Introduction to Basic TL Series Lathe Operation

Welcome to Productivity, Inc., the Haas CNC Machine Tool Distributor for your local area. As part of your companys Haas CNC purchase, standard lifetime training is included as long as your company owns the machine. What we plan on covering in this one-day class is the operation and programming of the unique features of the Haas TL- Series Tool Room Lathes. These lathes are unique in their own way as they are designed for manual, semi-manual, and full CNC G&M code operation. Even though the TL series can be run from a G&M code program, Haas has equipped these unique machines with a unique control. The Haas IPS (Intuitive Programming System) allows for quick and easy setup and programming of standard tool room style parts. Since the TL series is so unique, Productivity, Inc. had designed a specific class just for the TL series to best suit its unique features. If you or your company would like to learn more about G&M code programming to take even more advantage of the Haas control equipped on the TL series of lathes, we would suggest the next step - Lathe Programming after completing this course.

The Cartesian Coordinate System

The first diagram we are concerned with is called a NUMBER LINE. This number line has a reference point zero that is called ABSOLUTE ZERO and may be placed at any point along the line.
Fig-1 - 1 Horizontal number line Z Axis
The number line also has numbered increments on either side of absolute zero. Moving away from zero to the right are positive increments. Moving away from zero to the left are negative increments. The "+", or positive increments, are understood, therefore no sign is needed. We use positive and negative along with the increment's value to indicate its relationship to zero on the line. In the case of the previous line, if we choose to move to the third increment on the minus (-) side of zero, we would call for -3. If we choose the second increment in the plus range, we would call for 2. Our concern is with distance and direction from zero. Remember that zero may be placed at any point along the line, and that once placed, one side of zero has negative increments and the other side has positive increments.
Fig.1-2 Vertical Number Line X Axis
Page 4
The next illustration (Fig. 1-3) shows the two directions of travel on a TL Series Lathe. To carry the number line idea a little further, imagine such a line placed along each axis of the machine.
Figure 1-3
The first number line is easy to conceive as belonging to the left-to-right, or Z, axis of the machine. If we place a similar number line along the front-to-back, or X, axis, the increments toward the operator are the positive increments, and the increments on the other side of zero away from the operator are the negative increments. The zero position may be placed at any point along each of the two number lines, and in fact will probably be different for each setup of the machine. It is noteworthy to mention that the X-axis is set with the machine zero position on the center line of the spindle, while the Z axis zero is set at the finished right of the part being machined. This will place the entire X axis cutting in a positive range of travel, whereas the Z axis cutting will be in the negative range of travel. The diagram shows a front view of the grid as it would appear on the lathe. This view shows the X and Z axes as the operator faces the lathe. Note that at the intersection of the two lines, a common zero point is established. The four areas to the sides and above and below the lines are called QUADRANTS and make up the basis for what is known as rectangular coordinate programming.
Page 5
Fig. 1-4: Operators working grid.

Whenever we set a zero somewhere on the X axis and somewhere on the Z axis, we have automatically caused an intersection of the two lines. This intersection where the two zeros come together will automatically have the four quadrants to its sides, above, and below it. How much of a quadrant we will be able to access is determined by where we placed the zeros on the travel axes of the lathe.
Page 6
Machine Home Position

The principal of machine home may be seen when doing a manual reference return of all machine axes. When a zero return (ZERO RET) is performed at machine start up, all axes are moved to the furthest positive direction until the limit switch is reached. When this condition is satisfied, the only way to move any of the two axes is in the negative direction. This is because a new zero was set for each of the axes automatically when the machine was brought Home. Machine home is placed at the edge of each axes travel. Sometimes this point is referred to as Machine Zero as pointed out below:
Note the difference in the x coordinate system on a turret lathe and a table lathe. Positive X is in a direction that points toward the operator on the table lathe. This is due to the fact that the tool is on the opposite side of the part compared to a turret lathe.

The Haas CNC Control

Powering On the Machine
To power up a Haas machine, regardless of where the machine turret was when it was turned off, press POWER ON. The machine must first find its fixed machine zero reference point before any operations can occur. After it's powered on, pressing POWER UP/RESTART will send the machine to its machine zero reference location. The machine doors must be cycled and closed to return to machine zero. Also the machine needs to see the Emergency Stop cycled. Haas provides directions on the screen on what needs to be done to start the machine up in the morning.
When powering on the machine, if there is a message in the MESGS display, it will be the first display seen on your control screen.
Will move all axis to machine zero and then indexes the turret to tool #! Machine will move up in X first to machine zero and then the Z move to machine zero.
If the correct program has been selected and the part program is proven to be good and it's ready to run, press cycle start.
General Machine Keys

Power On - Turns CNC machine on. Power Off - Turns CNC machine tool off. Emergency Stop - Stops all axis motion, stops spindle, tool changer and turns off coolant pump. Jog Handle Jogs axis selected, also may be used to scroll through programs, menu items while editing and also altering feeds and speeds. Cycle Start Starts program in run mode or graphics mode. Feed Hold Stops all axis motion. Spindle will continue to turn. Reset Stops machine, will rewind program. Power Up/Restart Axis will return to machine zero and tool change will occur per Setting 81 Recover If a tool change is stopped in middle of a cycle an alarm will come up. Push the Recover button and follow the instructions to bring the tool change cycle to the beginning.

