1.2 CNC SYSTEMS of MACHINE TOOLS and CNC MACHINE TOOLS

CNC machine tool is an electro-mechanical integrated product, composed of Numerical Control Systems of
Machine Tools, machines, electric control components, hydraulic components, pneumatic components,
lubricant, coolant and other subsystems (components), and CNC systems of machine tools are control cores of
CNC machine tools. CNC systems of machine tools are made up of computerized numerical control(CNC),
servo (stepper) motor drive devices, servo (or stepper) motor and etc.
Operational principles of CNC machine tools: according to requirements of machining technology, edit user
programs and input them to CNC, then CNC outputs motion control instructions to the servo (stepper) motor
drive devices, and last the servo (or stepper) motor completes the cutting feed of machine tool by mechanical
driving device; logic control instructions in user programs to control spindle start/stop, tool selections, coolant
ON/OFF, lubricant ON/OFF are output to electric control systems of machine tools from CNC, and then the
electric control systems control output components including buttons, switches, indicators, relays, contactors
and so on. Presently, the electric control systems are employed with Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
with characteristics of compact, convenience and high reliance. Thereof, the motion control systems and logic
control systems are the main of CNC machine tools
GSK980TD Turning Machine CNC system has simultaneously motion control and logic control function to
control two axes of CNC machine tool to move, and has embedded PLC function. Edit PLC programs (ladder
diagram) according to requirements of input and output control of machine tool and then download them to
GSK980TD Turning Machine CNC system, which realizes electric control requirements of required machine
-6
tool, is convenient to electric design of machine tool and reduces lost of CNC machine tool.
Software used for controlling GSK980TD Turning Machine CNC system is divided into system software (NC

for short) and PLC software (PLC for short). NC system is used for controlling display, communication, edit,
decoding, interpolation and acceleration/deceleration, and PLC system for controlling explanations, executions,
inputs and outputs of ladder diagrams.
Standard PLC programs are loaded(except for the special order) when GSK980TD Turning Machine CNC
System is delivered, concerned PLC control functions in following functions and operations are described
according to control logics of standard PLC programs, marking with Standard PLC functions in GSK980TD
Turning Machine CNC System User Manual. Refer to Operation Manual from machine manufacturer about
functions and operations of PLC control because the machine manufacturer may modify or edit PLC programs
again.

1.3 PROGRAMMING FUNDAMENTALS

1.3.1 Coordinates Definition
Sketch map of CNC turning machine is as follows:
Fig. 1-3
The system is employed with a rectangular coordinate system composed of X, Z axis. X axis is perpendicular
with axes of spindle and Z axis is parallel with axes of spindle; negative directions of them approach to the
workpiece and positive ones are away from it.
There are a front toolpost and a rear toolpost of NC turning machine according to their relative position between
the toolpost and the spindle, Fig. 1-4 is a coordinate system of the front toolpost and Fig. 1-5 is a rear toolppost
one. It shows exactly the opposite direction in X direction but the same direction in Z direction from figures. In
the manual, it will introduce programming application employed with the front toolpost coordinate system in
following figures and examples.

1.3.2 Machine Coordinate System and Machine Reference Point
Machine tool coordinate system is a benchmark one used for CNC counting coordinates and a fixed one on the
Book
machine tool. Machine tool origin is named machine reference point or machine zero. The position of
k 1 Programming Fundamentals
machine reference point is specified by a reference point return switch on the machine tool. Usually, the
reference point return switch is installed on max. stroke in X, Z positive direction. The system considers the
current coordinates of machine tool as zeroes and sets the machine tool coordinate system according to the
current position as the coordinate origin after having executed the machine reference point return.
Note: Do not execute the machine reference point return without the reference point switch installed on the
machine tool.
1.3.3
1.3.3 Workpiece Coordinate System and Program Reference Point
Workpiece coordinate system is set to a rectangular coordinate system according to part drawings named
floating coordinate system. After the workpiece is clamped on the machine tool, G50 is executed to set an
absolute coordinates of tools current position according to the relative position of tool and workpiece, and so
the workpiece system has been created. The current position of tool is named program reference point and the
tool returns to the position after executing the program reference point return. Usually, Z axis is consistent with
the axes of spindle and X axis is placed on the heading or the ending of workpiece. The workpiece will be valid
until it is replaced by a new one.
The current position of workpiece coordinate system set by G50 is named the program reference point and the
system returns to it after executing the program reference point return.
Note: Do not execute the machine reference point return without using G50 to set the workpiece coordinate
system after power on.

A point in X1O1Z1 coordinate system: (x1,z1)
A point in X2O2Z2 coordinate system: (x2,z2)
1.3.4 Interpolation Function

Interpolation is defined as a planar or three dimensional contour formed by path of 2 or multiple axes moving
at the same time, also called Contour control. The controlled moving axis is called link axis when the
interpolation is executed. The moving distance, direction and speed of it are controlled synchronously in the
course of running to form the required complex motion path. Fixed point control is defined that the motion path
in the course of running are not controlled but end point of one axis or multiple axes moving.
X and Z in the system are link axes and 2 axes link CNC system. The system possesses linear, circular and thread
interpolation function.
Linear interpolation: Complex motion path in X, Z direction is a straight line from starting point to end point.
Circular interpolation: Complex motion path in X, Z direction is arc radius defined by R or the circle center (I, K)
from starting point to end point.
Thread interpolation: Moving distance in X or Z direction or X and Z direction is defined by rotation angle of
spindle to form spiral cutting path on the workpiece surface to realize the thread cutting.
For thread interpolation, the feed axis rotates along with the spindle, the long axis moves
one pitch when the spindle rotates one rev, and the short axis and the long axis directly
interpolate.

1.3.5 Absolute Programming and Incremental Programming
Specify coordinate values of paths end point or target position in programming and there are 3 kinds of
programming method according to coordinate values in programming: absolute programming, incremental
programming and compound programming
Absolute coordinate value to programpresent with X, Z in X, Z direction is absolute programming;

Incremental movement to program present with U, Win X, Z direction is incremental programming;
In the system, X,Z axis is separately employed with absolute programming and incremental program, which is

1.3.6 Diameter and Radius Programming

Diameter programming: when NO.001 Bit2 is 0, input instruction value in diameter in X direction and
coordinate in X direction is in diameter at the moment;
Radius programming: when NO.001 Bit2 is 1, input instruction value in diameter in X direction and coordinate
in X direction is diameter at the moment

1.4 STRUCTURE of an NC PROGRAM
User needs to compile part programs (called program) according to instruction formats of CNC system. CNC
system executes programs to control the machine tool movement, the spindle starting/stopping, the coolant and
the lubricant ON/OFF to complete the machine of workpiece.
Program example:

Block
A block which is basic unit of CNC program consists of a sequence of words, ending with ; or * . There is
the character ; or * between blocks. ; is employed to separate blocks in the manual as follows:
/ N0030 G0 X20 Z30
Ending character of block
Block number
Jumping character of block
One block may be with a number of words or only with(ending character) instead of words. There must be
one or more blank space between words.
There is only one for other addresses except for N, G, S, T, H, L in one block, otherwise the system alarms. The
last word in the same address is valid when there are more N, G, S, T, H, L in the same block. The last G
instruction is valid when there are more G instructions which are in the same group in one block.
-16
Block number
A block number consists of an address N and its following 4-bit digit as N0000N9999,and the leading zero

can be omitted. The block number must be at the beginning of block, otherwise the block is invalid.
The block number can be omitted, but there must be the block number when the program calls/jumps the target
block. The increment of block number is at will and it better to increase or decrease the sequence of block
number in order to conveniently search and analyze programs.
When Block number is set to ON, block numbers will be automatically created incrementally and their
increment is defined by 42.
Block jumping character

Insert / in the front of block and startup when some block cannot be executed (cannot be deleted),
and the system jumps the block and executes the next one. The block with / in the front of it will be executed

if is not started.
Ending character of program

% is an ending character of program. % is a mark of communication ended when the program is
transmitted. The system will automatically insert at the end of program.
Program annotation
A program annotation has less than 20 characters (10 Chinese characters) for each program, lies in a bracket
following its program name and is expressed only in English and digitals in CNC system; it can be edit in
Chinese in PC and displayed in Chinese in CNC system after being downloaded.
1.4.2 Main Program and Subprogram

