(1) Operations for program creation
To display a menu for program creation, press the [ 1 ] soft key
(machining program creation) on the main menu.
(2) Entering the program number and name
Enter program number 20 and name PRG–C.
20 INPUT (Program number)
PRG–C (Program name)
[FC25] (Workpiece material)
[BAR] (Workpiece figure)
105 INPUT (Maximum outside dimension)
INPUT (Minimum inside diameter)
123 INPUT (Length)
2000 INPUT (Maximum spindle speed)
[ON] (Coolant)
0.5 INPUT (Finishing allowance X–coordinate)
0.2 INPUT (Finishing allowance Z–coordinate)
3 INPUT (End surface chamfering allowance)
NOTE
1 It is unnecessary to specify the initial data for “product
length” for one–path lathes
2 Once the initial data has been specified, it is set
automatically in subsequent programming operations. In
subsequent programming, therefore, check that the
automatically–set initial data is appropriate, then press the
↓ key several times until a new process is created.
