Abstract
This report discusses the configuration of some preparatory and auxiliary commands for the Fanuc 18i TB CNC system for a counter-spindle lathe using special macros called Vericut macros. In most cases, this is necessary because the Vericut library of machines and CNC systems does not have the specific machine and system or do not correspond to the actual ones, i. e. there is no match between them. The need to configure the CNC control system is related to the fact that it is possible to perform simulation, optimization and verification of control programs in a virtual environment before proceeding to the processing of workpieces on the real machine.
Highlights
To reduce the risks associated with the defect of the workpiece and reduce the cost of the final product, products are used in which this check can be performed in a virtual environment
VERICUT [1] is a product of high grade, that allows for verification and optimization of the tool path, checking for collisions, the simulation of cutting processes
When verifying the tool path, a real machine, tools, holders, workpiece are used, and the simulation is by taking material in a virtual environment
Summary
To reduce the risks associated with the defect of the workpiece and reduce the cost of the final product, products are used in which this check can be performed in a virtual environment. An evaluation of the result is performed, after which, based on the obtained result, in some cases optimization is required Such products are VERICUT, NCSIMUL and others. VERICUT [1] is a product of high grade, that allows for verification and optimization of the tool path, checking for collisions, the simulation of cutting processes. All these possibilities are available for milling, turning, laser, wire erosion discharge machines, turning centers, multi-task machines and robots. When verifying the tool path, a real machine, tools, holders, workpiece are used, and the simulation is by taking material in a virtual environment. Both the generated driver from the CAM package and the CL data file can be used to simulate the process
