SINUMERIK CNC performance – the machining standard

SINUMERIK CNC controls set standards relating to all aspects of machining performance. Whether precision and

speed, energy efficiency and safety or reducing cycle times – SINUMERIK sets the pace.

Highest precisionSINUMERIK CNC and SINAMICS drives compute with high-performance 80-bit NANOFP accuracy. This eliminates rounding errors – and therefore offers an extremely high internal computational precision in the complete control chain. Further, a feed forward control ensures that the following error is almost completely compensated – and the jerk limiting reduces the stress on the mechanical system when axes accelerate. With Dynamic Servo Control, SINAMICS control technology offers additional position con-trol in the drive – as additional positive feature, high noise immunity for the machine control.

Maximum speedWhen machining many CNC blocks in the shortest time, for instance, free- form surfaces, the machining process itself no longer defines the velocity, but the performance of the CNC. Here, SINUMERIK with Advanced Surface represents the ideal solution: Advanced Surface stands for state-of-the-art control algorithms, such as Look Ahead or dynamic compression of linear and circular blocks in 5th degree polynomials (NURBS). This means that machines equipped with SINUMERIK can be operated to their physical limit.

Shortest idle timesEspecially in large series production, idle times where the machine is no longer productive represent a critical productivity-inhibiting factor. With its synchronous architecture and intelligent functions such as “synchronized actions” or “asynchronous subprograms”, SINUMERIK provides the opti-mum solution. For instance, loading equipment can be implemented with-out having to make time-consuming interventions in the PLC adaptation control.

Kinematic transformationsWhen handling complex machine kinematics, SINUMERIK CNC is in its ele-ment – from the classic face/peripheral surface transformation for lathes up to multi-side machining in swiveled planes. Further, SINUMERIK 840D sl supports any special transformation – therefore paving the way for lead-ing-edge machine tool applications.

Energy efficiency with SINUMERIK Ctrl-EnergySiemens Machine Tool Systems sets the standard when it comes to energy efficiency in machine tools: SINUMERIK Ctrl-Energy encompasses a wide range of high-efficiency drive/motor components, CNC/drive functions, software solutions and services. SINUMERIK Ctrl-Energy offers energy-effi-cient solutions over the complete machine lifecycle: from the design to operation of the machine. For instance, users have intelligent functions at their fingertips, such as being able to analyze the energy costs associated with the workpiece: SINUMERIK helps save energy by simply pressing the shortcut key Ctrl + E. www.siemens.com/sinumerik/ctrl-energy

SINUMERIK Operate – the state-of-the-art operating concept for the 21st century

SINUMERIK Operate offers the highest level of operator friendliness at the machine tool – setting the standard

for efficient machine tool operation.

www.siemens.com/sinumerik-operate

Interactive input with Animated ElementsWith Animated Elements, SINUMERIK Operate makes it very easy to enter parameters. Animated Elements completely redefine what graphic pro-gramming and operation really mean – using a unique display with moving image sequences.

Program Manager for a better overviewSINUMERIK´s Program Manager makes data handling just as simple as at a PC. Data from various storage media are transparently displayed. A CNC program can be transferred from the data server to the CNC memory by simply copying and pasting. And now it has been made even simpler: Large mold making workpieces can be executed in the Program Manager, directly via the company network or CF card.

SinuTrain for SINUMERIK OperateSinuTrain training software brings SINUMERIK Operate close to reality on the PC, including the animated machine operator panel. Know-how gained in the training course can be easily transferred into practice. The powerful tool facilitates offline programming at the PC close to reality and NC pro-grams can be directly transferred to the CNC. Thanks to SINUMERIK Operate and the original SINUMERIK CNC kernel, all operating and programming processes can be used without any restric-tions and CNC programs can be executed. www.siemens.com/sinutrain

Intelligent JOG modeIn SINUMERIK Operate, the intelligent JOG mode provides graphic, interac-tive support when setting up lathes and turning-milling machines. This means that the tool can be simply loaded with just 3 clicks. Face turn-ing of a blank or machining soft clamping jaws is directly realized in the intelligent JOG mode – without having to generate a part program. This means that non-productive times are reduced to an absolute minimum.

Measuring a tool and setting the zero offsetMeasuring tools and determining the zero offset are optimally supported in the intelligent JOG mode: measuring tools is a simple affair for SINUMERIK. Irrespective of whether the tool geometry is simply “scratched” or determined using a tool measuring system – by pressing just one key, the geometry is transferred into the tool offset memory of the CNC. Set-ting the workpiece zero is also intuitively supported using animated screen forms.