To simply the programming, when the same or similar machining path and control procedure is used many times,
its program instructions are edited to a sole program to call. The main program is defined to call others and the
subprogram is to be called. They both take up the program capacity and storage space of system. The
subprogram has own name, and can be called at will by the main program and also can run separately. The
system returns to the main program to continue when the subprogram ends as follows:

1.5 PROGRAM RUN
1.5.1 Sequence of Program Run

Open the current program in Auto mode. The system only open one program, and so only one run any time.
When opening the first block, the cursor located in the heading of the first block and can be moved in Edit mode.
The program stops in Auto mode and starts run after the cycle start signal is pressed or external cycle
start signalstartups the program to run from a block pointed by current cursor, usually blocks are executed one
by one according to programming sequence, the program stops run after executing M02 or M30. The cursor
moves along with program and is located at the heading of current block. Sequence and state of program run are
changed in the followings:
The program stops run after pressing or emergent stop button;

The program stops run when the system or PLC alarms;
Single block stops run (the current block pauses after it runs completely) in Edit, MDI mode, and then a
block pointed by the current cursor starts run after the system switches
into Auto mode, is pressed or external cycle start signal is switched on;
The program stops run in Manual(Jog), Handwheel(MPG), Single Block, Program Reference Point Return,
Machine Reference Point Return mode and it continuously runs from current position after the system is
switched into Auto mode and is pressed or the external cycle start signal is switched on;
The program pauses after pressing or the external cycle start signal is switched off, and it
continuously runs from current position after pressing or the external cycle start signal is switched
on;
When Single Block is ON, the program pauses after every block is executed completelyand then it
continuously runs from the next block after is pressed or the external cycle start signal is
switched on;
-18
Block with / in the front of it is not executed when the block jumping switch is ON;
The system jumps to the target block to run after executing G65;

Please see Section Three G Instructions about execution sequence of G70~73;
Call corresponding subprograms or macro program to run when executing M98 or M9000~M9999; the
system returns to main program to call the next block when executing M99(if M99 specifies a target block
number, the system returns to it to run) after the subprograms or macro programs run completely;
The system return to the first block to run and the current program is executed repetitively when M99 is
executed in a main program.
1.5.2 Execution Sequence of Word

There are many words(G, X, Z, F, R, M, S, T and so on ) and most of M, S, T is transmitted to PLC by NC
explanation and others is directly executed by NC. M98, M99, M9000M9999, S word for specifying spindle
speed (rev/min, m/min) is directly executed by NC.
NC firstly executes G and then M instructions( without transmitting M signal to PLC) when G instructions and
M98, M99, M9000M9999 are in the same block.
When G instructions and M, S, T executed by PLC are in the same block, PLC defines M, S, T and G to be
executed simultaneously, or execute M, S ,T after G instructions. Please see User Manual of machine
manufacturer for execution sequence of instructions.
Execution sequence of G, M, S, T in the same block defined by GSK980TD standard PLC program is as follows:
M3, M4, M8, M10, M12, M32, M41, M42 ,M43,M44,S, T and G instructions are executed
simultaneously;
M5, M9, M11, M13, M33 after G instructions are executed;
M00, M02, M30 after other instructions of current block are executed.

2.2 SPINDLE FUNCTIONS FUNCTION
S instruction is used for controlling spindle speed and there are two methods to control that of GSK980TD:
Spindle speed switching value control: S2-bit digits instruction valueis executed by PLC, and PLC
outputs switching value signal to machine tool to change spindle speed with grades
Spindle speed analog voltage control: S4-bit digits instruction valuespecifies actual speed of
spindle and NC outputs 0~10V analog voltage signal to spindle servo or inverter to realize stepless spindle
speed
2.2.1 Spindle Speed Switching Value Control

Spindle speed is controlled by switching value when NO.001 BIT4 is set to 0. There is only one S instruction in
a block, otherwise the system alarms.
Their executing sequence is defined by PLC when S instruction and word for moving function are in the same
block. Please refer to User Manual from machine manufacturer.
When spindle speed is control led by switching value, GSK980TD Turning CNC system is used for machine
tool and the time sequence and logic of executing S instruction is according to User Manual from machine
manufacturer. Refer to S instruction defined by standard PLC of GSK980TD as follows:
Instruction format S
0004the leading zero can be omittedNo.14 gear of spindle
speed is controlled by switching value.
In spindle speed switching value control mode, after S signal transmits to PLC, the system dwells time defined
by NO.081, then return FIN signal, and the dwell time is called runtime of S instruction.

Start to execute the following
word or block
S01, S02, S03, S04 output are reserved when resetting CNC.
S1S4 output are invalid when CNC is switched on. The corresponding S signal output is valid and reserved,
and others are cancelled at the same time when executing one of S01, S02, S03, S04. When executing S00, S1
S4 output are cancelled and only one of S1S4 is valid at the same time.

2.2.2 Spindle Speed Analog Voltage Control
Book
Spindle speed is controlled by analog voltage when NO.001 BIT4 is set to 1.
Instruction formatS OOOO
00009999the leading zero can be omitted.Spindle speed
analog voltage control
Instruction function: the spindle speed is defined, and the system outputs 010V analog voltage to control
spindle servo or inverter to realize the stepless timing. S instruction value is not reserved,
and it is 0 after the system is switched on.
When the spindle speed analog voltage control is valid, there are 2 methods to input the spindle speed: the
spindle fixed speed is defined by S instruction( rev/min), and is invariant without changing S instruction value,
which is called constant speed control(G97 modal); other is the tangent speed of tool relative to the outer circle
of workpiece defined by S instruction, which is called constant surface speed control (G96 modal), and the
spindle speed is changed along with the absolute coordinates value of X absolute coordinates in programming
path when cutting feed is executed in the constant surface speed. Please refer to Section 2.2.3.
The system can execute 4 gears spindle speed. Count the analog voltage value corresponding to the specified
speed according to setting value(corresponding to NO.037NO.040) of max. spindle speed (analog voltage is
10V)of current gear, and then output to spindle servo or inverter to ensure that the spindle actual speed and the
requirement are the same.
After the system is switched on, the analog output voltage is 0V. The analog output voltage is reserved (except
that the system is in cutting feed in the surface speed control mode and the absolute value of X absolute
coordinates is changed) after S instruction is executed. The analog output voltage is 0V after S0 is executed. The
analog output voltage is reserved when the system resets and emergently stops.
Parameters relative to the analog voltage control of spindle speed:
System parameter NO.21: offset value of output voltage with max. spindle speed (the analog output voltage is
10V);
System parameter NO.36: offset value of output voltage with spindle speed 0 (the analog output
voltage is 10V);
System parameter NO.037NO.040: max. spindle speed (the analog output voltage is 10V) with spindle 14
gears.
2.2.3 Constant Surface Speed Control G96, Constant Rotational Speed Control G97
Instruction formatG96 S__S0000S9999the leading zero can be omitted.
Instruction functionthe constant surface speed control is valid, the cutting surface speed is defined (m/min)
and the constant rotational speed control is cancelled. G96 is modal G instruction. If the
current modal is G96, G96 cannot be input.
Instruction functionthe constant surface speed control is cancelled, the constant rotational speed control is
-7
valid and the spindle speed is defined(rev/min). G96 is modal G instruction. If the
current modal is G97, G97 cannot be input.
Book

Instruction function: define max. spindle speed limit (rev/min) in the constant surface speed control and take
the current position as the program reference point.

G96, G97 are the modal word in the same group but one of them is valid. G97 is the initial word and the
system defaults G97 is valid when the system is switched on.
When the machine tool is turning it, the workpiece rotates based on the axes of spindle as the center line, the
cutting point of tool cutting workpiece is a circle motion around the axes, and the instantaneous speed in the
circle tangent direction is called cutting surface(for short surface speed). There are different surface speed
for the different workpeice and tool with different material.
When the spindle speed controlled by the analog voltage is valid, the constant surface control is valid. The
spindle speed is changed along with the absolute value of X absolute coordinates of programming path in
the constant speed control. If the absolute value of X absolute coordinates adds, the spindle speed reduces, and
vice verse, which make the cutting surface speed as S instruction value. The constant speed control to cut the
workpiece makes sure all smooth finish on the surface of workpiece with diameter changing.

