straight line to the destination point while machining the workpiece.

Global main program/subprogram Each global main program/subprogram may appear only once under its name in the directory. It is not possible to use the same program name in different directories with different contents as a global program.

H

Main program Part program identified by a number or name, in which other main programs, subprograms or \rightarrow cycles may be called.

Auxiliary functions Auxiliary functions can be used to transfer \rightarrow parameters to the \rightarrow PLC in \rightarrow part programs, where they trigger reactions, which are defined by the machine manufacturer.

I

Interpolator Logical unit of the \rightarrow NCK, which determines intermediate values for the movements to be traversed on the individual axes, on the basis of destination positions specified in the part program.

J

Jog Control operating mode (setup operation): In JOG mode, it is possible to set up the machine. Individual axes and spindles can be traversed in JOG mode by means of the direction keys. Other functions available in JOG mode are \rightarrow reference point approach, \rightarrow repositioning and \rightarrow preset (setting an actual value).

K

Channel A channel can execute a \rightarrow part program independently of the other channels. A channel exclusively controls the axes and spindles assigned to it. Part programs runs of various channels can be

coordinated by → synchronization.

Channel structure The channel structure makes it possible to process the → programs of individual channels simultaneously and asynchronously.

Contour Outline of the → workpiece

Contour monitoring The following error is monitored within a definable tolerance band as a measure of contour accuracy. Overloading of the drive, for example, may result in an unacceptably large following error. In such cases, an alarm is output and the axes are stopped.

Coordinate system See → Machine coordinate system → Workpiece coordinate system

Offset memory Data range in the control, in which the tool offset data are stored.

Kᵥ Servo gain factor, a control variable in a control loop.

L

Linear axis The linear axis is an axis, which, in contrast to a rotary axis, describes a straight line.

M

Machine Operating area of the control.

Machine axes Physically existent axes on the machine tool.

Machine coordinate system A coordinate system, which is related to the axes of the machine tool.

Machine zero A fixed point on the machine tool, which can be referenced by all (derived) measuring systems.

Machine control panel An operator panel on a machine tool with operating elements such as keys, rotary switches, etc., and simple indicators such as LEDs. It is used to directly influence the machine tool via the PLC.

Dimensions specification, metric and inches Position and pitch values can be programmed in inches in the machining program. The control is set to a basic system regardless of the programmable dimensional specification (G70/G71).

MDA Control operating mode: Manual Data Automatic. In the MDA mode, individual program blocks or block sequences with no reference to a main program or subprogram can be input and executed immediately afterwards through actuation of the NC start key.

Metric measurement system Standardized system of units: for lengths in millimeters (mm), meters (m), etc.

N

NC Numerical Control: Numerical control (NC) includes all components of machine tool control: → NCK, → PLC, → HMI COM. Note: CNC (computerized numerical control) would be more appropriate for the SINUMERIK 840D or FM-NC controls: computerized numerical control.

NCK Numerical Control Kernel: Component of the NC control, which executes → part programs and essentially coordinates the movements on the machine tool.

A-454

A 01/2008 Appendix B Terms A

Zero/work offset Specification of a new reference point for a coordinate system through reference to an existing origin and a \rightarrow frame.

  1. Settable SINUMERIK 840D: A configurable number of settable work offsets are available for each CNC axis. The offsets - which are selected by means of G functions - take effect alternately.
  2. External In addition to all the offsets which define the position of the workpiece zero, an external work offset can be overlaid by means of the – handwheel (DRF offset) or – from the PLC.

O

OEM The scope for implementing individual solutions (OEM applications) for the SINUMERIK 840D has been provided for machine manufacturers, who wish to create their own operator interface or integrate process-oriented functions in the control.

Oriented spindle stop Stops the workpiece spindle with a specified orientation angle, e.g., to perform an additional machining operation at a specific position.

Oriented tool retraction RETTOOL: If machining is interrupted (e.g., when a tool breaks), a program command can be used to retract the tool in a user-specified orientation by a defined distance.

Override Manual or programmable control feature, which enables the user to override programmed feedrates or speeds in order to adapt them to a specific workpiece or material.

P

Parameters

  1. The S7-300 uses two types of parameters: – Parameters of a STEP 7 instruction A parameter of a STEP 7 instruction is the address of the operand to be edited or a constant. – Parameter of a \rightarrow parameter block A parameter of a parameter block determines the behavior of a module.