Control Display
The new 16 software has a larger display and more panes than older versions. Above is the basic display layout. What is displayed depends on which display keys have been used. The only pane active is the one with the white background. Only when a pane is active may changes be made to data. Control functions in Haas machine tools are organized in three modes: Setup, Edit and Operation. Access Modes using the mode keys as follows: Setup: Edit: ZERO RET, HAND JOG keys. Provides all control features for machine setup. EDIT, MDI/DNC, LIST PROG keys. Provides all program editing, management, and transfer functions. MEM key. Provides all control features necessary to make a part.
Operation:
Current mode is displayed at top of display. Functions from another mode can still be accessed within the active mode. For example, while in the Operation mode, pressing OFFSET will display the offset tables as the active pane in the Main Display Pane and offsets may be altered; press OFFSET to toggle the offset display. While running a part in operation mode another program may be edited in the Main Display Pane. Press PROGRM CONVRS in most modes to shift to the edit pane for the current active program.

which tool turned and put correct X Geometry in Tool Offsets page.
NEXT TOOL In set up this will select the next tool and make a tool index. X/Z - Toggles between X-axis and Z-axis jog modes during a set up. Z FACE MEASURE Used to record Z tool offsets and Z work offsets.
2 Jog Keys
Chip FWD (Chip Conveyer Forward) Turns the chip conveyer in a direction that removes chips from the
work cell.
Chip STOP (Chip Auger Stop) Stops chip conveyer movement. Chip REV (Chip Auger Reverse) Turns the chip conveyer in reverse. <-TS Moves tailstock toward the spindle. TS Rapid Increases speed of tailstock movement when used concurrently with the other TS keys. ->TS - Moves tailstock away from spindle. +X, -X (Axis) Selects the X axis for continuous motion when depressed. +Z, -Z (Axis) Selects the Z axis for continuous motion when depressed. Rapid When pressed simultaneously with X or Z keys will move at maximum jog speed.
Page 12
3 Override Keys
The overrides are at the lower right of the control panel. They give the user the ability to override the speed of rapid traverse motion, as well as programmed feeds and spindle speeds.
-10 FEED RATE Decreases current feed rate in increments of 10 percent. 100% FEED RATE Resets the control feed rate to the programmed feed rate. +10 FEED RATE Increases current feed rate in increments of 10 percent. HANDLE CONTROL FEED RATE Hand wheel will control feed rate at 1% increments. -10 SPINDLE Decreases current spindle speed in increments of 10 percent. 100% SPINDLE Sets the control spindle speed at the programmed spindle speed +10 SPINDLE Increases current spindle speed in increments of 10 percent. HANDLE CONTROL FEED Hand wheel will control feed rate at 1% increments. CW Starts the spindle in the clockwise direction. STOP Stops the spindle. CCW Starts the spindle in the counterclockwise direction. 5% RAPID 25% RAPID 50% RAPID 100% RAPID Limits rapid moves to 5 percent of maximum.
Limits rapid moves to 25 percent of maximum. Limits rapid moves to 50 percent of maximum. Allows rapid traverse to feed at its maximum.
Override Usage
Feed rates may be varied from 0% to 999%. Feed rate override is ineffective during G74 and G84 tapping cycles. Spindle speeds may be varied from 0% to 999%. Depressing Handle Control Feed rate or Handle Control Spindle keys, the jog handle movement varies by +/-1% increments. Setting 10 will limit rapid movement to 50%. Settings 19, 20, 21 make it possible to disable override keys. Coolant may be over rode by depressing COOLNT button. Feed Hold - Stops rapid and feed moves. Cycle Start button must be depressed to resume machine feeds. Similar situation applies when Door Hold appears. Door must be closed and Cycle Start pressed to continue running program. Overrides may be reset to defaults with a M06, M30 or pressing RESET by changing Settings 83, 87 and 88 respectively.

4 Display Keys
PRGM/CONVRS Selects the active program pane (highlights in white). In MDI/DNC mode pressing a
second time will allow access to VQC (Visual Quick Code) and IPS (Intuitive Programming System)
POSIT (Position) Selects the positions display window (lower middle). Repeated pressing of the POSIT
key will toggle through relative positions in the Memory Mode. In Handle Jog mode all four are listed together. 1. POS-OPER digital display. This is a reference display only. Each axis can be zeroed out independently; then the display shows the axis position relative to where you decided to zero it. In the Handle Jog mode, you can press the X, Y or Z JOG keys and ORIGIN key to zero that selected axis. On this display page, you can also enter in an axis letter and number (X-1.25) and press ORIGIN to have that value entered in that axis display. 2. POS-WORK digital display. This position display tells how far away the tools are in X, Y and Z from the presently selected work offset zero point. 3. POS-MACH digital display. This is in reference to machine zero, the location that the machine moves to automatically when you press POWER UP/RESTART. This display will show the current distance from machine zero. 4. POS-TO-GO digital display. When you're running the machine, or when you have the machine in a Feed Hold, this incrementally displays the travel distance remaining in the active program block being run. This is useful information when you are stepping a program through during a set up. When the position pane is active one can change which axis is displayed simply by typing X or Y or Z or any combination and pressing write. Only that particular axis or combination will be displayed.
OFFSET Selects one of two offsets tables: Tool Geometry/Wear and Work Zero Offset. Depressing the
OFFSET button toggles between the two tables Tool Geometry/Wear table displays 50 tool length offsets (100 tool length offsets on older machines) - labeled (LENGTH) GEOMETRY - along with wear offsets. It also displays radius and tool tip type. The Work Zero Offset table has G54-G59 plus G154 P1 to G154 P99 offsets available. The WRITE/ENTER key will add the number in the input buffer to the selected offset, and the F1 key will replace the selected offset with the number entered into the input buffer. Offsets can also be entered using TOOL OFSET MEASUR and PART ZERO SET
Page 14
CURNT COMDS Ten different pages; use PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN
1. Operation Timers displays Power-On Time, Cycle Start Time, Feed Cutting Time. Hitting ORIGIN will clear any display that is highlighted by the cursor. Real time clock and date. System Variables, for machines with Macro Programming. All Active Codes, displays current and modal command values. Position information: Machine, Distance to Go, Operator, Work Coordinate. Tool life, displays the usage of each tool. An alarm can be set for the number of times you want that tool to be used, and when that condition has been met (that is, the tool has been used the set number of times), the machine will stop, with an alarm for you to check the condition of that tool. Pressing ORIGIN will clear the cursor-selected display, and pressing ORIGIN when the cursor is at the top of a column will clear the whole column. Tool Load displays the Tool Load Max % of each tool being used. You can use the Limit % column to set the maximum spindle load for a particular tool. When that condition has been met (the tool has reached maximum load), the machine will stop and alarm out for you to check the condition of that tool. Pressing ORIGIN will clear the cursor-selected display, and pressing ORIGIN when the cursor is at the top of a column will clear the whole column. Setting 84 determines the Overload Action when this limit is met. Also vibration loads may be entered. Maintenance times for various items may be loaded.

