User-friendly shop floor programming

Manual Guide i, the user-friendly software for shop floor programming, makes it easier for you to
operate the machine. The innovative programming enables development from a drawing to a production
part in a very short time. Thanks to Manual Guide i, FANUC CNCs can be programmed, very easily
and quickly, for turning, milling and compound machining. Self-explanatory menus and graphic
simulations guide the user through the programming, producing highly efficient results even for complex
machining processes.

The FANUC Manual Guide i software is based on the ISO code format and has an ergonomic CNC
user interface for programming cycles. It uses a Graphical User Interface with user-friendly icons which
allow you to interactively create part programs in just a few steps. All of the relevant information is
displayed on one CNC screen. Having to constantly change between screens is thus avoided as is the
risk of getting lost in the numerous pop-up screens.

This training book will give you an overview of Manual Guide i software for the programming
of lathe applications, including three practical programming examples. It was developed by
specialists and will facilitate your introduction to Manual Guide i software. You will be ready to
program even complicated parts with Manual Guide i once you have worked your way through the
three examples.

We wish you lots of fun and success when programming. We would be delighted to hear from you if
you have any suggestions relating to this training document.

 2. The CNC controller and
operating panel
The programming software Manual
Guide i runs on all Series i CNC con-
Series 16i/18i/21i-Model B CNC
trollers from FANUC. In this way we
have combined the highest reliability Series 30i/31i/32i CNC
with uncomplicated shop floor pro-
gramming. The targeted end result is
high machine availability as well as
quicker work progress.

 4. Basic program functions

The following three main operating modes are available to the user:
EDIT (create or change a new program)
MEM (execute or graphically simulate a program)
JOG (manual operation).

4.1 EDIT operating mode

The EDIT operating mode has clear and self-explanatory menus. The user can select from among the fol-
lowing: create, change, copy, delete a new program as well as input or display the program on an exter-
nal data carrier.

Using the soft keys, you can select all other menus from the main menu.

Uncomplicated selection thanks to the soft keys:

 4.1 EDIT operating mode

4.1.1 Creating a new program

To create a new program, press the soft key “New Program”

Then enter a program number between 1 and 9999, e.g.: 100 and press the soft key “CREATE”.
The program no. 100 is opened.

If a program number has already been allocated, it is indicated by a corresponding message.

The new program is entered as follows:

START
CYCLE
END

Each cycle consists of the following two parts:

Cutting conditions
Geometric data (workpiece contour)

10
Program start: START

A personal template can be predefined for the program start and be simply called up by pressing the soft
key “START“ in the Selection menu.

The required data for workpiece machin-

ing is entered step by step. The diagram
of the program start with the description
of the blank part for graphical simulation
as well as tool function or replacement
are repeated with minor modifications.

The controller allows you to store recurring program parts as a template in the start menu and to easily call them
up as required. Typical application examples are: program start, tool function or tool replacement and program
end.

The blank part definition has its own

selection and input menu.

11
 4.1 EDIT operating mode

Machining: CYCLE

There are a wide variety of machining cycles available for lathe machining. To select the required cycle
press the soft key CYCLE.

Selection is uncomplicated as can be seen in the illustration below. In this example the exterior of a
cylindrical blank part is being machined. The corresponding menu is selected via the cursor and confirmed
by pressing the soft key “SELECT”. The cutting conditions menu then appears on the screen.

Cutting conditions

The cutting conditions are entered into the following screen mask:

After the cutting conditions have been entered, the contour description screen mask automatically appears.

12
 Example of workpiece

The workpiece contour to be machined is geometrically described

as per the drawing.
Normally this figure can only be programmed by an experienced
programmer. This problem can be easily solved with the Manual
Guide i.

Workpiece contour for the cycle

The workpiece contour is described with the help of the following soft keys:

In the illustration below you can see the entries for radius 40 of the previous example.

Only the positions seen in the drawing for the centre point and the radius are entered. The finish points
are unknown.

13
 4.1 EDIT operating mode

The adjacent graphics automatically appear,

once the entry is complete. You can track the
previously entered contour elements at the
top of the screen.