2. 840D: – Operating area of the control. – Arithmetic parameter for which the programmer of the part program can assign or request values as required in the program.

PG Programming device

PLC Programmable Logic Control: \rightarrow Programmable logic controller. Component of the \rightarrow NC control: Programmable controller for processing the control logic of the machine tool.

PLC programming The PLC is programmed with STEP 7 software. STEP 7 programming software is based on the standard WINDOWS operating system and incorporates the functionality of STEP 5 programming with innovative expansions and developments.

PLC program memory SINUMERIK 840D: The PLC user program, the user data and the basic PLC program are stored together in the PLC user memory. The PLC user memory can be expanded up to 96 KB with memory expansions.

Polar coordinates A coordinate system, which defines the position of a point on a plane in terms of its distance from the origin and the angle formed by the radius vector with a defined axis.

Polynomial interpolation Polynomial interpolation provides a means of generating a very wide range of curves, including straight-line, parabolic and exponential functions (SINUMERIK 840D).

Positioning axis Axis that performs an auxiliary movement on a machine tool (e.g., tool magazine, pallet transport). Positioning axes are axes that do not interpolate with path axes.

Power On Control is switched off and then switched on again.

Preset The control zero point can be redefined in the machine coordinate system by means of the Preset function. Preset does not cause the axes to move; instead, a new position value is entered for the current axis positions.

Program 1. Operating area of the control. 2. Sequence of instructions to the control.

Programmable working area limitation Limitation of the motion space of the tool to a space defined by programmed limitations.

Programmable frames

Programmable → frames can be used to dynamically define new coordinate system starting points while the part program is running. A distinction is made between absolute definition using a new frame and additive definition with reference to an existing starting point.

CNC programming language

The CNC programming language is based on DIN 66025 with high-level language expansions. The → CNC high-level language and programming support the definition of macros (sequenced statements), for example.

R

Reference point

Point on the machine tool used to reference the measuring system of the → machine axes.

Reference point approach

If the utilized distance measuring system is not an absolute value encoder then it is necessary to perform a reference point approach to ensure that the actual values returned by the measuring system match the machine coordinate values.

REPOS

  1. Reapproach contour, triggered by operator
    REPOS allows the tool to be returned to the interrupt position by means of the direction keys.
  2. Programmed contour reapproach
    A selection of approach strategies are available in the form of program commands: Approach point of interruption, approach start of block, approach end of block, approach a point on the path between start of block and interruption.

Blank

Workpiece as it is before the part is machined.

Rotation

Component of a → frame, which defines a rotation of the coordinate system through a specific angle.

R parameters

Arithmetic parameters can be set or requested by the programmer of the → part program for any purpose in that program.

Rotary axis

Rotary axes apply a workpiece or tool rotation to a defined angular position.

Rotary axis, turning continuously

Depending on the application, the travel range of a rotary axis can be limited to less than 360 degrees or the axis can be continuously turned in both directions. Continuously turning rotary axes are used, for example, for eccentric machining, grinding and winding.

S

Block

A section of a → part program terminated with a line feed. A

A-457

distinction is made between → main blocks and → subblocks.

Block search The block search function allows any point in the part program to be selected, at which machining must start or be continued. The function is provided for the purpose of testing part programs or continuing machining after a program abort.

Keywords Words with a specific notation, which have a defined meaning in the programming language for → part programs.

Key-operated switch

  1. S7-300: The keylock switch is the mode selector switch on the CPU. The keylock switch is operated by a removable key.
  2. 840D: The key-operated switch on the → machine control panel has 4 settings, to which functions are assigned by the operating system of the control. Further, the key-operated switch has three differently colored keys, which can be removed in the specified positions.

Tool nose radius compensation Contour programming assumes that the tool is pointed. Since this is not actually the case in practice, the curvature radius of the tool used must be communicated to the control, which then takes it into account. The curvature center is maintained equidistantly around the contour, offset by the curvature radius.

Helical interpolation The helical interpolation function is ideal for machining internal and external threads using form milling cutters and for milling lubrication grooves. The helix comprises two movements:

  1. Circular movement in one plane
  2. Linear movement perpendicular to this plane

Increment Travel path length specification based on number of increments. The number of increments can be stored as a → setting data or selected with keys labeled with 10, 100, 1000, 10,000.