In G96, the spindle speed is changed along with the absolute value of X absolute coordinates value of
programming path in cutting feed (interpolation), but it is not changed in G00 because there is no actual cutting
and is counted based on the surface speed of end point in the program block.
In G96, Z coordinates axis of workpiece system must consist with the axes of spindle (rotary axis of workpiece),
otherwise, there is different between the actual surface speed and the defined one.
In G96, G50 S_ can limit max. spindle speed (rev/min). The spindle actual speed is the limit value of max. speed
when the spindle speed counted by the surface speed and X coordinates value is more than the max. spindle
speed set by G50 S_. After the system powers on, max. spindle speed limit value is not defined and its function
-8
is invalid. Max. spindle speed limit value defined by G50 S_ is reserved before it is defined again and its
function is valid in G96. Max. spindle speed defined by G50 S_ is invalid in G97 but its limit value is reserved.
Book
Note: In G96, the spindle speed is limited to 0 rev/min (the spindle does not rotate) if G50, S0 are executed; G50
S_ is executed to set max. spindle speed limit value of constant surface speed and also set the current
position to the program reference point at the same time, and the tool returns to the current position after
the program reference point return is executed.
When the constant surface speed is controlled by the system parameter NO.043, the spindle speed is lower limit,
which is higher than one counted by the surface speed and X axis coordinates value

2.2.4 Spindle Override
When the spindle speed analog voltage control is valid, the spindle actual speed can be tuned real time by the
spindle override and is limited by max spindle speed of current gear after the spindle override is tuned, and it
also limited by limited values of max. and min. spindle speed in constant surface speed control mode.
The system supplies 8 steps for spindle override 50%120% increment of 10%. The actual steps and tune
of spindle override are defined by PLC ladder and introductions from machine manufacturer is referred when
using it. Refer to the following functions of GSK980TD standard PLC ladder.
The spindle actual speed specified by GSK980TD standard PLC ladder can be tuned real time by the spindle
override tune key at 8 steps in 50%120% and it is not reserved when the spindle override is switched off.
Refer to the operations of spindle override in Operation.
2.3 TOOL FUNCTION T FUNCTION
T functions of GSK980TD: automatic tool change and executing tool offset. Control logic of automatic tool
change is executed by PLC and tool offset is executed by NC.
Instruction format
T
Tool offset number00-32the leading zero cannot be omitted
Target tool number01-32the leading zero cannot be omitted
Instruction function: The automatic toolpost rotates to the target tool number and the tool offset of tool offset
number commanded is executed. The tool offset number can be the same as the tool
number, and also cannot be the same as it, namely, one tool can corresponds to many tool
offset numbers. After executing tool offset and then T00, the system reversely offset
the current tool offset and the system its operation mode from the executed tool length
compensation into the non-compensation, which course is called the canceling tool offset,
called canceling tool compensation. When the system is switched on, the tool offset
number and the tool offset number displayed by T instruction is the state before the system
is switched off.
Only one T instruction is in a block, otherwise the system alarms.
Toolsetting is executed to gain the position offset data before machining (called tool offset), and the system
automatically executes the tool offset after executing T instruction when programs are running. Only edit
programs for each tool according to part drawing instead of relative position of each tool in the machine
-10
coordinate system. If there is error caused by the wearing of tool, directly modify the tool offset according to the
dimension offset.
Book
Fig. 2-4 Tool offset
The tool offset is used for the programming. The offset corresponding to the tool offset number in T instruction
is added or subtracted on the end point of each block. Tool offset in X direction in diameter or radius is set by
NO.004 Bit4. For tool offset in diameter or radius in X direction, The external diameter is changed along with
diameter or radius when the tool length compensation is changed.
Example:
Course of creation, execution and cancellation of tool offset by movement is as Fig. 2-5.

In Edit and Auto mode, a sole T word in executing tool offset (it is not with the motion instruction in the same
block) is relative to NO.004 BIT3 setting (as Fig.2-6 and Fig.2-7). When NO.003 Bit4=1 and a sole T

instruction is executed, the tool offset number is displayed in poor, which is cleared out(tool offset number is
still displayed in poor when tool offset is not executed for one axis, the previous bit of tool offset number is for
X axis tool compensation and the next one is for Z axis tool compensation) after executing tool offset.
Example: When NO.003 Bit is 1 and a sole T0102 is executed, the system displays after executing Z axis as
follows:

When T instruction and the motion instruction are in the same block and execute tool offset by modifying
coordinates, the motion instruction and T instruction are executed at the same time, the system executes by
adding the current tool offset to coordinates of motion instruction and whether the traverse speed is employed
the cutting feedrate or the rapid traverse speed defined by the motion instruction.
When T instruction and the motion instruction are in the same block and execute tool offset by traversing tool,
the motion instruction or T instruction is executed separately. Firstly tool change is executed and then the
motion instruction is executed. The tool offset is executed at current rapid traverse speed.
The tool offset is cancelled after one of the following operations is executed:
1. Execute T00 instruction;
2. Execute G28 or manual machine reference point return (only the tool offset of coordinate axis which is
executed machine reference point return is cancelled, and another one which is not executed machine
reference point return is not cancelled);
When NO.084 is not 1 232 and target tool number is not equal to current display tool number, the control
sequence and logic of toolpost is defined by PLC ladder diagram after commanding T instruction, please see
User Manual of machine tool manufacturer. GSK980TD standard PLC ladder diagram defines as follows:
clockwise rotation for selecting tool, counterclockwise rotation for toolpost clamping, directly inputting tool
selection signal for tool change. Please refer to Connection.
When the system is employed with line-up toolpost, NO.084 should be set to 1 and different tool
number is executed by different tool offset as T0101T0102T0103.

2.4 FEEDRATE FUNCTION (F FUNCTION)

2.4.1 Cutting FeedG98/G99F Instruction

Instruction format: G98 F__(F0001F8000, the leading zero can be omitted, feedrate per minute is specified,
mm/min)
Instruction function: cutting feedrate is specified as mm/min, G98 is the modal G instruction. G98 cannot be
input if the current instruction is G98 modal.
Instruction format: G99 F__(F0.0001F500, the leading zero can be omitted).
Instruction function: cutting feedrate is specified as mm/min, G99 is a modal G instruction. G99 cannot be input
if the current instruction is G98 modal. When G99F is executed, the arithmetic product of
F instruction value(mm/rev) and current spindle speed(rev/min) is taken as feedrate to
command actual cutting feedrate which is changed along with spindle speed. The cutting
feedrate per rev specified by G99 F_ is contributed to the equable cutting line on the
surface of workpiece. In G99, the machine tool must be employed with the spindle encoder
to machine the workpiece on the machine tool.
G98, G99 are the modal G instruction in the same group and only one is valid. G98 is the initial state G
instruction and the system defaults G98 is valid when the system switched on.
Reduction formula of feed between per rev and per min:
Fm = FrS
Fmfeed per min mm/min
Frfeed per revmm/r
Sspindle speed r/min
After the system is switched on, the feedrate is 0 and F value is reserved after F is commanded. The feedrate is 0
after F0 is executed. F value is reserved when the system resets and emergently stops.
Note: In G99 modal, there is the uneven cutting feedrate when the spindle speed is lower than 1 rev/min; there is
the follow error in the actual cutting feedrate when there is the swing in the spindle speed. To gain the high
machining quality, it is recommended that the selected spindle speed should be not lower than min. speed of
spindle servo or inverter.
Cutting feed: The system can control the motions in X, Z direction contributed that the motion path of tool and
the defined path by instructions (line straight, arc )is consistent, and also instantaneous speed on
the tangent of motion path and F word is consistent, which motion control is called cutting feed or
interpolation. The cutting feedrate is specified by F, the system divides the cutting feedrate
specified by F according to the programming path into vector in X, Z direction, also controls the
instantaneous speed in X, Z direction to contributed that the combined speed of vector in X, Z
direction is equal to F instruction value.