Unknown transitions are automatically calcu-

lated by the CNC.

The finished workpiece contour displayed on

the screen.

The following entries were required for the example:

1. Contour start X20 Z0 5.

End X70 Z-70
2.
End Z-15
6.
Close end Z0
3. Radius R40
Centre X100 Z-15
Last connection TANGENTS
Next connection TANGENTS 7.
Contur end X20 Z0

4. Radius R14
Next connection TANGENTS

The above workpiece contour is described with a few simple entries!

The workpiece contour also has the option of being stored as a separate subprogram so that the figure can
be used for multiple operations, e.g. roughing and finishing. This considerably reduces programming.

14
4.1.2 Program list
All the programs in the program list are displayed when the soft key “0 LIST” is pressed.

The following information is displayed:

program number, comment, date of
creation or alteration, time, size of the
program and cycle time.

Program list options:

NEW New program M-CARD Memory card
COPY Copy program ALL DEL Delete all
DELETE Delete program SRTORD Sort programs
EDCOM Edit comment OPEN Open program
SEARCH Search program

Program input and display

The CNC controller conveniently allows you, by means of a standard memory card, to rapidly read in/out
programs and all other data such as tool offset, as well as machine and controller data. The reading in/out
of data is fully controlled by the menu using the soft keys.

The content of the memory card can also be displayed on the CNC controller screen. This guarantees an
unrestricted, uncomplicated and above all a quick data exchange.

15
 4.1 EDIT operating mode

4.1.3 Changing the program

Press the soft key “OPEN” to display and subsequently make changes to the program.

By pressing the soft key “ALTER”‚ cycles are reconverted into the original input menu.

In the following example, the cycle G1120: TURNING (OUTER ROUGH) is selected. The precise meaning
of the respective function is displayed in the marked field.

The changes are made in the input menu and are accepted by pressing the soft key “ALTER”.

16
4.2 MEM operating mode

4.2 MEM operating mode

Programs can be graphically simulated, executed and converted to DIN/ISO in this operating mode.

4.2.1 Graphically simulating the program

A program is graphically simulated in this operating mode. There are two different types of display:

a) Solid body graphical animation b) Tool path-line graphics

The machining is realistically displayed in solid body animation. You see the material removal by the
corresponding machining tool. The movement of the tool tip is displayed as a line in the tool path-line
graphics.

Zoom Function

By selecting the area using soft keys, detailed

magnifications can be easily achieved.

It is as easy to operate as a DVD player.

17
 4.3 JOG operating mode

4.2.2 Converting the program into ISO format

A “Manual Guide i” program can be fully converted to a standard ISO program. Such a program is
hence not dependent on the make of the CNC controller. As a result you have the option of universally
using the “Manual Guide i” program in the entire production area.

4.2.3 Executing the program

A program created using the “Manual Guide i” can be executed directly in the original format. You do
not have to convert the program to execute it.

4.3 JOG operating mode

The machine can be manually operated in this operating mode. Using the JOG keys or a hand wheel, the
feed of the axes being processed can be either manually selected or at rapid. Amongst other things, the
workpiece zero point and offset are determined if the machine does not have an automatic measuring
device or has no external tool pre-setting.

18
5. General information

The workpiece rotates in a standard lathe. It is clamped in a chuck or a collet chuck. The machining tools
are secured in the tool holder (indexer/turret) and are moved in two axes, in the Z direction (longitudinal
motion, parallel to the headstock spindle axis) and in the X direction (transverse motion).

5.1 Lathe co-ordinate system

There are also lathes with more than two axes. The work spindle can be designed as the “C” axis. It can
then be positioned at any angle or its feed can be controlled so that it is possible to drill and mill with
rotating tools at the face or lateral surface.

If the tool holder (indexer/turret) can also be adjusted heightwise it is the “Y” axis. There are also
machines with a counter spindle, where the workpieces can be automatically machined from two sides.

