0 ... Maximum acceleration, application-specific

Dimension

mm/min² or mm/s² *

Default value

P-CHAN-00009

Reduction of tangential transition velocity between circles

Description

Tangential block transitions between circles with different radii and circles and linear blocks and vice versa lead to a jerk depending on circle radius. A jerk produced by activating this function can be reduced in order to reduce the excitation of vibrations on the machine when non-linear velocity profiles are active. At tangential block transitions, the speed is reduced dependent on the permissible jerk. The calculation is based on axis-specific jerk parameters for non-linear speed profiles (see also [AXIS] documentation).

On the other hand, the reduction of speed at tangential block transitions is not acceptable with specific machining technologies since the machining process has a very sensitive reaction to a reduction in velocity.

Parameter

corr_v_trans_jerk

Data type

BOOLEAN

Data range

0: No inclusion of jerk at tangential block transitions.

1: Inclusion of jerk at tangential block transitions.

P-CHAN-00066

Influence of override on feed

Description

This parameter defines how feed is calculated in conjunction with path feed override.

This means, for example, the parameter sets whether the override bandwidth is applied to the programmed feed or to the minimum programmed feed and the maximum permissible feed in the block (vmax). The CNC calculates the feed based on the permissible axis dynamics.

The following velocities have an influence:

vmax: Calculated maximum velocity of the CNC with no consideration given to reduced velocity

vred: Calculated reduced velocity of the CNC, taken from vb_max_red (P-AXIS-00214) of the axes

vprog: programmed velocity of the operator (F word)

 

Value 0 for P-CHAN-00066:

v = MIN (vprog,vmax) * Override

If this parameter is set to 0, a change of override always leads to a change of velocity in the machine (linear correlation).

Value 1 for P-CHAN-00066:

v = MIN (vprog* Override, vmax)

If this parameter is set to 1, the override always refers to the programmed feed. If the maximum feed in the block is smaller than the programmed feed multiplied by the current override, the current path feed is not changed when there is a change in override.

Value 2 for P-CHAN-00066:

Calculation is executed

  • as for the value 0 provided there are no active functions that reduce velocity. For example, REDUCED_SPEED, REDUCED_SPEED_ZONE, IPO_ACTIVATE_TCP_VEL_LIMIT
  • as for the value 1 provided there are no active functions that reduce velocity

 

If velocity drops are not desired for technological reasons, this parameter must be set to 1.

Parameter

override_weight_prog_feed

Data type

UNS16

Data range

0: Change in override causes a change of velocity.

1: An override change only causes a velocity change if the programmed
feed * override < maximum permissible velocity in the block

2: Override effect in conjunction with reduced velocity (available as of Build V3.1.3079.42)

Dimension

----

Default value

0

Remarks

Example of values:

vmax:      50m/min

vprog:     80m/min

vred:     5m/min

Override: 50%

 

P-CHAN-00066=0

a) active reduced velocity vset = 2.5m/min

b) inactive reduced velocity vset = 25m/min

 

P-CHAN-00066=1

a) active reduced velocity vset = 5m/min

b) inactive reduced velocity vset = 40m/min

 

P-CHAN-00066=2

a) active reduced velocity vset = 5m/min

b) inactive reduced velocity vset = 25m/min

P-CHAN-00071

Default acceleration profile at program start

Description

Default value for the selected acceleration profile type with path motions and oscillating axis motions.

Parameter

prog_start.slope.profile

Data type

SGN16

Data range

0: Step-shaped acceleration profile, (default, linear profile)

1: Trapezoidal acceleration profile

2: Sine-square acceleration profile

3: Trapezoidal HSC acceleration profile (across blocks)

Dimension

----

Default value

0

Remarks

The acceleration profile and the associated acceleration and ramp time weighting can be programmed in the NC program with the #SLOPE [TYPE..] command [PROG].

The maximum of the weighted ramp times P-AXIS-00195 is always effective with the trapezoidal HSC acceleration profile. P-AXIS-00198.

For every independent axis, the acceleration profile can also be programmed specifically in the NC command with the key word SLOPE_TYPE [PROG].

If no change is made to the parameter values by NC programming, this value limits path velocity after it is activated in the NC program.

Parameter

Data range

0 ... Maximum acceleration, application-specific

Dimension

P-CHAN-00239

Automatic insertion of polynomials on internal B spline deselection

Description

This parameter automatically selects polynomial contouring (G261, #CONTOUR MODE [...]) when the B spline is deselected internally. The B spline #HSC[BSPLINE PATH_DEV=X TRACK_DEV=Y] then adopts the following parameters for polynomial contouring:

#CONTOUR MODE[
                         DEV
                         PATH_DEV=X
                         TRACK_DEV=Y
                         RELEVANT_PATH=X
                         RELEVANT_TRACK=Y ]

The exact response of the parameters is described in[PROG//section Polynomial contouring (G260/G261)].

Parameter

hsc.bspline.auto_contour_mode

Data type

UNS32

Data range

0: Deactivated (default)

1: General insertion of smoothing polynomial if B spline is internally deselected.

2: Insert smoothing polynomial on linear-circular, circular-circular and circular-linear transitions (recommended mode).

P-CHAN-00605

Conditional enable of the functionalities

Description

This parameter can be used to configure functions of the CNC that are activated in the channel depending on the program start mode.

 

Several settings can be predefined for activation as soon as an NC program is started in the machining mode listed under the condition P-CHAN-00606 .

Parameter

configuration.path_preparation.fct_enable[<idx>] where idx 0, 1

Data type

STRING

Data range

See Path preparation function table

Dimension

----

Default value

FCT_DEFAULT

Remarks

Parameter is available as of the following Builds: V2.11.2040.04 ; V2.11.2810.02 ; V3.1.3079.17 ; V3.1.3107.10

If no individual machining mode is set at the start of the program, this corresponds to the setting ISG_STANDARD.

The default settings under index 0 ("fct_enable[0]") are used.

For reasons of backward compatibility, P-CHAN-00605 "fct_enable[0]" corresponds to the previous parameter "function" P-CHAN-00600.

Both notations or parameters can be used alternatively.
