Milling 1

The document describes how to write a CNC program for a milling operation and simulate it on a Sinumerik 808D MCU. The objectives are to learn G and M codes for part programming and how to operate the MCU. It explains the milling process and provides the procedure for writing the program using codes like G90, G42, G00, and G01. The program is then executed and simulated on the MCU to generate the milling operation and understand how it works.

MILLING

AIM: To write the CNC program for milling operation and simulate it on sinumerik 808D
MCU.

OBJECTIVE:
❖ To know how to use G codes and M codes in part programming.
❖ To know how to operate the MCU of the CNC machine.
❖ To know how to write a CNC program for given operation and specimen.
❖ To know how to select and create a new tool for CNC operation.

INTRODUCTION:
Milling: Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material by
advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying direction on one or several
axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. It is a process performed with a machine in which the
cutters rotate to remove the material from the work piece present in the direction of the angle
with the tool axis.

PROCEDURE:
• In Sinumerik 808D, click start button to start machine or create a new template or
machine for the required operation.
• After creating it, click the start button.
• Select Reference button, press x and z buttons to the machine reference point
i.e., to bring machine to zero position.
• Now keep some feed and spindle speed on the machine by using the knob.
• Now select the JOG mode for next operation and click on offset, select the existing
tool or create a new tool with required dimension and number it and press input.
• Now select T, S, M button and give the required tool change number, spindle speed in
rpm and spindle rotation by using select button.
• After entering all the T, S, M details press the cycle start button to change the tool.
• Now, select meas tool and give the work piece dimensions like x and z dimensions
and press input.
• Now click on program manager and select new to create a file with the required name
in MPF format.
• Then select the file and press input and the file gets opened and write the program for
the operation there. Write the part program using different G and M codes.
• T- Tool number designation, x and z are used to give coordinates.
• After that execute the program, click on auto and simulate to show the operation. The
material has to be given to show the actual material removal stock.
• For this, in execution window – more- material removal-diameter-length of work
piece – ok.
• Press simulation and press cycle start to generate the simulation of the given
operation.

Different codes used in the program:


G90 -Absolute coordinate system.
G42 – Tool radius compensation right of contour.
G00 -Linear interpolation at rapid traverse rate.
G01 – Linear interpolation at feed rate.
G03 -Circular interpolation -CCW
G40 – Tool radius Compensation off.
G94 – Feed in mm/min.
M04-Spindle reverse rotation.
M05-Spindle stop.
M06-Tool change.
M02-Program end.

Conclusion:
Hence the program for milling is written by using different G and M codes and executed it on
sinumerik MCU. The real simulation is also generated by using it and understood the
working of it. Also learnt about the significance of G and M Codes in the part program.
