- 539 -
- Manual operation in simultaneous automatic and manual operation
Automatic operation during simultaneous automatic and manual
operation is the same as normal automatic operation. So, manual
operation in simultaneous automatic and manual operation is explained
here.
1) States allowing interrupt (relative to automatic operation)
The table below indicates the states that allow manual interrupt.
Cutting axis interrupt type Setup interrupt type
In positioning mode Impossible Possible
In cutting mode Possible Possible
In threading mode Possible Possible
As can be seen from the table above, the setup interrupt type is not
affected by automatic operation. The cutting axis interrupt type is
allowed in a mode other than the positioning mode.
2) Interrupt type and movement
The table below indicates the relationships between the interrupt
types, travel distance, feedrate, and time constant.
Cutting interrupt type Setup interrupt type
Travel distance Same as for normal
manual operation
Same as for normal
manual operation
Feedrate (*1) Same as for normal
manual operation
Time constant Time constant selected for
automatic operation
Same as for normal
manual operation
*1 When the cutting axis type is used, the feedrate along an axis is a
feedrate for manual interrupt superimposed on a feedrate for
automatic operation. If the resulting feedrate along an axis
exceeds the maximum cutting feedrate, the feedrate is clamped to
the maximum cutting feedrate for the axis.
3) Interrupt types and signals
The table below indicates the relationships between the interrupt
types and signals.
Cutting axis interrupt type Setup interrupt type
Absolute on/off Not affected.
(The signal is always off.)
Affected.
Interlock Affected. Disabled when the signal is off.
Machine lock Affected. Disabled when the signal is off.
Mirror image Not affected. Even when the signal is on, a command
for movement in the positive direction moves the
machine in the positive direction.
4) Interrupt types and indication
The table below indicates the relationships between the interrupt
types and coordinates.