ALARM/MESGS Displays messages and current active alarms. Press right arrow key gives alarm
history. Press right arrow key again goes to the Alarm Viewer Page. Enter alarm number and press write will give detailed information on a particular alarm code.
PARAM/DGNOS Lists machine parameters that are seldom-modified values which change the
operation of the machine. These include servo motor types, gear ratios, speeds, stored stroke limits, lead screw compensations, motor control delays and macro call selections. All of these are rarely changed by the user and should be protected by Setting 7, PARAMETER LOCK. A second press of PARAM/DGNOS will show the diagnostics display. The PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys are then used to select one of two different pages. This display is for service diagnostic purposes, and the user will not normally need them.
Page 15
SETNG/GRAPH Displays settings - machine parameters and control functions that the user may need
to turn on and off or change to suit specific needs. A list of settings is found on page 30. Settings are organized into functionally similar page groups with a title. Settings are listed with a number and a short description, and a value or choice on the right. To find a particular setting, enter the setting number and then press either the up or down cursor arrow key to move to the desired setting. You can change a setting using the left or right cursor arrows to display the choices, or, if the setting contains a value, by typing in a new number. A message at the top of the screen will tell you how to change the selected setting. When you changed, it will flash on and off. A setting change is not active until it stops flashing. To activate, press WRITE/ENTER.
SETNG/GRAPH (2nd part) - The second press of SETNG/GRAPH will bring up the graphics display in
the Main Display Pane. In this screen you can dry-run a program without moving the axes or risking tool damage from any programming errors. This function is far more powerful than using DRY RUN, because all of your offsets and travel limits can be checked before any attempt is made to move the axes. The risk of a crash during setup is greatly reduced. The Graphics Screen will display the programmed tool path and generate an alarm if there are any problems. Some of the features of the Graphics display are controlled by selections made in the Settings display, on the page titled GRAPHICS. 1. Press either MEM or MDI and select the program that you want to run in Graphics. Graphics will also run in the Edit Mode. 2. Press SETNG/GRAPH twice. The top left line of the screen will list the GRAPHICS title. Above that line will list the mode you are in (MEM or MDI). The bottom lists explanations for use of function keys F1 through F4. The small window on the lower right side of the screen displays the whole table area during the simulation run, indicating the location of the tool and any zoom window. The center window of the display is a large window that represents a top-down perspective of the X and Y axes. This is where the tool path is displayed during graphic simulation of a CNC program. 3. Press CYCLE START to see all the X and Y-axis moves demonstrated. Note machine axis and spindle will not when graphic window is up. 4. To step through a program one block at a time in Graphics, press SINGLE BLOCK. 5. F1 is a help key. 6. Press F2 to zoom in on the Graphics view screen. Use PAGE DOWN to zoom in further and PAGE UP to expand the view. Use the Cursor Keys to position the new zoom window over the area you wish to zoom in on using the small window in the bottom right hand corner. Pressing HOME will display the whole table. After positioning the desired zoom window, press WRITE/ENTER to accept the view and CYCLE START to see the new view. F3 slows the execution speed of the graphic simulation F4 speeds up the execution speed of simulation. Use SINGLE BLOCK to step through a program in graphics to find any mistakes. During single block you can re-zoom your window to look at tool paths in tight corners etc. Also use position display to see find any discrepant values.

5 Cursor Keys
Cursor Keys The cursor keys are in the center of the control panel. They give the user
the ability to move to and through various screens and fields in the control. They are used extensively for editing and searching CNC programs. They may be arrows or commands.
Up/Down Moves up/down one item, block or field. Page Up/Down Used to change displays or move up/down one page when viewing a program. HOME Will move the cursor to the top-most item on the screen; in editing, this is the top left block of
the program. END Will take you to the bottom-most item of the screen. In editing, this is the last block of the program.
6 and 7 Alpha Keys and Numeric Keys

The Alpha Keys allow the user to enter the 26 letters of the alphabet along with some special characters. Depressing any Alphabet Key automatically puts that character in the Input Section of the control (lower left-hand corner).
SHIFT key provides access to the yellow characters shown in the upper left corner of some of
the alphanumeric buttons on the keyboard. Pressing SHIFT and then the desired white character key will enter that character into the input buffer.
EOB key enters the end-of-block character, which is displayed as a semicolon on the
screen and signifies the end of a programming block. It also moves the cursor to the next line. Parentheses are used to separate CNC program commands from user comments. They must always be entered as a pair. Example: (T1 End Mill) Also any time an invalid line of code is received through the RS-232 port, it is added to the program between parentheses.
() and (.) +=#*[]
These keys are used to define negative numbers and give decimal position.
These symbols are accessed by first pressing the SHIFT key and then the key with the desired symbol. They are used in macro expressions (Haas option) and in parenthetical comments within the program.