3.1.1 Modal, Non-modal and Initial Mode

G instructions are divided into 5 groups (00, 01, 02, 03, 04). The instructions in the 00 group are non-modal and
ones in other groups are modal, and G00, G97, G98, G40 are initial mode.
After G instructions are executed, their defined functions and states are valid until they are changed by others in
the same group, which instructions are called modal G instructions. After the modal G words are executed, and
before their defined functions and states are changed, the G instruction cannot be input again when they are
executed by the following block.
The defined function and state are valid one time after G instruction is executed, and the G word must be input
again when it is executed every time, which instruction is called non-modal G instruction.
After the system is switched on, the valid modal G instructions which are not executed their functions or states
are called initial mode G instruction. Take it as the initial mode G instruction to be executed when it is not be
input after the system is switched on. The initial words of the system include G00, G40, G97, G98.
3.1.2 Omit a Word

To simplify the programming, their instruction values are reserved after executing words in Table 3-2. If the

Cautions
When I = 0 or K = 0, they can be omitted; one of I, K or R must be input, otherwise the system alarms.
R is valid and I, K are invalid when they are input at the same time;
R value must be equal to or more than half distance from starting point to end point, and the system alarms if the
end point is not on the arc defined by R instruction;
Omit all or one of X(U), Z(W); coordinates of starting point and end point of this axis are the same when
omitting ones, the path is a full circle360 in G02/G03 when center point are specified by I,K; the path is 0
0when center point is specified by R.
R should be used for programming. The system executes in R= I 2 + K 2 to ensure starting point and end
point of arc path are the specified ones in I,K programming.
When the distance from center point to end point is not equal to R(R I 2 + K 2 ) in I,K programming, the
system automatically adjusts position of center point to ensure starting point and end point of arc path are the
specified ones; when the distance from center point to end point is more than 2R, and the system alarms.
Arc path can be more than and less than 180when R is commanded, the arc is more than180when R is
negative, and it is less than or equal to 180when R is positive.
Example: Arc cutting path from45.25 to63.06 as Fig. 3-8.

3.7 WORKPIECE COORDINATE SYSTEM G50
Instruction function: define the absolute coordinates of current position and create the workpiece coordinates
system(called floating coordinates system) by setting the absolute coordinates of
current position in the system. After executing G50, the system takes the current
position as reference point of program (program reference point) and returns to the
reference point after executing the reference point return of program. After the
workpiece coordinate system is created, input the coordinate values in the coordinate
system until the next workpiece coordinate system is created again when executing the

absolute coordinates programming.
Book
G50 is non-modal;
X: New absolute coordinates of current position in X direction;
U: Different value between the new absolute coordinates of current position in X direction and the absolute
coordinates before executing instructions;
Z: New absolute coordinates of current position in Z direction;
W: Different value between the new absolute coordinates of current position in X direction and the absolute
coordinates before executing instructions;
In G50, XUor ZWare not input, the system does not change current coordinates position as program
reference point; when XUand ZWare not input, the system takes the previous setting position as
program reference point.

3.8.3 Cautions Of Fixed Cycle Instructions

1)After XU, ZW, R are executed in the canned cycle instruction, their instruction values are value if X
UZWR are not redefined by executing a new canned cycle instructions. The instruction values of X
UZWR are cleared if non-modal G instruction00 Group except for G04 or G00, G01,G02, G03,
G32 is executed.
2)In MDI mode, the previous canned cycle can be executed by pressing the cycle start key after the canned
cycle is completed.
3)One cycle cannot be executed repetitively in G90G94 when the next block of G90G94 is M, S, T
instruction; the previous cycle is executed repetitively in G90G94 when the next block is ended( EOB;).
Example
N010 G90 X20.0 Z10.0 F400
N011 executed G90 one time repetitively

4)Pause or single block is executed in G90, G94, the single block stops after the tool moves end point of current
path.
3.9 MULTIPLE CYCLE INSTRUCTIONS
Multiple cycle instructions of the system includes axial roughing cycle G71, radial roughing cycle G72, closed
cutting cycle G73, finishing cycle G70, axial grooving multiple cycle G74, axial grooving multiple cycle G75 and
multiple thread cutting cycle G76. When the system executes these instructions, it automatically counts the cutting
times and the cutting path according to the programmed path, travels of tool infeed and tool retraction, executes
multiple machining cycletool infeed cuttingretract tooltool infeed , automatically completes the roughing,
finishing workpiece and the starting point and the end point of instruction are the same one.

Instruction function: G71 is divided into three parts:
1st blocks for defining the travels of tool infeed and retract tool, the cutting feedrate, the spindle speed and
the tool function when roughing;
2nd blocks for defining the block interval, finishing allowance;
3rd blocks for some continuous finishing path, counting the roughing path without being executed actually
when executing G71.
According to the finishing path, the finishing allowance, the path of tool infeed and tool retract, the system
automatically counts the path of roughingthe tool cuts the workpiece in paralleling with Z axis, and the
roughing is completed by multiple executing the cutting cycle tool infeedcuttingtool retraction. The starting
point and the end point are the same one. The instruction is applied to the formed roughing of non-formed rod.
Relevant definitions:
Finishing path: the above-mentioned Part 3 of G71(nsnf block)defines the finishing path, and the starting
point of finishing path (starting point of ns block)is the same these of starting point and end
point of G71, called A point; the first block of finishing path(ns block)is used for X rapid
traversing or tool infeed, and the end point of finishing path is called to B point; the end point
of finishing path(end point of nf block)is called to C point. The finishing path is ABC.
Roughing path: The finishing path is the one after offsetting the finishing allowanceuwand is the path
contour formed by executing G71. A, B, C point of finishing path after offset corresponds
separately to ABC point of roughing path, and the final continuous cutting path of G71 is
BCpoint.
dit is each travelunitmmradius valueof tool infeed without in X direction when roughing, and the
direction of tool infeed is defined by move direction of ns block. The instruction value d is reserved
after executing Udand the value of system parameter NO.051 is rewritten to d1000unit0.001
mm. The value of system parameter NO.051 is regarded as the travel of tool infeed when Udis not
input.
e: it is each travelunitmmradius valueof tool infeed without in X direction when roughing, and the
direction of tool retraction is opposite to that of tool infeed, the instruction value e is reserved and the value
of system parameter NO.052 is rewritten to e1000unit0.001 mmafter Reis executed. The value of
system parameter NO.052 is regarded as the travel of tool retraction when Reis not input.

ufinishing allowance in X direction is -99.999~99.999 (unit: mm in diameter). the coordinates offset in X
direction of roughing path compared to finishing path, i.e. the different value of absolute coordinates in X
direction between Aand A. The system defaults u=0 when Uu is not input, i.e. there is no finishing
allowance in X direction for roughing cycle.

wfinishing allowance in Z direction is -99.999~99.999 with sign symbol (unit: mm in diameter). the
coordinates offset in Z direction of roughing path compared to finishing path, i.e. the different value of
absolute coordinates in Z direction between Aand A. The system defaults w=0 when Ww is not
input, i.e. there is no finishing allowance in Z direction for roughing cycle.
F: Feedrate; S: Spindle speed; T: Tool number, tool offset number.
M, S, T, F: They can be specified in the first G71 or the second ones or program nsnf. M, S, T, F functions of M, S,
T, F blocks are invalid in G71, and they are valid in G70 finishing blocks.