Transparent tool managementSINUMERIK offers the perfect command HQ when it comes to managing tools. Tool data and turret location information are transparently displayed in one screen. A suitable turret location is completely automatically selected: Select the tool, and press a key – SINUMERIK already suggests a suitable revolver location. It goes without saying that the lifetime of tools is monitored, and, when required, the appropriate replacement tool is loaded.

SINUMERIK Operate – intuitive handling, shorter setting-up times

Based on an intelligent JOG mode and intuitive tool management, SINUMERIK Operate graphically and interac-

tively supports all of the typical setting-up functions. This reduces unproductive times to an absolute minimum.

10

SINUMERIK Operate – perfect for all programming tasks

With various programming languages, SINUMERIK supports all CNC programming methods that are specified

around the world – from machining individual parts up to large series production.

For large series …Shortest machining times for large series production and with the highest flexibility for special applications: SINUMERIK CNC controls make this possi-ble with advanced CNC programming based on high-level language ele-ments. Using programGUIDE, SINUMERIK CNC programs can be easily com-bined with high-performance technology and measuring cycles. Even classic ISO codes can be programmed. As a consequence, SINUMERIK is especially attractive for operators who prefer this classic programming method.

… and small series productionFor small series production and individual parts, the programming time is a decisive productivity factor. When it comes to this discipline, ShopTurn machining step programming is unbeatable. Here, machining operations such as drilling, centering, plunging or pocket milling are shown in the form of machining steps. Even for complicated machining operations – CNC programs are extremely compact and easy to read. Using dynamic broken-line graphics, which are absolutely unique in the market, all of the geometrical elements can be displayed to scale in the CNC program.

CNC simulation for reliable and safe processesSINUMERIK CNC simulation guarantees a maximum of process reliability and safety as the real geometries of the equipped tools are always used. It goes without saying that the simulation shows the precise image of the required machining – not just brilliant, colored graphics. Whether face or peripheral surfaces, swiveled workpiece planes or even when machining in several machining channels – SINUMERIK CNC simulation simulates every machining type. Even very large part programs can be displayed on the screen within seconds with the fast mold making view.

Cycle-controlled lathes are frequently used for

repairing and machining individual parts.

The requirement placed on the control is quite

clear: It must be especially simple to program.

SINUMERIK controls are the optimum solution.

“Manual machine” offers the highest flexibility when it comes to operation and programming Cycle-controlled lathes are predominantly used to manu-facture individual parts or small series. The operator of a machine such as this expects a high degree of program-ming flexibility from the CNC. All SINUMERIK CNCs offer this in the form of the “Manual machine” function. This function allows manual machining operations to be made – without a program having to be written. The operator is navigated in a user-friendly way to the finished workpiece. This is achieved using special functions, which support the handwheels of a machine of this type and the standard use of machining cycles. This makes the “Manual machine” function ideal for entry-level CNC personnel.

Manual mode machining with SINUMERIK

The “Manual machine” function also offers additional operator options for cycle-controlled lathes. It allows straight lines and inclines to be turned using crossover switches, individual machining of turning and drilling cycles – without having to generate a program – as well as repairing threads.

SINUMERIK technology cycles for standard CNC lathesIntelligent turning cycles are the “core of a lathe”. This is the reason that SINUMERIK CNCs have a comprehensive range of turning functions: cutting, grooving, undercut and thread cycles up to machining freely definable con-tours and residual material detection. SINUMERIK com-plies with each and every turning requirement when it comes to machining strategies – such as roughing or finishing parallel to the axis and contour, plunging or plunge turning.

When it comes to producing basic turned parts in large series

production, rugged and compact CNC controls and program-

ming in line with workshop requirements are required.

Control performance that is precisely tailored to the applica-

tion is also just as important. The wide SINUMERIK portfolio

comes into its own here, and guarantees the optimum CNC

system.

Broad SINUMERIK portfolioStandard CNC turning is simple for all SINUMERIK CNCs. Based on the required functional scope, the required per-formance and the number of axes, the optimum SINUMERIK is available for each and every application.

Machines with main and counterspindle, Y-axes and driven tools are optimally supported by the extensive turning and milling cycle package of SINUMERIK 828 controls and SINUMERIK 840D sl.

Counterspindle technology cycleThe counterspindle technology cycle allows machining to be performed on two spindles on one lathe. With this con-figuration, workpieces are automatically transferred between the spindles. Counterspindle machining increases the productivity and machining quality as the workpiece does not have to be manually reclamped.

Standard CNC turning with SINUMERIK

Fast and effective plunge turningFast from the drawing to the workpiece: Especially for dif-ficult contours with relief cuts, plunge turning represents the ideal machining process. Using just one tool, the com-plete contour can be machined with plunge and plunge turning cycles. It is not necessary to set up and change tools. As usual, when programming, the contour is gener-ated and linked with the plunge turning cycle. There are no additional programming costs.