Settings
Scrolling through Settings with Jog Handle - The jog handle can now be used to scroll through the settings. In previous versions, the jog handle could only be used to scroll through (cursor-highlight) the parameters, but not the settings. This has been corrected. (Any Mill Control Ver. 10.15 and above; any Lathe Control Ver. 3.05 and above.) There are many settings which give the user various options over the control of their machine tool. Read the Settings section of the operators manual for all the possible options.

Power-Up Procedures
The TL Series lathe follows the same standard start-up procedures as with any other Haas machine, and should be followed in the procedure demonstrated below:
Main Power
1. Locate the main power switch on the back of the machines control cabinet, and switch it to the ON position.
Power-Up Procedure
After switching the main power supply on, we need to power-up the Haas control. That procedure is as follows: 1. Move the tailstock (if equipped) all the way to the far right of the limits of the machine, and leave the clamps on the tailstock loose. This will provide the saddle enough room to reference itself. CAUTION: the control does not know where the tailstock is, and there is a chance to crash if the tailstock is not in the home position! 2. Visually verify that all of the machines ways are clean and free of dirt, and any moving parts of the machine are clear of chips, coolant, etc and verify that there is sufficient air pressure (80 psi) to the machine 3. Press the Green POWER ON button located on the upper left corner of the Haas control. The machine will take a couple of minutes to load its software. 4. The machine is now Powered-On
Page 25
Machine Restart / Zero Return Procedure

After the control is powered on, we still need to reference the machine. Upon start-up, the control does not know the location of the cross slide (X axis) or the saddle (Z axis), so the machine needs to find these 2 axis thru a procedure known as a Zero Return. This will travel the machine to its farthest most limits so that the cross slide and saddle can be detected by the limit switches.
1. Locate the orange RESET key and push it to clear any alarms that are present, and to power on the servos of the machine. 2. Next to the RESET button is the POWER UP / RESTART button. Press it once and the machine will travel the X axis first, then the Z axis to their utmost farthest limits, which is all the way towards the operator on the X axis / cross-slide, and all the way to the right for the Z axis / saddle. The machine will stop at machine home, as described in section4.a.iii

Tool Room Lathe Safety

Emergency Stop Switch
Located on the left side of the control panel, there is a large, round, red button that is circled with a yellow ring. This is the EMERGENCY STOP or E-STOP button. In the event of a uncontrolled machine condition, a crash of the machine, or any situation that requires an immediate shut down of all axis functions, movement, spindle functions and power to the servos of the machine, the Emergency Stop button should be used. This button is used to halt everything on the machine immediately!
Emergency Stop (E-STOP)
Page 27
Proper Use of Machine Guarding

The Toolroom Series of lathes comes equipped as an open machine, much like that of a manual lathe. The handwheels, chuck, tailstock and toolpost are all exposed and in an open environment. Extreme concern should be used when the machine is moving in ANY mode of operation, but especially in CNC mode. The handwheels will be turning, and it is possible for loose clothing, hair, etc to get caught within the moving parts of the machine. Also, extreme care should be taken when around the chuck and part as it turns. The main motor of the machine has a large amount of power, and can be dangerous. Extreme care should be taken to avoid a collision between any tooling or the tool-post and the chuck. It is possible to do exactly that. In any event, all TL series machines come either equipped with a hinged shield that surrounds the chuck, or a complete set of sheet metal that encloses the machine and the machine should not be run with any guards open. In the current version of the TL series of software, it is impossible to run in either manual or CNC modes with the guarding open. The setting on the control may be changed, but changing this setting rests all responsibility on the operator and or the owners of the machine. Neither Haas, Productivity, nor any individuals of either company can be responsible for bypassing ANY safety settings on the machine.
Dead Man Switch

Located on the right hand side of the Haas control, with a coiled cord, is a Dead-Man Switch. Anytime a command is given to the control, where-as it is by MDI mode, Manual Mode, or thru full CNC Mode, and this command generates machine movement (axis, spindle, etc.) both the Dead Man Switch and the Cycle Start Button will need to be held at the same time. This is a requirement of OSHA to be complacent with their standards for safe operation on any machine that has automation. Other words, a two handed start I needed to start any function of the machine.
Page 28
Hand Wheel Safety
Again, the TL Series of lathes when in CNC mode will still move the manual handwheels as the machine moves. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THE HANDWHEELS TO AVOID ANY INJURY!!!! Even though elaborate thought has been put into making sure the TL series is safe, extra caution needs to been given to any moving part of the machine!!!
Page 29
Maintenance of the TL Series Lathe

Even though your TL Series machine has been built to the highest standards, using the highest available techniques and materials, general maintenance is required on both the machine and on the control to insure long life of its components. Haas has gone thru extensive testing to verify the specifications on the required lubricants and filters that went into your new machine before they ever entered Haass production, please use parts, filters, and lubricants that are as specified to insure longevity of the life of your or your bosss investment. This will maintain the highest levels of performance and accuracies for the longest possible time. If there is any question on what exactly to use, please refer to the Operators Manual for these specifications or contact the Productivity Service and Parts Department for the proper fluids and parts required for maintenance.