Rapid traverse to A from A point, the travel in X direction is u, and the travel in Z direction is w
The travel in X direction from Ais d( tool infeed), ns block is for tool infeed at rapid traverse speed with
G0, is for tool infeed at feedrate F with G71, and its direction of tool infeed is that of AB point;

Instruction specifications
nsnf blocks in programming must be followed G71 blocks. If they are in the front of G71 blocks, the
system automatically searches and executes nsnf blocks, and then executes the next program following nf
block after they are executed, which causes the system executes nsnf blocks repetitively;
nsnf blocks are used for counting the roughing path and the blocks are not executed when G71 is executed.
F, S, T instructions of nsnf blocks are invalid when G71 is executed, at the moment, F, S, T instructions of
G71 blocks are valid. F, S, T of nsnf blocks are valid when executing nsnf to command G70 finishing
cycle;
There are G00,G01 without the word Z(W) in ns block, otherwise the system alarms ;
The dimensions in X, Z direction must be changed monotonously (always increasing or reducing) for the
finishing path;
In nsnf blocks, there are only G instructions: G01, G02, G03, G04, G96, G97, G98, G99, G40, G41,G42
and the system cannot call subprograms(M98/M99);
G96, G97, G98, G99, G40, G41, G42 are invalid in G71 and valid in G70. G96G97G98
When G71 is executed, the system can stop the automatic run and manual traverse, but return to the position
before manual traversing when G71 is executed again, otherwise, the following path will be wrong;
When the system is executing the feed hold or single block, the program pauses after the system has executed
end point of current path;
du are specified by the same U and different with or without being specified P,Q instructions;
G71 cannot be executed in MDI, otherwise, the system alarms;
There are no the same block number in ns~nf when compound cycle instructions are executed repetitively in
one program.

3.10 THREAD CUTTING
Book 11 Programming
Book
GSK980TD CNC system can machine many kinds of thread cutting, including metric/inch single, multi threads,
thread with variable lead and tapping cycle. Length and angle of thread run-out can be changed, multiple cycle thread
is machined by single sided to protect tool and improve smooth finish of its surface. Thread cutting includes:
continuous thread cutting G32, thread cutting with variable lead G34, Thread cutting in Z direction G33, Thread
cutting cycle G92, Multiple thread cutting cycle G76
Fundamentals
The machine used for thread cutting must be installed with spindle encoder which lines are set by NO.070m. Drive
ratio between spindle and encoder is set by NO.110 and NO.111. X or Z axis traverses to start machine after the
system receives spindle signal per rev in thread cutting, and so one thread is machined by multiple roughing,
finishing without changing spindle speed.
The system can machine many kinds of thread cutting, such as thread cutting without tool retraction groove. There is
a big error in the thread pitch because there are the acceleration and the deceleration at the starting and ending of
thread cutting in X, Z direction, and so there is length of thread lead-in and distance of tool retraction at the actual
starting and ending of thread cutting
The traverse speed of tool in X, Z direction is defined by spindle speed instead of cutting feedrate override in thread
cutting when the pitch is defined. The spindle override control is valid in thread cutting. When the spindle speed is
changed, there is error in pitch caused by acceleration/deceleration in X, Z direction, and so the spindle speed cannot
be changed and the spindle cannot be stopped in thread cutting, which will cause tool and workpiece to be damaged.
3.10.1 Thread Cutting With Constant Lead G32

Instruction formatG32 X(U)_ Z(W)_ F(I)_ J_ K_ Q_
Instruction function: The path of tool traversing is a straight line from starting point to end point as Fig.3-33; the
longer moving distance from starting point to end point(radius value in X direction) is called as
the long axis and another is called as the short axis. In course of motion, the long axis traverses
one lead when the spindle rotates one rev, and the short axis and the long axis execute the
linear interpolation. Form one spiral grooving with variable lead on the surface of workpiece to
realize thread cutting with constant lead. Metric pitch and inch pitch are defined respectively
by F, I. Metric or inch straight, taper, end face thread and continuous multi-section thread can
by machined in G32:
Instruction specification:
G32 is modal;
Pitch is defined to moving distance when the spindle rotates one rev(X axis in radius);
Cutting straight thread when starting point and end point in X direction are the same one(not to input X or U);
Cutting end face thread when starting point and end point in X direction are the same one(not to input Z or W);
Cutting taper thread when starting point and end point in X,Z direction are not the same one;
F: Metric pitch is moving distance of long axis when the spindle rotates one rev: 0.001500 mm. After F is executed,
it is valid until F with specified pitch is executed again.
-41
I: Teeth per inch. It is ones per inch25.4 mm in long axis, and also is circles of spindle rotation when the long
axis traverses one inch25.4 mm:0.0625400 tooth/inch. After I is executed, it is valid until I with specified
pitch is executed again.
Book
K: Length in long axis when thread run-out: 09999.999(unitmm). If the long axis is X, its value is in radius
without direction; K is modal parameter.

Q: Initial angle(offset angle)between spindle rotation one rev and starting point of thread cutting: 0360000(unit
0.001 degree). Q is non-modal parameter, must be defined every time, otherwise it is 00.
Q rules:
1. Its initial angle is 00 if Q is not specified;
2. For continuous thread cutting, Q specified by its following thread cutting block except for the first block is
invalid, namely Q is omitted even if it is specified;
3. Multi threads formed by initial angle is not more than 65535;
4. Unit : 0.0010 . Q180000 is input in program if it offsets 1800 with spindle one rev; if Q180 or Q180.0, it is
0.180.
Difference between long axis and short axis is as Fig. 3-33.

Cautions
J, K are modal. The thread run-out is previous J, K value when they are omitted in the next block in
continuous thread cutting. Their mode are cancelled when no thread cutting are executed;
There is no thread run-out when J, or J, K are omitted; K=J is the thread run-out value when K is omitted;
-42
There is no thread run-out when J=0 or J=0K=0;
The thread run-out value J=K when J0K=0;
Book 11 Programming
Book
There is no thread run-out when J=0 or K0;
If the current block is for thread and the next block is the same, the system does not test the spindle encoder
signal per rev at starting the next block to execute the direct thread cutting, which function is called as
continuous thread machining.
After the feed hold is executed, the system displays Pause and the thread cutting continuously executes not
to stop until the current block is executed completely; if the continuous thread cutting is executed, the
program run pauses after thread cutting blocks are executed completely.
Fundamentals
In Single block, the program stops run after the current block is executed. The program stops run after all
blocks for thread cutting are executed.
The thread cutting decelerates to stop when the system resets, emergently stop or its driver alarms.

Instruction function: Tool path is from starting point to end point and then from end point to starting point. The
tool traverses one pitch when the spindle rotates one rev, the pitch is consistent with
-45
pitch of tool and there is spiral grooving in internal hole of workpiece and the
internal machining can be completed one time.
Instruction specification: G33 is modal instruction;
Book
Z(W): starting point and end point in Z direction are the same one not to execute the thread
cutting when Z or W is not input;

F: metric thread pitch 0.001500 mm
I: teeth per inch thread 0.0625400 teeth/inch;
L: multi threads 199. It is single thread when L is omitted.
Cycle process

Note 1: Before tapping, define rotation direction of spindle according to tool rotating. The spindle stops rotation
after the tapping is completed and the spindle is started again when machining thread continuously.
Note 2: G33 is for rigid tapping. The spindle decelerates to stop after its stop signal is valid, at the moment, the
tool continuously infeeds in Z direction along with the spindle rotating, and so the actual cutting bottom
hole is deeper than requirement and the length is defined by the spindle speed and its brake in tapping.
Note 3: Rapid traverse speed in tapping in Z direction is defined by spindle speed and pitch is not related to
cutting feedrate override.
Note 4: In Single block to feed hold, the tapping cycle continuously executes not to stop until the tool returns to
starting point when the system displays Pause.
Note5: The thread cutting decelerates to stop when the system resets, emergently stop or its driver alarms.

The system can machine one thread with many tool infeeds in G92, but cannot do continuous two thread
and end face thread. Definition of thread pitch in G92 is the same that of G32, and a pitch is defined that it
is a moving distance of long axis(it is in radius in X direction) when the spindle rotates one rev.
Pitch of taper thread is defined that it is a moving distance of long axis(it is in radius in X direction). When
absolute value of coordinate difference between B point and C point in Z direction is more than that of X
( in radius), Z axis is long axis; and vice versa.
Cycle process: straight thread as Fig.3-39 and taper thread as Fig.3-40.