14

Innovative CNC functions for milling on lathesThe state-of-the-art and standard SINUMERIK Operate user interface simply makes it possible: Milling on lathes. The same look & feel when it comes to machining and the comprehensive CNC functions lead to the optimum solu-tion for the particular application.

Irrespective as to whether parts should be milled or machined on the face or peripheral surface: With TRANSMIT and TRACYL, the machine plane is precisely transformed at the correct location. This is all done com-pletely automatically thanks to the NC functionality embedded in SINUMERIK Operate – without requiring a CAD/CAM system or calculator.

TRANSMIT makes face machining easyC-axis fully utilized: A lathe spindle operated in the C-axis mode is more than just a simple positioning axis. Using the TRANSMIT function in SINUMERIK Operate, driven tools can be used to drill and mill on the face side of a workpiece.

When workpieces are to be milled on

lathes, a flexible high-performance

CNC is needed that is suitable for

programming tasks in workshop envi-

ronments.

Outstanding peripheral surface machining with TRACYLLathes with SINUMERIK Operate are the absolute masters when it comes to peripheral surface machining. Even when the tool offset is activated, slots with parallel walls can be machined. Geometries are simply programmed in the flattened surface. The CNC control takes care of every-thing else.

SINUMERIK technology cycles for milling applicationsSINUMERIK cycles support users when it comes to pro-gramming workpieces even faster and more simply. Even for complex machining tasks, comprehensive machining steps can be more simply and quickly realized by using innovative cycles – for example spiral milling and plunge cutting for machining with low cutting pressure and low deformation. And of course SINUMERIK CNCs provide all of the cycles and functions that are required for milling.

16

Multi-channel machining made easyIn this segment, lathes with several tool slides are consid-ered to be high-end machines. SINUMERIK Operate facili-tates that these multi-channel machining operations can be even more efficiently programmed. SINUMERIK man-ages the individual tool slides in the various channels. Pro-grams must be generated for each channel, which then run simultaneously during machining. In SINUMERIK Oper-ate, the “programSync” function is a high-performance editor, which, adapted to the channel structure of the machine, permits programs to be simultaneously edited, aligned and optimized. This is irrespective as to whether programming in DIN/ISO or in ShopTurn.

Workpiece simulation for multi-channel machiningBy using simulation, with SINUMERIK 840D sl, multi-chan-nel machining can be visualized in an outstanding way. The result: higher degree of reliability and safety through 3-D simulation with 3-plane view and volume model of the machined parts – including simultaneous recording in automatic operation. Simulation also offers comprehen-sive monitoring and optimizing options for the multi-channel program by automatically calculating the time required for each machining step.

For multi-channel machining on

lathes, high cutting volumes must

be removed. Further, for large series

production, short cycle times are

decisive. High-performance and

flexible CNC systems are required to

address these requirements.

Powerful CNC functionsWith just a few parameter entries, intelligent kinematic transformations transform milling machines into turning specialists and lathes into masters of milling applications. In conjunction with additional CNC highlights, such as cross-technology tool management and a state-of-the-art velocity control, completely new CNC applications are opened up – from turning on milling machines up to machining free-form surfaces on lathes.

Standard operationThe standard look & feel of SINUMERIK Operate for all machining technologies allows several technologies to be combined in one machine – of course it goes without saying with the highest degree of standardization regard-ing operating and programming that is expected from SINUMERIK. Further, SINUMERIK technology cycles for drilling, milling, turning and measuring are adapted to the particular multitasking machine. As a consequence, the maximum degree of standardization is obtained for all multitasking machining operations performed on a machine.

Multitasking made easy: Thanks to comprehensive

CNC functions in SINUMERIK and a uniform look and

feel in operation and programming with SINUMERIK

Operate, it is possible to bring highest CNC

performance and user friendliness to multitasking

on lathes.

Advanced Surface gets the most out of the machineAdvanced Surface is synonymous with milling to the phys-ical limits of the machine. State-of-the-art look ahead algorithms and intelligent block compression ensure max-imum machining speed with the highest surface quality and precision – for 3-axis, 3+2-axis and dynamic 5-axis machining operations.

TRAORIUsing the dynamic 5-axis transformation TRAORI, SINUMERIK 840D sl transforms lathes into high-quality milling centers. This allows universal multi-side machining in just one clamping operation. TRAORI also ensures dynamic and at the same time homogeneous orientation of the tool on the workpiece surface, therefore allowing demanding mold making workpieces to be machined – even on lathes!

High Speed SettingsThe user-friendly High Speed Setting cycle simplifies the parameterization of mold making applications: using just a few parameters, SINUMERIK is set to the particular machine task – roughing, finishing or semi-finishing – as well as the required machining tolerance.
