Setting up the views
With the simulation windows described in the following you check
not only the turning operation but also the drilling and milling
operations.
XZ view (turning view) : The turning contour is depicted in the
XZ coordinate system. The configured coordinate system is
taken into account (tool carrier in front of/behind the workpiece,
vertical lathes)
XC view (face view) : The displayed coordinate system is a
Cartesian system with the axis designations XK (horizontal) and
YK (vertical). The angle position C = 0° is on the XK axis, the
positive direction of rotation is counterclockwise
ZC view (lateral surface view)
: The contour display and
traverse-path display are oriented to the position on the
unrolled lateral surface
and the Z coordinates. The upper
and lower lines of this
workpiece
correspond to the angular
positions C = –180°/+180°, respectively. All drilling and milling
operations are within the range –180° to +180°
Cycle program or DIN program with workpiece blank
definition: The basis for the unrolled workpiece surface is
the dimensions of the programmed workpiece blank
Cycle program or DIN program without workpiece blank
definition: The unrolled workpiece surface is based on the
dimensions of the standard workpiece blank
CfgSimWindowSize (115200) machine parameter
Single cycle or Teach-in: The basis of the unrolled
workpiece surface is the workpiece section defined by the
respective cycle (expansion in Z and Limit diameter X )
YZ view (side view)
: The contour and the traverse path are
shown in the YZ plane. The side view depicts only the Y and Z
coordinates—not the spindle position
Front face and surface windows operate with a fixed
spindle position. Whereas the machine turns the
workpiece, the
Simulation submode moves the tool.
Simulation of multiple contour groups
Please note the following when working with multiple contour
groups:
In the XZ view (turning view) , the control displays all contour
groups.
In all other views, the control displays the current contour
group.