Setting data Data, which communicates the properties of the machine tool to the NC control, as defined by the system software.

Safety Functions The control incorporates monitors, which are active at all times and, which are designed to detect malfunctions in the → CNC, the programmable controller (→ PLC) and the machine at an early stage, in order to minimize the risk of damage to the tool, workpiece or machine. In the event of a fault, the machining operation is interrupted and the drives stopped. The cause of the malfunction is logged and output as an alarm. At the same time, the PLC is notified that a CNC alarm has been triggered.

Scaling Component of a → frame, which causes axis-specific alterations in the scale.

Softkey A key, whose name appears on an area of the screen. The choice of softkeys displayed is dynamically adapted to the operating situation. The freely assignable function keys (softkeys) are assigned defined functions in the software.

Software limit switch Software limit switches define the limits of the travel range of an axis and prevent the slide contacting the hardware limit switches. Two pairs of values can be assigned per axis and activated separately via the → PLC.

Mirroring Mirroring reverses the signs of the coordinate values of a contour, with respect to an axis. It is possible to mirror with respect to more than one axis at a time.

Spindles The spindle functionality is a two-level construct:

  1. Spindles: Digital speed or position controlled spindle drives (SINUMERIK 840D)
  2. Auxiliary spindles: speed-controlled spindle drives, "auxiliary spindle" function package e.g. for driven tools.

Leadscrew error compensation Compensation for the mechanical inaccuracies of a leadscrew participating in the feed. The control uses stored deviation values for the compensation.

Spline interpolation Using the spline interpolation function, the control is able to generate a smooth curve from just a small number of specified interpolation points along a setpoint contour.

Languages The user guidance display texts and the system messages are available in five system languages (diskette): German, English, French, Italian, and Spanish. The user can select two of the listed languages at a time in the control.

Standard cycles Standard cycles are provided for machining operations, which are frequently repeated:

  • Cycles for drilling/milling applications
  • for turning technology

The available cycles are listed in the "Cycle support" menu in the "Program" operating area. Once the desired machining cycle has been selected, the parameters required for assigning values are displayed in plain text.

Synchronized axes Synchronized axes take the same time to traverse their path as the geometry axes take for their path.

Synchronized Actions

  1. Auxiliary function output While a workpiece is being machined, technological functions (auxiliary functions) can be output from the CNC program to the PLC. These auxiliary functions are used for example to control additional equipment for the machine tool, such as quills, grabbers, clamping chucks etc.
  2. High-speed auxiliary function output For time-critical switching functions, the acknowledgement times for the → auxiliary functions can be minimized and unnecessary stops in the machining process can be avoided.

Synchronization Instructions in → part programs for coordination of the operations in different → channels at specific machining points.

System variables A variable, which exists, although it has not been programmed by the → part program programmer. It is defined by a data type and the variable name preceded by the character $. See also → User-defined variable.

T

Teach In Teach-in is a means of creating or correcting part programs. The individual program blocks can be input via the keyboard and executed immediately. Positions approached via the direction keys or handwheel can also be stored. Additional information such as G functions, feedrates or M functions can be entered in the same block.

Part program A sequence of instructions to the NC control which combine to produce a specific → workpiece. Likewise, performing a certain machining operation on a specific → blank.

Part program management The part program management function can be organized according to → workpieces. The size of the user memory determines the number of programs and the amount of data that can be managed. Each file (programs and data) can be given a name consisting of a maximum of 24 alphanumeric characters.

Memory reset The following → CPU memories are erased by a general reset operation:

  • Working memory
  • Read/write area of the → load memory
  • System memory
  • Backup memory

V

Variable definition A variable definition includes the specification of a data type and a variable name. The variable names can be used to access the value of the variables.

Traversing range The maximum permissible travel range for linear axes is ± 9 decades. The absolute value depends on the selected input and position control resolution and the unit of measurement (inch or metric).

Feed override The current feedrate setting entered via the control panel or by the PLC is overlaid on the programmed feedrate (0-200 %). The feedrate can also be corrected by a programmable percentage factor (1-200 %) in the machining program.
