01.93 1 General Notes

1 General Notes

A numerically controlled machine tool functions according to the instructions it receives from
the numerical control. In order to carry out the necessary machining operations, the control
requires certain information, such as:

• Workpiece dimensions
• Travel of tool and axis slides
• Machining sequence
• Tool selection
• Speeds
• Feedrates

The program sorts this information into the necessary sequence and translates it into a
language which can be readily understood by the SINUMERIK.
This Programming Guide describes the programming possibilities for the SINUMERIK 880 and
the standard range of functions of the system. The maximum values specified are limit values.
During operation they may be restricted by the machine data, interface unit and input/output
devices.

2.3 Block elements

2.3 Block elements

2.3.1 Main blocks and subblocks

There are two types of block: Main blocks and subblocks.

The main block must contain all words required to start the machining cycle in the program
section beginning there. A main block may only be located in the part program (main program).
A main block is identified by means of the character “:”.
A subblock is identified by means of the character ”N”.
If a block is given a block number, this follows immediately after the ":" or "N" character. The
main blocks and subblocks must be identified by different numbers.
A subblock contains only those functions which differ from the functions in the previous block.
Example main block: :10 G01 X10 Y–15 F200 S900 M03 LF
Example subblock: N15 Y20 LF
A program section comprises one main block and several subblocks, e.g.:
:10 G01 X10 Y-15 F200 LF (Main block)
N20 Y35 LF (1st subblock)
N30 X20 Y40 LF (2nd subblock)
N40 Y–10 LF (3rd subblock etc.)

2.6 Tapes

2.6.1 Tape reader

The tape reader must be matched to the control. The data transfer rate and transfer format
(see universal interface) are defined via the setting data.

2.6.2 Tape code

The data on tape are coded according to fixed rules, i.e. a hole combination corresponds to a
particular character. Two tape codes are used: ISO or EIA (see code table).
All characters of a code have a common identification:

• ISO always even number of holes

• EIA always odd number of holes

The control automatically recognizes the correct code as soon as it reads the first % (ISO) or
EOR (EIA). The criterion relating to an odd or even number of holes is used, starting at the
second character of the program, for a character parity check, which has an error detection
rate for single errors of 100%. Each tape must be written in one of the permissible codes. It is
not permissible to change the code within a tape or to splice tapes with different codes; this
will cause the character parity check to respond.

As a further check a complete program comparison is performed if a program already stored in

the program memory is read in again. On detection of an error the read-in process is halted
and the error displayed on the operator panel of the control.

2.6.3 Leader
The leader is used to identify the programs. The tape leader can include all characters except
the start-of-program character (%). The leader is not stored, and is ignored by the control
during program processing.

2.9 Channel-specific programming

2.9 Channel-specific programming

The NC area of the SINUMERIK 880 control is broken down into several channels.
Each channel has its own block preparation feature, which combines data from the part pro-
gram with NC data such as zero offsets, tool offsets etc. and transfers it to the interpolator via
a buffer memory.
The NC area is divided into different channels. These NC channels are combined to form
mode groups. Channel assignment to these groups is specified by machine data. Depending
on the workpiece involved, machining programs can be generated for all channels and these
are entered into the central NC program memory.
SINUMERIK 880, SW 6 can be divided into a maximum of 16 channels.
SINUMERIK 880 GA2, SW 1 can be divided into a maximum of 8 channels chosen from 1 to
16. The following channels can be activated, for example:
• Channels 1 to 8
• Channels 5 to 12
• Channels 9 to 16
• Channels 1, 4, 7, 9, 10, 14, 15, 16
The basic versions of SINUMERIK 880, SW 6, and SINUMERIK 880 GA2, SW 1, comprise 4
channels.