Headstock Lubricant
The headstock or spindle of the TL series machine is a grease-pack design, and will not require any regular maintenance.
Grease Points
The TL series lathes are equipped with grease fittings rather than an oil lube system to provide surface to surface lubrication for all contact points on the machine. The linear ways, the ballscrews, and the tailstock are all equipped with grease fittings, and they should be lubricated weekly to insure consistent performance and accuracy of your machine.
TL Series Lubrication Points
1. X-axis cross-slide trucks 2. X-axis cross-slide ball screw 3. Z-axis saddle trucks 4. Tail-stock screw 5. Z-axis saddle ball screw 6. Tailstock base; four places For the lubrication points shown above, a general purpose lithium grease is required with enough volume to push grease out from the front and back of the linear ways, and from around the ball screw bearing housings
Aloris Tool Post Operation

The most often equipped option for the TL series lathe for holding your turning tools is the Aloris Single Station Tool Post option. This system allows for setting individual tools in their own respective holders, and allows for a repeating, quick change system, that has extensive options to allow for safe holding of a wide variety of different tooling products.
Aloris Super-Precision Tool Post
All that is required of the operator to switch from one tool to the next, is to swing the handle in a counter-clockwise direction to release the current tool, pull the tool-holder up and off of the Aloris dovetail, slide on the next tool onto the Aloris dovetail, and swing the lever till clockwise to firmly clamp the tool-holder against the toolpost. CAUTION: Please take care to never change tools while the machine has the spindle turning or while the axis are moving!!
Page 32
3 Jaw Scroll Jaw Chuck Operation

The standard Haas option for the TL series lathe for part holding is a 3-jaw scroll plate chuck, that is key operated from the outer diameter of the chuck. Simply rotate the chuck key in a clockwise direction to draw the jaws of the chuck closer to the chuck center, and counter-clockwise to move the jaws away from the chuck center. The configuration of the chuck jaws and part holding is up to the operator to decide which is best for that particular project.
3-Jaw Scroll Chuck / Key CAUTION: The chuck key comes equipped with a spring on the end to prevent accidentally starting the spindle with the chuck key engaged to the chuck. DO NOT REMOVE THE SPRING FROM THE KEY!!!!! Starting the spindle with the chuck key engaged will lead to extensive machine damage and potential physical harm for the operator!
Page 33
HAAS Intuitive Programming System (IPS)
The most outstanding feature on the TL Series of Haas machines is the Intuitive Programming System, or IPS. This is a simplified programming system that allows for much faster programming and setup of the machine, and allows the operator to program using a question and answer format, rather than a G&M code format. The objective of this section is to go thru the different IPS system Tabs and Menus and how each relates to generating fast and accurate parts from the TL Series Lathe. The best way to do this from a training point of view, is to start with a typical part print that would be seen by a Toolroom Lathe machinist, and go thru step by step with the IPS to show how to manufacture that part on the TL Series Lathe.
Page 34
To enter the IPS system, press the MDI/DNC mode key on the right hand side of the control. Then press PRGRM/CONVRS . The screen below appears:
The cursor keys at the middle of the Haas control navigate thru the different TABS from left to right, Pressing the WRITE/ENTER key will access the selected tab. If there are multiple choices under each tab, again use the right and left cursor control to navigate in the SUB-TABS to select the cycle you want to program. At any time, pressing the CANCEL button will back out of any SUB-TAB or TAB.
Page 35
Using the UP/DOWN cursor keys will navigate you thru each piece of information that has to be entered into each specific cycle the IPS can program. Below the tab Manual has been opened.
One way the machine may be moved manually using the red handles is by opening this screen up. The only other way the machine may be put in handle manual mode is by pressing the HAND JOG key and pressing the yellow shift key in conjunction with either the +Z, -Z or +X, -X or both jog keys. In this mode Tool Geometry may be set by establishing a part Z zero by facing the part off manually. The spindle is commanded on by entering a value for the spindle speed and pressing either the FWD or REV buttons. The spindle speed override keys ( +/- 10%) can be used to adjust the commanded speed from the manual mode screen. With the spindle turned on a facing and turning cut may be made manually by turning the handles just like on an engine lathe. This will allow geometries to be set for most of the outside diameter cutting tools.
Page 36
Another way to establish a face and turned surface is to go the IPS screen TURN & FACE and open the FEED tab below to open the following screen.
In this mode the tool is brought up to the face or turning position manually. Next, a DELTA X or a DELTA Z distance selected. A feed and spindle speed is entered. The delta x or delta z values are the incremental distance machine will move at the prescribed feed and speed from the present position it is at. Pressing the F4 key then selecting Output to MDI will create the program into MDI. With a DELTA X of -3.0 entered the following short facing program may be created and run in MDI.

