A x i o m T o o l G r o u p
Mill Plane: (Surfacing Operation)
:
Performs a near automatic surfacing program where the user enters the X & Y limits. This does not require a tool-
path or the entry of gcode.
There are two types of milling options;
Scan
&
Encircle.
Regardless of the type chosen, this program does not use an origin. It accepts the current position of the bit to be
the starting point (0,0) with all movements based from that location. A
“soft limits error”
may occur if the limits
entered cannot be supported from current location.
*It is suggested that a test run be performed with the Z axis elevated above the material*
To use the
Mill Plane
function:
1-
Select
Mill Plane
. Then choose either
Scan
or
Encircle
.
a.
Scan
performs a surfacing program that follows a parallel path to either the X or the Y axes.
i.
Choose either the X-axis or the Y-axis.
ii.
Enter the X and Y axis dimensions.
b.
Encircle
performs a surfacing program that moves in a circular pattern around the X and Y axes,
slowly working its way inward.
i.
Choose either
AC
or
C
for movement.
1.
AC
= counterclockwise.
2.
C
= clockwise.
ii.
Enter the X and Y axis dimensions.
2-
Operation should begin immediately. Be sure that the Z axis height and RPM are properly set before using
this operation.
Calculate Work Time:
This will operate much the same as Time Estimation tooling found within the chosen CAD/CAM Design Software.
However, this function will allow you to calculate the operating time of a specific file based upon the file parameters
in the toolpath and the machine controller settings. (
Will not factor in Speed Scale adjustments
).
Find Break No:
Like both
Resume Work
(which is also found in the Advanced Process menu) and using
Run/Pause + (1-8)
, to display
the
Save Break
locations.
While similar to the
Run/Pause + (1-8)
option, this function serves two purposes. It will both find the line number of
a breakpoint for a specific file or gives the option to resume working from that point.
(Unlike the Save Break menu, this will not allow for the selection a different line to resume work from)
.
To use the Find Break No. option:
1-
Select
Find Break No
.
a.
Select the file (either from Udisk or Internal memory).
b.
Prompt will give the following instructions. (Use X+/- buttons to scroll)
i.
Press
OK
to resume from existing break
ii.
Press any other key to display the break line number only.
c.
Approve speeds to begin machining if applicable