The tool rapidly traverses from starting point to cutting starting point in X direction;
Thread interpolates(linear interpolation) from the cutting starting point to cutting end point;
Retract the tool at the cutting feedrate in X direction (opposite direction to the above-mentioned ), and

G76 XU ZW Ri Pk Qd FI
Instruction functionMachining thread with specified depth of thread (total cutting depth)is completed by
multiple roughing and finishing, if the defined angle of thread is not 0, thread run-in
path of roughing is from its top to bottom, and angle of neighboring thread teeth is the
defined angle of thread. G76 can be used for machining the straight and taper thread with
thread run-out path, which is contributed to thread cutting with single tool edge to reduce
the wear of tool and to improve the precision of machining thread. But G76 cannot be
used for machining the face thread. machining path is as Fig. 3-43(a):
Starting point(end point): position before block runs and behind blocks run, defined by A point;
End point of thread(D point): end point of thread cutting defined by XU ZW ,.
The tool will not reach the point in cutting if there is the thread run-out path;
Starting point of thread(C point): its absolute coordinates is the same that of A point and the different
value of absolute coordinates between C and D in X direction is i(thread taper with radius value). The tool
cannot reach C point in cutting when the defined angle of thread is not 0;
Reference point of thread cutting depthB point: its absolute coordinates is the same that of A point
and the different value of absolute coordinates between B and C in X direction is k(thread taper with
radius value).The cutting depth of thread at B point is 0 which is the reference point used for

P(m)Times of thread finishing: 0099 (unittimes) with 2-digit digital. It is valid after m instruction
value is executed, and the value of system parameter NO.057 is rewritten to m. The value of system

according to the programmed thread path, the first finishing cutting travel is d and the following
one is 0,
P(r)Width of thread run-out 0099(unit: 0.1LL is the thread pitch) with 2-digit digital. It is valid
after r instruction value is executed and the value of system parameter NO.019 is rewritten to r. The
value of system parameter NO.019 is the width of thread run-out when r is not input. The thread
run-out function can be applied to thread machining without tool retraction groove and the width of
thread run-out defined by system parameter NO.019 is valid for G92;
P(a)Angles at taper of neighboring two tooth are 00, 29, 30, 55, 60, 80, unit: degreewith 2-digit
digital. It is valid after a instruction value is executed and the value of system parameter NO.058 is
rewritten to a. The value of system parameter NO.058 is regarded as angle of thread tooth. The actual
angle of thread in defined by tool ones and so a should be the same as the tool angle;
Q(dmin)Minimum cutting travel of thread roughing(unit: 0.001mm, radius value without signs).
When n - n 1 ddmin, dmin is regarded as the cutting travel of current roughing,
i.e. depth of current thread cutting is n 1 d+dmin.
dmin is applied because the cutting travel of roughing is undersize and the times of roughing is
excessive, which is caused the cutting travel of thread roughing gradually decreases. After Qdmin

rewritten to minimum cutting travel;
R(d): It is the cutting travel of thread finishing, and is the different value(unit:mm, radius value without

point of tool cutting workpiece is a circle motion around the axes of spindle, and the instantaneous speed in the
circle tangent direction is called the cutting surface(for short surface speed). There are different surface speed for
the different workpiece and tool with different material.
When the spindle speed controlled by the analog voltage is valid, the constant surface control is valid. The
spindle speed is changed along with the absolute value of X absolute coordinates of programming path in the
constant speed control. If the absolute value of X absolute coordinates adds, the spindle speed reduces, and vice
verse, which make the cutting surface speed as S instruction value. The constant speed control to cut the
workpiece makes sure all smooth finish on the surface of workpiece with diameter changing.

In G96, the spindle speed is changed along with the absolute value of programming path X absolute coordinate
value in the course of cutting feed (interpolation), but it is not changed in G00 because there is no actual cutting
-55
and is counted based on the surface speed of end point in the program block.
In G96, Z coordinates axis of workpiece system must consist with the axes of spindle (rotary axis of workpiece),
Book
otherwise, there is different between the actual surface speed and the defined one.
In G96, G50 S_ can limit max. spindle speed (rev/min). The actual spindle speed is the limit value of max. speed
when the spindle speed counted by the surface speed and X coordinate value is more than the max. spindle speed
set by G50 S_. After the system powers on, max. spindle speed limit value is not defined and its function is
invalid. Max. spindle speed limit value defined by G50 S_ is reserved before it is defined again and its function
is valid in G96. Max. spindle speed defined by G50 S_ is invalid in G97 but its limit value is reserved.
Note: In G96, the spindle speed is limited to 99 rev/min (set by NO.043) if G50, S0 are executed.
When the constant surface speed is controlled by the system parameter NO.043, the spindle speed is lower limit,
which is higher than one counted by the surface speed and X axis coordinate value
Example
ProgramO0014
M3 G96 S300 Spindle rotates clockwise, the constant surface speed control is valid and
the surface speed is 300m/min
G0 X100 Z100 Rapid traverse to A point with spindle speed 955 rev/min
G0 X50 Z0 Rapid traverse to B point with spindle speed 1910 rev/min
G1 W-30 F200 Cut from B to C with spindle speed 1910 rev/min
X80 W-20 F150 Cut from C to D with spindle speed 1910 rev/min and surface
speed 1194 rev/min
G0 X100 Z100 Rapid retract to A point with spindle speed 955 rev/min
M30 End of program, spindle stop and coolant OFF
Note 1: In G96, S value commanded is reserved in g97. Its value is resumed after it returns to G96. Example:
G96 S50 Cutting surface speed 50m/min
G97 S1000 Spindle speed 1000 rev/min
G96 G01 X200Cutting surface speed 50m/min
Note 2: The constant surface speed control is valid when the machine tool is locked (X, Z axis do not move when
-56
their motion instruction are executed);

Note 3: To gain the precise thread machining, it should not be adopted with the constant surface speed control

but the constant rotational speed (G97) in the course of thread cutting;
Note 4: From G96 to G97, if none of S instruction (rev/min) is commanded in the program block in G97, the last
spindle speed in G96 is taken as S instruction in G97, namely, the spindle speed is not changed at this time;
Note 5: In G96, when the spindle speed counted by the cutting surface speed is more than max. speed of current
spindle gear (system parameter NO.037NO.040), at this time, the spindle speed is limited to max. one of
current spindle gear.

After the system turns on, the feedrate is ones set by NO.030 and F value is reserved after F is commanded. The
feed rate is 0 after F0 is executed. F value is reserved when the system resets and emergently stops.
Parameters
System parameter NO.027: the upper limit value of cutting feed rate(they are the same in X, Z axis
diameter/min in X axis);
System parameter NO.029: exponential function for time constant of acceleration/ deceleration when cutting
feed and manual feed;
System parameter NO.030: initial (ultimate) speed of acceleration/deceleration in exponential function when
cutting feed and manual feed.

Note: In G99 modal, there is the uneven cutting feed rate when the spindle speed is lower than 1 rev/min; there is
the follow error in the actual cutting feed rate when there is the swing in the spindle speed. To gain the high
machining quality, it is recommended that the selected spindle speed should be not lower than min. speed of
spindle servo or inverter

Chapter 4 Tool nose radius compensation
Chapter 4 TOOL NOSE RADIUS COMPENSATION (G41G42)

4.1 APPLICATION
4.1.1 Overview
Part program is compiled generally for one point of tool according to a workpiece contour. The point is
regarded generally as the tool nose A point in an imaginary state(there is no the imaginary tool nose point in
fact and the tool nose radius can be omitted when using the imaginary tool nose point to program) or as the
center point of tool nose arc( as Fig. 3-41). Its nose of turning tool is not the imaginary point but one arc owing
to the technology and other requirement in the actual machining. There is the warp between the actual cutting
point and the cutting point in imaginary state, which will cause the excessive or less cutting to not to gain the
perfect precision.
Fig. 4-1 Tool

B type tool compensation is defined that a workpiece contour path is offset one tool nose radius, which cause
there is excessive cutting at a intersection of two programs because of executing motion path of next after
completing the previous block.
To avoid of the above-mentioned ones, the system is employed with C type tool compensation method
(namely, tool nose radius compensation). The system will read next block instead of executing it immediately
after reading a block in C type tool compensation method, and count corresponding motion path according to
intersection of blocks. Contour can be compensated precisely because of pretreatment of reading two blocks as.