The different machining levels are differentiated by G codes:

G18 = Movement in the axes XZ

G17 = Drilling and milling on the face at the end face XY
G19 = Drilling and milling at the lateral surface YZ

19
 5.2 Zero point selection

5.2 Zero point selection

Each moving axis of a CNC machine has a measuring system. Once the machine has been switched on,
these measuring systems must be synchronised with the CNC controller. There are reference points for
this purpose in the measuring systems, which are found at the positive end of the axis’s traverse path
and are usually started manually. There are also machines with absolute measuring systems whereby
the reference points are superfluous.

Symbol for the reference point

The workpiece zero point can be freely selected from the entire positioning range. The user logically sets
the zero point to be programmed at the place it is easiest to program. This is nearly always in the Z axis
(the front of the workpiece diagram) in the case of a lathe, and is the centre of the work piece in the X
axis. The X axis dimensions are programmed in diameter.

Symbol for the workpiece zero point

20
6. ISO programming

Minimal knowledge of ISO programming is required for program inputting with “Manual Guide i ”.
Machining cycles are called up via 4-digit G functions. The G-code itself is irrelevant to the user as the data
is entered by graphic input displays. There are very few G-functions which the user must know in order to
be able to work with “Manual Guide i ”. These are explained below.

G0 = Rapid Traverse
With the command “G0”, one or several machine axes can simul-
taneously be moved. The axes in question move at high speed
from the start to the target point without interpolating,
e.g.: G0 X100 Z2.

G1 = Feed
With the command “G1” one or several machine axes can
simultaneously be moved at a programmed feed rate. In this
case, the axes in question move along a straight interpolating
line from the start to the target point.
For lathes the feed is normally programmed in mm/revs,
e.g.: G1 X100 Z-50 F0.3
(F = feed rate).

G90 = Absolute programming

In the case of absolute programming, all of the programmed

positions refer to the selected workpiece zero point.
Example G90 G0 Z-50
Z-70
Z-110
Z-140
Z-170
Z-200

21
 6. ISO programming

G91 = Incremental programming

In the case of incremental programming, each
dimension refers to the previous position.

Example: G91 G0 Z-50

Z-20
Z-40
Z-30
Z-30
Z-30

The functions G90/G91 and G0/G1 are “self-maintaining (modal)”, which means that they remain
active until they are overwritten by the corresponding “counter function”.

G96 = Constant cutting speed

This function serves to keep the cutting speed, for each workpi-
ece diameter, constant at the tool tip.
Through the G96 function, the CNC controller automatically
calculates the corresponding speed for each diameter position
(X axis). The work spindle speed is constantly altered in the case
of facing, taper turning or radius turning.
The cutting speed is programmed in m/min as address “S”. As
the diameter increases the speed decreases; for smaller diame-
ters the speed can increase up to the maximum possible speed.
To avoid damage due to centrifugal forces, the speed can be limi-
ted to the respective program through the corresponding com-
mand (see G92 speed limitation).

Example: G96 S250 s [m/min]

G97 = Direct speed programming (R.P.M.)

Drilling, milling or other tools, whose diameters do not alter during machining,
are operated at a constant speed. It is also advisable to work at a constant speed
when threading. The adjacent formula is used to calculate the speed.
n = Speed in rpm
Vc = Cutting speed in m/min (255)
d = Diameter in mm (18,0)

Example: G97 S4509 s [rpm]

22
G92 = Speed limitation
The function “G92” together with the address “S” bring about a speed limitation. Very high speeds occur
when turning at a constant cutting speed, particularly when facing in the direction of the work spindle
centre (X axis). Where parts are unbalanced even a relatively low speed can be dangerous.

Example: G92 S3500 s [rpm]

The address “S” is used for three different functions. The corresponding G function assigns constant cut-
ting speed, direct speed or speed limitation. The G function and the S command must be in the same
block.

G94 = Feed in mm/min

G94 programs the feed in mm/min for drilling or milling tools. The adjacent
formula is used to calculate the feed in mm/min:
Vf = Feed in mm/min
n = Speed rpm (4509)
Z = Number of teeth (for drill bit 1)
Sz = Feed per tooth mm/tooth or mm/rev (0.25)

Example: F1127 F [mm/min]

G95 = Feed in mm/rev

G95 programs the feed in mm/revs for general lathe tools. These tools work at different diameters of the
workpiece. The speed of the work spindle changes due to the constant cutting speed at the tool tip. The
feed per revolution, however, remains the same.