Example: Double-slide single-spindle lathe with milling attachment

Channel structure: Programmable allocation of channels

A mode group contains those channels that, due to the operational sequence, must always
work simultaneously in the same mode. Within the mode group, any axis can be programmed
in any channel. In the above example, the loader has been assigned an own mode group. This
assignment permits Setting-up operation of the loader while workpieces are being
produced.
In addition to the 5 channels in which the programs for controlling the working units are run, 3
channels are reserved to be able to include future add-ons such as automatic tool retraction
in the case of tool breakage or coordination programs.
In the AUTOMATIC basic display, each channel is given its program number.
The channel structure allows the programs of the various channels to be processed
simultaneously and asynchronously. If synchronization is required it can be performed via the
PLC.
In each mode group as many axes can be traversed simultaneously in Jog mode as there are
channels for the mode group.

05.91 3 Directions of Movement, Dimensioning
3.2 Position data, preparatory functions

3.2 Position data, preparatory functions

The position data comprises an axis address and a numerical value, which describes the path
on the addressed axis. If a sign is specified, it is written between the address and the
numerical value.
In order to start the positioning procedure, the position data must be supplemented by the
preparatory function (G function) and the feedrate (F) data. The preparatory functions describe
the type of machine movements, the type of interpolation and the method of dimensioning.
The G functions are divided into groups (see program key). A program block may contain only
one function from each group (exception: G90/G91).
The G functions are either modal (stored) or effective for a single block. The G functions
which remain active until they are replaced by a new G function in the same group are said to
be modally active. The G functions which are only active in the block in which they are
contained are said to be active block-by-block.
The resets take effect after powering up the control, and after reset or program end. They
need not be programmed.

3.3 Dimension systems: absolute and incremental position data

G90/G91
The traversing movement to a particular point in the coordinate system can be described by
means of absolute or incremental position data. A ”zero offset” is allowed for in both absolute
and incremental programming.

Absolute position data input G90

If absolute position data input is selected, all dimensional inputs refer to a fixed zero, which is
normally the workpiece zero. The numerical value of the associated position data specifies the
target position in the coordinate system.

Example:
The tool is at position (P1) X = 20, Y = 10 and is to move to position (P2) X = 60, Y = 30.
The input is:
G90 X60 Y30
The tool moves to the programmed target position irrespective of its current position.

3.3 Dimension systems: absolute and incremental position data G90/G91

Incremental position data input G91

In the case of incremental data input, the numerical value corresponds to the path to be
traversed. The sign indicates the direction of movement.

Example:
The tool is at position (P1) X = 20, Y = 10 and is to move to position (P2) X = 60, Y = 30.
The input is:
G91 X40 Y20
The tool moves on by the distance specified by the programmed values with reference to its
current position.

• G 200
• @ 720
• Selection and deselection of a transformation (also coordinate rotation)

3.5 Zero offset G54...G59

The sum of the zero offsets results from:

Settable zero offset (G54 ... G57) + external zero offset (from PLC) + programmable zero
offset (G58, G59).

Settable zero offset G54, G55, G56, G57

The settable zero offset values for each axis can be entered in the control via the operator
panel or via the universal interface.
The values are calculated in absolute and incremental position data blocks for the block end
point if the relevant axis is programmed.
With G54 to G57, one of the four settable zero offsets, each with two settings, can be selected
for the individual axis. The settable ZOs are divided into coarse and fine ZOs which act addi-
tively.
The zero offset fine setting is used as an additional fine adjustment (compensation) of the zero
point.

3.6 Path calculation

3.6 Path calculation

The path calculation determines the distance to be travelled within a block, taking all offsets
and compensations into consideration.
The formula is generally as follows:
Path = setpoint - actual value + zero offset (ZO) + tool offset (TO).

Actual value 2

Path calculation using absolute position data input

If incremental position data input is used, the zero offset is incorporated normally in the first
block.
Path = incremental position data + ZO + TO
If a new zero offset and a new tool offset are programmed in a new program block, the formula
is as follows:
With absolute position data input
Path = absolute position data P2 - absolute position data P1 + ZOP2 - ZOP1 +TOP2 -
TOP1
With incremental position data input
Path = incremental position data + ZOP2 - ZOP1 +TOP2 - TOP1.