4.1.2 Imaginary Tool Nose Direction
Suppose that it is generally difficult to set the tool nose radius center on the initial position as Fig. 4-3;suppose
that it is easily set the tool nose on it as Fig. 4-4; The tool nose radius can be omitted in programming. Fig. 4-5
and Fig.4-6 correspond separately to the tool paths of tool nose center programming and imaginary tool nose
programming when tool nose radius is executed or not.

The tool is supposed to one point in programming but the actual cutting blade is not one ideal point owing to
machining technology. Because the cutting blade is not one point but one arc, machining error is caused which
can be deleted by tool nose arc radius compensation. In actual machining, suppose that there are different
position relationship between tool nose point and tool nose arc center point, and so it must create correct its
direction of imaginary tool nose.

From tool nose center to imaginary tool nose, set imaginary tool nose numbers according to tool direction in
cutting. Suppose there are 10 kinds of tool nose setting and 9 directions for position relationship. The tool nose

directions are different in different coordinate system(rear toolpost coordinate system and front toolpost
coordinate system) even if they are the same tool nose direction numbers as the following figures. In figures, it
represents relationships between tool nose and starting point, and end point of arrowhead is the imaginary tool
nose; T1T8 in rear toolpost coordinate system is as Fig. 4-5; T1T8 in front toolpost coordinate system is
as Fig. 4-6 the tool nose center and starting point for T0 and T9 as Fig. 4-9.

4.1.3 Compensation Value Setting

Preset imaginary tool nose number and tool nose radius value for each tool before executing tool nose radius
compensation. Set the tool nose radius compensation value in Offset window (as Fig. 4-1), R is tool nose
radius compensation value and T is imaginary tool nose number.
Table 4-1 Display window of system tool nose radius compensation value

002 1.020 20.123 0.180 3

Note: Tool offset value can be specified in diameter or radius in X direction, set by No.004 Bit4 ORC, offset
value is in radius when ORC=1 and is in diameter when ORC=0.
In toolsetting, the tool nose is also imaginary tool nose point of Tn (n=0~9) when taking Tn(n=0~9) as
imaginary
tool nose. For the same tool, offset value from standard point to tool nose radius center( imaginary tool nose is
T3) is different with that of ones from standard point to imaginary tool nose( imaginary tool nose is T3) when
T0
and T3 tool nose points are selected to toolsetting in rear toolpost coordinate system, taking toolpost center as
standard point. It is easier to measure distances from the standard point to the tool nose radius center than from
the standard point to the imaginary tool nose, and so set the tool offset value by measuring distance from the
standard point to the imaginary tool nose(tool nose direction of T3).

4.1.6 Cautious
The system is in tool nose radius compensation mode at initial state, and starts to create tool nose radius
compensation offset mode when executing G41 or G42. When the system starts to execute compensation, it
pre-read two blocks, and the next block is saved to storage for tool nose radius compensation when executing
one of them. The system reads two blocks in Single mode and stops after executing end point of the first
block.
In tool nose radius compensation mode, the tool nose center moves to end point of previous block and is
vertical to its path when the system executes two block or more than blocks without motion instruction.
The system cannot create and cancel tool nose radius compensation
Tool nose radius R is without negative value, otherwise there is a mistake running path.
Tool nose radius compensation is created and cancelled in G00 or G01 instead of G02 or G03, otherwise, the
system alarms.
The system cancels the tool nose radius compensation mode when pressing PESET key.
G40 must be specified to cancel offset mode before the program is ended, otherwise the tool path offsets one
tool nose radius.
The system executes the tool nose radius compensation in main program and subprogram but must cancel it
before calling subprogram and then create it again in the subprogram.
The system does not execute the tool nose radius compensation in G71, G72, G73, G74, G75, G76 and cancel
it temporarily.
-8
The system executes the tool nose radius compensation in G90, G94, it offsets one tool nose radius for G41 or
G42.

4.1.7 Application
Machine a workpiece in the front toolpost coordinate system as Fig. 4-11. Tool number: T0101, tool nose
radius R=2, imaginary tool nose number T=3.
R6
X
Fig. 4-11
For toolsetting in Offset Cancel mode, after toolsetting, Z axis offsets one tool nose radius and its direction is
relative to that of imaginary tool nose and toolsetting point, otherwise the system excessively cuts tool nose
radius when it starts to cut.
Set the tool nose radius R and imaginary tool nose direction in Offset window as Fig.

4.2.4 Tool Traversing in Offset Canceling Mode

In compensation mode, when the system executes a block with one of the followings, it enters compensation
canceling mode, which is defined to compensation canceling of block
1. Execute G40 in a program;

2. Execute M30.
The system cannot execute G02 and G03 when canceling C tool compensation (tool nose radius compensation),
otherwise the system alarms and stops run.
In compensation canceling mode, the system executes the block and ones in the register for tool nose radius
compensation. At the moment, the run stops after executing one block when single block is ON. The system
executes the next one but does not read its following one when pressing Start button again.
When the system is still in compensation canceling mode, the next block without others to be executed is read
into buffer register for tool nose radius compensation.

4.2.5 Tool Interference Check

Interference is defined that the tool cuts workpiece excessively and it can find out excessive cutting in advance,
the interference check is executed even if the excessive cutting is not created, but the system cannot find out all
tool interferences.
(1) Fundamental conditions

1) The tool path direction is different that of program path(angle is 90~270 ).
2) There is a big difference (180)for two angles between starting point and end point of tool nose center
path, and between starting point and end point of program path.
Example: linear machining

4.2.6 Instructions for Canceling Compensation Vector Temporarily

In compensation mode, the compensation vector is cancelled temporarily in G50, G71~G76 and is automatically
resumed after executing the instructions. At the moment, the compensation is cancelled temporarily and the tool
directly moves from intersection to a point for canceling compensation vector. The tool directly moves again to
the intersection after the compensation mode is resumed.

Compensation method of tool nose radius compensation in G90 or G94:
A. Each cycle path and tool nose center path are parallel to program path.
B. Offset directions are the same in G41 and G42 as the following figure.
C. When the system compensates the imaginary tool nose direction NO. 0, the motion path offsets a tool nose
radius vector, and the system does not count any intersections in cycle.

4.2.7 Particular
Inside chamfer machining less than tool nose radius
At the moment, the tool inside offset causes an excessive cutting. The tool stops and the system alarms ( P/S41)
when starting the previous block or chamfer moving. But the tool stops the end point of previous block when
Single Block is ON.
Machining concave less than tool nose diameter
There is an excessive cutting when the tool nose center path is opposite to program path caused by tool nose
radius compensation. At the moment, the tool stops and the system alarms when starting the previous block or
chamfer moving.
Machining sidestep less than tool nose radius
The tool center path can be opposite to program path when the sidestep is less than tool nose radius and is an arc
-23
in program. At the moment, the system automatically ignores the first vector and directly moves end point of
second vector linearly. The program stops at the end point in single block and otherwise the cycle machining is
continuously executed. If the sidestep is a straight line, compensation is executed correctly and the system does
not alarm(but the not-cutting is still reserved).
Subprograms in G instructions
The system must be in canceling compensation mode before calling subprograms. After calling subprograms, the
offset is executed and the system must be in canceling compensation mode before returning to main programs,
otherwise the system alarms.
Changing compensation value
(a) Change compensation value in canceling tool change mode. New compensation value is valid after tool
change when the compensation value is changed in compensation mode.
(b) Compensation value sign symbol and tool nose center path
G41 and G42 are exchanged each other if the compensation value is negative(-). The tool moves along
inside when its center moves along outside of workpiece, and vice versa.
Generally, the compensation value is positive(+) in programming. The compensation value is negative(-) when
the tool path is as the above-mentioned (a), and vice versa.
Besides, direction of tool nose offset changes when offset value sign symbol is changed, but we suppose the
direction of tool nose is not changed. Generally, the offset value sign symbol is not changed.
End point of programmed arc out of arc
The tool stops and the system alarms and displays End point of arc is not on arc when the end point of arc is
not on arc in programs.