Example: G95 F0.25 F [mm/revs]

M codes (auxiliary functions))

M codes are characterised as auxiliary functions, with whose help the greatest range of machine actions
can be triggered. M functions are standardised to some extent and are hence the same in all CNC machine
tools. There are also free M functions, which are used differently by each machine manufacturer. Please pay
particular attention here to the operating instructions of the machine manufacturer. The most important M
functions are listed below:

M00 = Program stop unconditional

M01 = Program stop optional
M03 = Work spindle ON, clockwise
M04 = Work spindle ON, anticlockwise
M05 = Work spindle STOP
M07 = Coolant 1 ON
M08 = Coolant 2 ON
M09 = Coolant OFF
M30 = Program end with resetting to program start
M98 = Subprogram call-up
23
 6. ISO programming

“Manual Guide i ” program and G codes

A program created by “Manual Guide i” is displayed in the following illustrations:

On the left, the entire program for the

previous example “workpiece contour”,
with the contour roughing and finishing.

The actual workpiece contour is saved as

subprogram no. 71. In this way the contour
description data can be used for roughing
and finishing.

Only the sentences marked in yellow are entered in ISO code. They have the following meaning:

G92 S4000: Programmable speed limitation (G92) to a max. (S) 4000 rpm.

G0 X200 Z200 T0202: Rapid feed (G0) of the axes X and Z to X200 Z200, change position and tool
function no. 2 with tool offset no. 2 (T0202).

G96 S100 M4: Constant cutting speed (G96) (S) 100 m/min and spindle ON in an anticlock-
wise direction(M4).

G0 X200 Z200 T0: Rapid feed (G0) of the axes X and Z to X200 Z200 and delete tool offset no. 2
(T0202).

M30: Program end and reset program to start.

These blocks are repeated practically in every program, tool replacement is even repeated several times.
At the most, it is the tool number, speed and cutting speed that change. These entries are thereby
optimally suited to be stored as a template whereby they can be called up as required, at the press of a
key, from the start menu.

24
7. Tools and offsetting

Tool offset allows you to program workpieces without having to take into conside-
ration differing tool dimensions.

The tool offset usually refers to a reference tool that was used to determine the
workpiece zero point.

Tool memoryr
The CNC controller has a tool memory which contains various tool-related data. The memory contains
data on the type and shape of the tool as well as offset for the X and Z axes, radius and virtual tip positi-
on. Below you will see tools for general turning, threading, grooving as well as tools for contour turning:

If the machine is equipped with the so-called powered tools for drilling and milling
then the tools for these operating modes are also available.

The adjacent tool list contains the offset for

the X and Z axes, the radius and virtual tip
position

as well as the tool shape and type.

25
 7. Tools and offsetting

The mounting position of the

toolas well as the geometric
values for the tool angle for
general tools, the width and
possible grooving depth in the
case of grooving tools, the dia-
meter and tip angle of drill bits
etc.

Press soft key “T-ofs” to enable the tool function

8. Programming examples

Creating a MANUAL GUIDE i program

A Manual Guide i program is created in the following steps. You must pay particular attention to the correct
approaching of the cycle start point and returning to a defined withdrawal point.

1) Blank part definition (only if a program simulation is required)

2) Approaching the tool indexing point

3) Tool selection

4) Inserting the required G and F functions (e.g. spindle ON, speed, coolant, feed)

5) Approaching the cycle start point

6) Cycle: Cutting conditions (e.g. turning, drilling, thread cutting, grooving)

7) Cycle: Figure information (several figures e.g. drilling figures can be programmed after a cycle)

8) Moving to a defined withdrawal point

9) Repeating steps 2 to 8, to add additional machining processes

10) Program end, enter the required M and G functions

NOTE:
Activities described at point 5 can be executed in advance (between points 2 and 4) according to the operator
needs.
