1.1 Fundamentals on the MANUALplus 620
control
The control was conceived for CNC lathes. It is suitable for
horizontal and vertical lathes. The control supports machines with a
tool magazine or tool turret. The tool carrier of horizontal lathes can
be located in front of or behind the workpiece.
The control supports lathes with spindle, one slide (X and Z axis), C
axis or positionable spindle, driven tool, and machines with a Y axis.
The MANUALplus for cycle lathes
On the MANUALplus 620, rework or simple tasks can be done
in the same way as on a conventional lathe. You move the axes
in the normal manner by turning the handwheels. The cycles of
the MANUALplus 620 are available for difficult cuts like tapers,
undercuts or threads. For small and medium-size production runs,
cycle programming will increase your revenue. When machining
the first workpiece, you can store the machining cycles, and
already save valuable time when machining the second workpiece.
For increased requirements and complex machining tasks, you will
benefit from the
smart.Turn programming mode.
MANUALplus for CNC lathes
With the MANUALplus 620, you can position up to four axes, the
traverse paths will be interpolated.
Regardless of whether you are turning simple parts or complex
workpieces, the MANUALplus 620 provides you with the benefits
of graphical contour input and convenient programming with
the
smart.Turn operating mode. Programming with variables,
controlling special machine components, or using externally
created programs is no problem: Simply switch to DINplus. This
programming mode helps you solve all your special tasks. The
MANUALplus 620 supports operations with the C axis in cycle,
smart.Turn and DIN programming. In the Y axis, the MANUALplus
620 supports operations with smart.Turn and DIN programming.
