3.10.1 Simulation
The function of simulation provides a fast but lifelike simulated processing environment for users.
Running in the mode of simulating, the system will not drive the machine tool to do the relative
actions but only show the processing trace of the cutter in high speed in the trace window. By simulating,
users see moving form of the machine tool in advance, avoiding machine tool damage due to
programming mistakes in processing procedure. And they can also know other additional information.
The steps of simulation are as below:
1)
Press ―↑‖ and ―↓‖ shift keys on [Local Program (A)] screen under [Program] function area to select a
machining file, and then press F1 [Load] to load the file;
Fig. 3-30 Program file window
2) Press F1 [Simulate] under [Motion Trace (B)] sub-function screen of [State] function area to begin
simulation, in which tool machining path can also be viewed. At the same time, such information as
processing range and estimate processing time can be viewed under [Current Program (C)]
sub-function screen.