1.2.3 Installation Requirement of the Machine Electromagnetism Cabinet
The cabinet must be fully closed and designed to prevent the entry of airborne dustcoolantand organic solvent.
The cabinet must be designed to maintain a difference in temperature of 10 or less between the air in the
cabinet and the outside air when the temperature in the cabinet increases.The distance between back cover of
CNC and surface of cabinet isnt less than 20cm.
A closed cabinet must be equipped with a fan to circulate the air within.
The display panel must be installed in a location where coolant cannot be poured directly on it.
Cabinet design to minimize noise generation and to prevent it from being transmitted to the CNC is necessary.

1.2.4 Action Against Noise
The CNC has been designed to be protected from external noise.Howeverit is difficult to measure the lever and
frequency of noise quantitativelyand noise has many uncertain factors.In order to improve the stability of the CNC
guard against noise in the machine as following
1, CNC should be apart from the units which generating noisesuch as frequency inverterAC contactorstatic
generatorhigh voltage generator etc.
2, Provide the CNC with power supply by isolated transformermachine tool fixed with CNC must be grounded
and the independent grounding cables are required for CNC and servo driver.
3, Noise suppressorParallel connect RC-type loop with AC coilas fig.1-5and RC-type loop must be as near
as possible to inductance load.Conversely parallel connect diode with DC coilas fig.1-6.Parallel connect
surge absorber with coil of AC motor.

In the standard PLC programfour modes for tool changing are defined as following.
1PB5=0PB6=0mode B
During the tool changing processCNC outputs TL+ signal firstly until the tool signalT01~T08
being detectedthen CNC outputs TL- signal after the time specified by No.82 parameter from
TL+ being closedafterwards CNC detects TCP signal and closes TL- signal after the time
specified by No.85 parameter from TCP being detectedand tool changing process is over.
CNC will give alarms and close TL- signal when not detecting TCP signal during the time
specified by No.83 parameter after outputting TL- signal.
Set bit0TCPSof No.11 parameter to 0 if TCP signal doesnt exist.

The tool changing process is same as the mode Bexcept for the added step of confirming tool positionin which
CNC will detect the tool signal at the moment of closing TL-if the current tool position is in accordance with the
current tool numberthe tool changing process is overotherwiseCNC will giveunfinished tool changingalarm.

4.2 DRIVER SETTING
Specify bit1bit0 of No.9 state parameter according to the driver alarm voltagewhich should be specified to 1
to fit our own driver.
Bit1bit0 of No.8 state parameter can be modified when the machine moving direction isnt consistent with the
dictate desired direction.

From aboveNo.151618 parameters are 1 and No.17 parameter is 2.
The permitted max. Speed will descend when CMR is less than CMD.For examplethe permitted max. speed of
Z is 8000mm/min when No.16 parameter is 1 and No.18 parameter is 2.
The position accuracy will decline when CMR isnt equivalent to CMD.For exampleCNC only outputs one
pulse with the input increment being 0.005mm when No.16 parameter is 1 and No.18 parameter is 5.
To insure the position accuracy and speedrecommend to set the gear ratio of CNC to 11 and set that of servo
to the calculated value.
As possible as one canchoose the step driver with subdivision function and select the reasonable machine
transmission ratio to keep the gear ratio of CNC with 11.

Larger the acc./dec. time constant isthe acc./dec. process is more slowthe machine strike is smaller and
the cutting efficiency is lower. v.v.
When the acc./dec. time constant is samehigher the start/end speed isthe acc./dec. process is more rapid
the machine strike is greater and the cutting efficiency is higher. v.v.
Acc./dec. characteristic regulating is on the principle of reducing the time constant and increasing the start/end
speed properlyand insuring no driver alarmno lost stepno obvious machine strike.
When bit3 of No.27 state parameter is 1the cutting point of intersection is commanded position and the
efficiency is be lowotherwisearc transition occurs in this point which will cause smooth workpiece surfaceand the
efficiency is high.To avoid lost stepthis bit parameter should be 1 when adopting step drivers.

Bit0/1MZRXMZRZof No.183 parameterthe reference point return direction is whether positive or negative
for XZ axes.
Reference point return can be realized after the travel-limit switch is valid.
Generallythe reference point is fixed at the farthest travel position and the bumper length is more than 25mm
which is long enough to insure the adequate decelerating distanceand confirm decelerating and accurate return.More
rapid the speed is and longer the bumper isthe accuracy of reference point return is higher.
Book3 Connection
Generallythere are two connection methods for reference point return

Bit4 of No.1 parameter is 0spindle controlled by on-off variable
Bit0 of No.3 parameter is 0four-gear spindle
4.6.4 Spindle Speed Controlled by Analog Voltage
Spindle speed controlled by analog voltage can be realized by specifying the parametersin which 010V
voltage will be outputted to control frequency convertor.The relative parameters as following
Bit4 of No.1 parameter is 1spindle speed controlled by analog voltage
No.21 parameterthe compensation voltage when spindle speed dictate is 10V
No.36 parameterthe compensation voltage when spindle speed dictate is 0V
No.37No.40 parametersthe highest spindle speed for gear1gear4gear1 is default when powering on
Some parameters need to specify for the frequency convertor

Positive or negative rotation modedecided by VF port
Frequency setting modedecided by FR mode
Book3 Connection
No.37No.40 parameters can be specified to let the commanded speed be consistent with the real speed
detected by encoder.The method is to select gear1 and command S9999 in MDI modethen specified No.37
parameter with the real spindle speed valuewhich is displayed in the screen. The same methods as other gears.
The voltage should be 0V at S0 when the voltage is 10V at S9999and the bias voltage can be cancelled by
specifying No.21 and No.36 parameterswhich have been adjusted correctly before leaving factory.
If the voltage is more than 10V at S9999No.21 parameter should be diminished.If the voltage is more than 0V
at S0No.36 parameter should be diminished.
That command S9999 in MDI mode and specified No.37 parameter with the speed valuewhich be displayed in
the speed induction instrumentis feasible without encoders.

Chapter 6 Stored Pitch Error Compensation
Chapter6 STORED PITCH ERROR COMPENSATION
6.1 FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Stored pitch error compensation function of GSK980TD can reduce the accuracy error caused by the error screw
pitch.
6.2 SPECIFICATION
1, The compensation value is related with compensation origincompensation intervalcompensation point and
moving direction etc.
2, Take the reference point as compensation origin and specify the parameters with compensation value on each
interval of each axis.
3, Compensation point number is 256.
4, Compensation range of each point is from 0 to255um.
5, Compensation interval is from 1000 to 9999999um.
6, Compensation value of point N is decided by the machine error between point N and point N-1.
7, Factual compensation interval is decided by the max. compensation range and machine travel.
8, The setting method is same as the parameters setting of CNCplease read OPERATION MANUAL for
details.

1 0 3 Pitch error interval of Z axis

Input unit is 0.001mm and setting range is from 1000 to 9999999.
6.3.4 Compensation Value
Each compensation value is diameter input and input unit is 0.001mm.Please set compensation value as the
following table.

6.4 NOTES for SETTING COMPENSATION VALUE
1, Pitch error compensation can be specified only in the second level authority.
2, No compensation for zero compensation interval.
3, When specifying the parameterscompensation can be realized correctly only after returning reference point.
Book3
6.5 EXAMPLE for SETTING COMPENSATION PARAMETERS

ok3 Connection
1, When No.99 parameter is 0 and No.103 parameter is 10.00

Under this conditionthe compensation value of N segment can be set in the No.000N position.Because the
reference point is compensation origin corresponding with No.001 compensation valuepitch error compensation can
be realized in the positive moving direction from the reference point.

In above diagramNo.000 position is compensation origin and No.001 position is the point 10.000 away from
the origin in positive moving directionand the rest may be deduced by analogy.That is to saycompensation value at
N point is set for moving fromN-1compensation interval to Ncompensation interval.

In factthe compensation value for from the origin to +30.000 is that (+7)+(-6)+(+4).
2, when No.099 parameter is 60 and No.103 parameter is 10.000
Under this conditionthe compensation value of N segment can be set in the No.060N position in moving
positive direction and the compensation value of N segment can be set in the No.061N position in moving negative
direction. Thereforepitch error compensation can be realized in two directions.
