CNC Z32 - Programming Guide (LATHES)
- At least one number must be programmed (the zero value is programmed with one or more “0”
characters)
- The division between integer and decimal part may be indicated either with “.” (point) and with “,”
(comma).
All following sample programming are valid ISO lines:
X.1
X .1
X,1
X0,1
X 0.1
X00000,1000
- All numbers cannot have more than 9 significant digits before or after the decimal delimiter.
All following sample programming are valid ISO lines:
X123456789
X0.123456789
X0.0000123456789
X12345.6789
Invalid programming samples:
X1234567.12345
X12345.67890000
X1.00000001234
- A number cannot contain space characters.
2.1.4
Comment lines
A part-program may contain comment lines.
A comment is contained between parenthesis.
Example:
G0 Z100 (initial approach)
2.1.5
G functions (modals and with stop)
The G functions are preparatory functions responsible to prepare the CNC to interpret the following functions.
The number following the G letter identifies the particular function for which the Z32 must be prepared. The value
following the G letter must always be a numeric value (CANNOT be an expression result).
Only some G functions (i.e. only some numeric values) are interpreted and executed from Z32. If a not
implemented G function is programmed, Z32 issues the related alarm.
The functions are those contained in the ISO regulations, with some adaptations. In particular:
•
The initial zero digits of G codes can be omitted (G0 is equivalent to G00)
•
More than one G function can be programmed in the same block: in this case the G functions are
recognized and executed by the CNC as they are encountered in the programmed line: if contrasting
G functions are programmed, the last programmed G function remains active.
•
Some particular G functions require additional data to complete their definition.
•
MODAL
functions are those G functions whose effect will be maintained also in the blocks following the
one where they were programmed: modal G functions are normally deactivated by other special G
functions.
•
Some G functions require the machine STOP: the profile must be completely defined when they are
executed. In this case no contouring with open profile, or contouring with radius compensation can be
active.