TL Series Training Part

Tool Offsets Tab

Tool offsets must be set before an automatic operation can be run. We must define each tool to the control so that the control knows the type, length, size, shape and direction that the tool is made to cut. Before we can cut a part, we need to determine how many operations are needed (turning, threading, drilling, tapping, grooving, etc..) and what tools will be needed for each operation. For our part that is drawn above, we need have the following processes that need to be done: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Turn the 2.750 Dia Turn the 1.750 Dia Face the end of the part Turn the .08x.08 chamfer Turn the .250 Radius Groove the back of the thread Turn the 1.75x10 thread Drill the -20 tapped hole Tap the -20 tapped hole
Processes #1-5 can be performed with any standard OD turning tool such as the ones pictured here:
We will call this TOOL # 1 Process #6 Needs a grooving tool that can plunge and cut on the sides, such as the one pictured here:
We will call this TOOL# 2

Process # 7 is our OD Thread, and needs to be performed with an OD Threading tool, like this:
We will call this Tool #3 For Process # 8, we need to drill the hole for our tap, a .201 Dia drill like this:
Tool #4 And for Process # 9, we will tap our hole with a -20 tap like this:
Tool #5
Page 40
Navigate the IPS system to the SETUP tab and open the Tool tab by pressing WRITE/ENTER. The screen below will be displayed.
By pressing the TURRET FWD or TURRET REV key, one can cycle between tools #1-20, depending on the version of software your TL series has. Each tool will have the same information listed. After selecting the tool it must be made active by pressing the NEXT TOOL key. The active tool will be displayed in the lower right hand corner of the control display. Arrow down to Tool Type and select the correct designation by using right and left cursor keys. Enter the OFFSET number, usually the same number as the tool number.
Page 41
Defining Turning Tools

Load Tool #1, the OD Turning Tool on to the Aloris Toolpost and handwheel the machine over to the OD of our material, and using a feeler gauge bring the tool in till it touches. Press the X DIA MEASURE key, and the control will ask for the diameter at which we are holding the tool at. Enter the measured diameter example of 3.000 and press the WRITE ENTER key. The control will automatically write the X Offset into the X offset box. Next, handwheel the machine over and touch Tool #1 to the face of our part using the feeler gauge, and simply press the Z FACE MEASURE key. This will automatically store the Z Offset for that tool. All that is left to do is enter the tool nose radius for that insert, and define the Tool Tip Type, or in simpler terms, which direction the tool is pointing towards the part. This is needed wherever the control has to perform a cutter compensation command. With the TL series lathe, we will use mainly one of two tool tip definitions, on the next page:
Tool Tip # 3 For OD Turning Operations
Tool Tip #2 For ID Turning Operations
Page 42
All other tools such as drilling tools (drills, taps, reamers, etc.) parting tools and threading tools will use tool tip #0 Other information such as TOOL SHANK, TOOL LENGTH, STEP HEIGHT, TL THICKNESS and TOOL NOSE need not be entered. This information is needed only if live imaging is used. Define Tool #2 and Tool #3 the same way as we did number one. The only difference is that a radius or a tool tip definition is not required on either tool. Make sure the respective tools are made active before setting offsets by using the NEXT TOOL key.
Defining Drills, Reamers, etc.

The process to defining a center drilling tool that is mounted to the tool post is also performed the same way. For example, mount the drilling chuck on to the Aloris Tool Post, and insert our .201 drill into the chuck, and align the drill so that the flute tips of the drill are horizontal to the cross slide of the machine. Simply handwheel the drill over to the diameter of our stock and use a feeler gauge, pick up the edge of the part. Press the X DIAM MEASURE key, and again the control will ask for our diameter, but since we need to compensate for our radius of our drill, ADD .201 to the diameter of the stock, thus we enter for example 3.201 for a diameter. The same process is used for touching the Z, simply by bringing the tool to the face of the part, and press Z FACE MEASURE. Since we have found the center of the drill chuck, it is the same for all tools we use in the drill chuck. We can use the same X offset for the drill and the tap. Simply index to Tool #5, insert the tap into the drill chuck, Manual enter the X offset distance from Tool #4, and use the Z FACE MEASURE feature to touch the tip of the tap to the face of the part. Our tooling for our part is now defined, and the program for the machine now needs to be created.
Page 43
Turn & Face Tab

All of the Turning and Facing operations for the IPS are located under the TURN & FACE main tab, so back out to the main tab selection view, and use the right or left cursor keys to highlight the TURN & FACE tab.
Press WRITE ENTER to access the TURN / FACE mode, then select OD TURN to start our processes 1&2. The display below will appear:
Page 44
The variables that the OD Turn Function will need to know, and are listed as follows:
IPS OD Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset Start Diameter Finish Diameter Depth Of Cut Z Dimension Feed Per Revolution Surface Footage Max Spindle Speed Relationship To The Part Tool To Be Used Always G54 If IPS Used to Touch Off Tools What diameter to start cutting at Diameter to cut to How Much Material Per Pass How Far From Face - Back to Turn Amount of Feed Per 1 Spindle Turn Recommended Insert SFM Max RPM Of Spindle For The Cycle
For the 1st process, our 2.500 Diameter, we will enter the answers below:
IPS OD Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset Start Diameter Finish Diameter Depth Of Cut Z Dimension Feed Per Revolution Surface Footage Max Spindle Speed Relationship To The Part 1 G54 3.000 2.500 .100 2.25 .011 350 1500
Once all the variables have been answered, make sure Tool #1 is mounted to the tool post, reduce our rapid override to 5%, and press CYCLE START. The turning program created will be run in the MDI mode. The TL Lathe will rough out from 3.000 in Diamater, to 2.500, 3.000 back from the face of the part, then take a finish pass.
Page 45
IPS Recorder Feature

