Swivel heads and tables are employed to create or machine oblique surfaces.
Display MD 9723 $MM_CMM_ENABLE_SWIVELLING_HEAD is set to enable
the swiveling function.
You must set up a swivel data set for every swivel head, swivel table or combination
of both.
You can define swivel data sets using softkey ”Swivel cycle” in the ”Start-up”
operating area on the CNC-ISO operator interface. For further details, see:
References: /PGZ/, Programming Guide Cycles.
When the swivel head/table is set manually, alarms displaying the required angle
are output:
62180 Set both axes manually
62181 Set one axis manually
With a Hirth tooth system, the corresponding rotary axes can only assume certain
positions (angle grid > 0). If the programming demands a position that deviates
from the angle grid, the machine automatically sets the next closest position
and outputs an alarm.
112328 Angle adjusted to angle grid
How the alarm must be acknowledged can be set in swivel cycle TOOLCARR.
An alarm is output if the swivel head/table must be set to an angle outside the
permissible angular range in order to machine the workpiece:
61184 Machining not possible with current angle values
The programmed machining operation cannot be performed with the existing
swivel head/table.
ShopMill generates one of the following alarms when you manually load/unload
or replace swivel heads:
112323 Unload swivel head
112324 Load swivel head
112325 Replace swivel head
When swivel heads are loaded/unloaded or replaced, the swivel head cycle
TOOLCARR is also called.