Now, the next part of the IPS system that makes it unique is that the program created may be recorded into a new program or added to a program in memory. Press the F4 key and the IPS RECORDER pop up screen will appear. Cursor key to option #1, press enter and a new program may be created or an old one selected. Option #2 will record program to current program in the active memory. For this example program O1 was created.
Page 46
Now we need to setup process #2, our 1.750 Diameter. Enter the OD Roughing variables into the chart below for the 1.750 OD Cycle. Now create the code with IPS. This code will be added to the bottom of program O1.
IPS OD Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset Start Diameter Finish Diameter Depth Of Cut Z Dimension Feed Per Revolution Surface Footage Max Spindle Speed Relationship To The Part
Face Cutting Cycle

The face cutting cycle is similar to the OD Cycle; it just roughs and finishes across the end of the part, then the OD. Enter the variables to face the end of our part.
IPS Face Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset Start Diameter Finish Diameter Depth Of Cut Z Dimension Feed Per Revolution Surface Footage Max Spindle Speed Relationship To The Part
Since on the first part all the tools were touched off on a cleaned up face , no material would be removed when if this cycle was run, but assuming there are multiple parts to run, one would record this feature also. This code would be the first operation in program O1.
Page 47
CHAMFER Cutting Cycle: Next G-code will be created for process #4, out .08 x .08 chamfer on the end of the threads. Press CANCEL till we get back to the MAIN TABS screen, use the RIGHT or LEFT CURSORS to move to the OD CHAMFER menu below: Fill out the details that are needed for the chamfer:
IPS Chamfer Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset X Diameter Length Depth Of Cut Z Dimension Feed Per Revolution Surface Footage Max Spindle Speed Relationship To The Part
Page 48
The variables are entered into the IPS chamfer menu. This code will be created and recorded at the end of O1.
Page 49
Radius Cycle Menu

Many of the IPS menus are very similar to each other; all that is need is answering questions to the control and its pictures. Operation #5 is to turn the .250 radius on the 2.500 diameter. Navigate to the OD RADIUS Tab and enter the information needed below:
IPS OD Radius Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset X Diameter Radius Depth Of Cut Z Start Feed Per Revolution Surface Footage Max Spindle Speed Relationship To The Part
Add the code created from above to the end of Program O1.
Page 50
Groove Cutting Cycle

Navigate back to the main tabs menu. Select GROOVING, then select OD GROOVE to do process #6. Input the information the IPS is asking for, verify it cuts a good part, then use the recorder again to record this feature.
IPS OD Groove Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset X Start Diameter Z Face Diam. To Cut Groove Width Grooving Tool Width Feed Per Revolution Surface Footage Max Spindle Speed
Relationship To The Part
Page 51
Thread Cutting Cycle

The next operation, #7, is to turn the 1.75 x 10 OD thread. Threading with IPS is simple. Navigate to the main tabs menu, and go to the THREADING tab, and then select the OD THREAD sub-tab. The threading uses standard threading terms. Simply answer the questions the menu asks for.
IPS OD Thread Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset X Start Diameter Z Face Thread Length Minor Diam. Major Diam. TPI Depth Of Cut Spindle RPM Relationship To The Part
Input the answers into the threading cycle, and run the cycle to make sure we have a good thread. Once we are to size, RECORD the thread cycle with the IPS recorder.
CAUTION: Once the control has started a pass of threading, FEED HOLD does not stop the machine till in-between passes. If the event of a potential crash, EMERGENCY STOP needs to be used!!
Page 52
Drill Cycle
We could always use the tailstock to drill a centerline hole in the part, but with CNC capability, we can simply use the Tool Post to do so, and have an automatic drilling with pecks. Go to the DRILL / TAP menu and select PECK DRILLING and we will get the menu below:
For peck drilling, just simply enter the values listed below, cycle the menu to make sure we get the correct depth, and then record it with IPS.
IPS Peck Drilling Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset X Centerline Z Face Depth Spindle RPM Feed Per Rev. Peck Depth Relationship To The Part
Page 53
Tapped Hole Cycle

When we tap a hole with the TL Series, the TAP CYCLE sub tab has the same variables that the Drill Cycle uses, the only difference is that the Spindle will reverse at the bottom of the hole and back the tap out automatically.
IPS RH Tap Cycle Question Tool Number Part Offset X Centerline Z-Face Depth Spindle RPM TPI
Relationship to the Part
Once we have recorded all of our features of our part, we will have one complete program for the part. If we want to run another part just like it, select O1 and Cycle Start. We will have to press cycle start between every operation to change our tools when we need to.
Page 54
To run an old G&M program saved to memory, select the program that you want to run, load up the tools that were last used to run that program, and enter the Tool Offsets in the IPS menu just like we did before. Go to the LIST PROG menu and select the program, press MEMORY mode on the Haas Control, and push CYCLE START. The Haas control will accept any standard ISO G&M code program, and will understand the code, but if you are interested in learning more about G&M code programming, please contact Productivity Inc. and sign up for our Lathe Programming class. The TL Series is built around the IPS system and is designed to take advantage of it, and thus the only reason we teach only the IPS for its operation. Before running a complete part run the part in the graphics mode. If there are any code structure problems, tool over travels the graphic mode will alarm out. Below is the code created for the training part run in graphics mode.

Introduction These instructions are an in-depth look at each of the Intuitive Programming System (IPS) menus. A more formal description is given for each of the entries to help better define the on-screen help for new users. These instructions are to be used with the Lathe Operators Manual (96-8700) and Toolroom Lathe Operators Addendum (96-0112) The menus are navigated by using the left and right arrow keys. To select a menu item, press Write/Enter. Some menus have sub-menus, in which case, use the left and right arrow keys and press Write/Enter to select a sub-menu. Use the arrow keys to navigate through the variables, enter values by using the number pad, and then press Write/Enter. To exit, or go back to another selection, press Cancel. Pressing any of the buttons under the Display heading will exit the IPS menus, as will any of the mode keys (i.e. Edit, Mem, MDI, etc.). To return to the IPS menu, press Handle Jog. A representation of the machine keypad is included at the end of this document for reference. This guide will help the user develop full CNC programs by means of the IPS screen. Note that a program entered through the Toolroom Lathe screens is also accessible by going to full CNC MDI mode. The program can be edited and saved from the full CNC mode.
NOTE: The IPS menu is displayed at power up, and is available in the following configurations:
10 LCD and software version 7.xx and earlier - IPS 15 LCD and software version 8.03 and earlier - IPS (upgradable to Profile Creator) 15 LCD and software version 8.04A and later - IPS with Profile Creator
Manual Mode Power on the machine and press RESET until all alarms have cleared. Press POWER ON/RESTART to zero the machine. The IPS menu can now be accessed by pressing MDI DNC, then pressing PRGRM CONVRS. Press WRITE/ENTER to display the IPS menu MANUAL tab.

X and Z Axes
Just below the on-screen text is a line of text that shows the state the lathe is in. For example, X -MAN means the X -axis is in manual mode. No text beneath the on-screen help means both axes (X and Z are locked. In this case the axes can be jogged, by pressing +X/-X or +Z/-Z and then using the jog handle on the pendant. Select a jog speed before using the jog handle.
Spindle
The spindle is controlled using the keys on the control pendant. Enter a spindle speed; for example, press 5, then 0, then Write/Enter. This will enter a speed of 50RPM. Ensure the area around the spindle is free of tools and workpieces, press the hold to run switch and then press either the FWD or REV button. The spindle speed override keys ( +/- 10%) can be used to adjust the commanded speed. This also works on most screens.

Press the Up and Down arrows to change the displayed Work Zero Offset. X Clearance Works with Z Clearance to define a tail stock travel restriction zone that limits interaction between the tail stock and the tool turret. It determines the X-axis travel limit when the difference between the Z-axis location and the tail stock location falls below the value in Z Clearance. If this condition occurs and a program is running, an alarm is generated. When jogging, no alarm is generated, but travel is limited. Press Write to add or F1 to set position. Enter a value and either press Write to add the value to the current value, or F1 to replace the value with the entered value. When highlighting X CLEARANCE, pressing X DIA MEAS takes the value of the X axis and places it in X CLEARANCE. Pressing ORIGIN when highlighting X CLEARANCE sets clearance to max travel. Z Clearance Minimum allowable difference between the Z-axis and the tail stock. A value of -1.0000 means that when the X-axis is below the X clearance plane, the Z-axis must be more than 1 inch away from the tail stock position in the Z-axis negative direction. The default value for this setting is zero. Press Write to add F1 to set or Part Zero Set to record current position. Enter a value and either press Write to add the value to the current value, or F1 to replace the value with the entered value. Press Part Zero Set to record the Z Offset current position. When highlighting Z CLEARANCE, pressing Z FACE MEAS takes the value of the Z axis and places it in Z CLEARANCE. Pressing ORIGIN when highlighting Z CLEARANCE sets clearance to zero.

DXF File Importer This feature can quickly build a CNC G-code program from a DXF file, a drawing file format exportable from many desktop CAD applications. Compatible DXF files are made up of arcs, lines, circles, vertices, and/or points. Refer to your CAD applications documentation for details on how to export a DXF file. When importing a DXF file, you define its features one by one as tool paths; G-code is generated for each tool path that can then be placed in any new or existing program. DXF Importer for lathes is used to create ID and OD part profiles, for other features (threads, etc.), use IPS. Importing
the
DXF File
Note: Tools should be set up in IPS before starting this process.
1. Press LIST PROG, select the tab for the device (USB, Hard Drive, or Floppy) containing the DXF file and press Write/Enter. Use the cursor arrows to highlight the DXF file and press Write/Enter to select it. 2. Press F2 and select memory. The control will recognize the DXF file and import it into the editor.

Live Image for Lathes

Live Image feature
This feature allows an operator to view a real time simulation of a part as it is cut. Live Image is standard with lathe software version 9.03 and later. Live Imaging of a part requires that the operator setup stock and tools before running the part program. Setup Stock Setup Data values for stock and jaw dimensions are stored in the Stock Setup screen. Live Image applies this stored data to each tool.
NOTE: Turn Setting 217 ON (as shown in Settings) to show the chuck jaws in the display.
1. Press MDI/DNC, then PRGRM CONVRS to enter IPS JOG mode.
2. Use the right/left arrow keys to select the SETUP tab and press Write/Enter. Use the right/left arrow keys to select the STOCK tab and press Write/Enter to display the Stock Setup screen.

Program Example
% O01000; ; G20 (INCH MODE) ; (Start of Live Image information) (STOCK); ([0.0000, 0.1000] [[6.0000, 6.0000]) ; ([Hole Size, Face] [Diameter, Length]) (JAWS); ([1.5000, 1.5000] [0.5000, 1.0000]) ; ([Height, Thickness] [Clamp, Step Height]) (End of Live Image Information) M01 ; ; [Part Program] The advantage of entering the Stock Settings into the program is that these settings may be saved with the program, and the Stock Setup screen does not require the entry of data when the program is run in the future. Further settings for Live Image, such as X and Z Offset, Rapid Path and Feed Path Live Image and Show Chuck Jaws are accessed by pressing SETNG GRAPH, typing in the first LIVE IMAGE setting (202) and pressing the up arrow.
