Bar Mode (M50)
Operation and M-functions
Refer to the illustration above.
1. Mode Set - M50:
The “Bar” mode is ZipLoader default, but for consistency with the other modes
you should put M50 in a block by itself just below the program header, and comment it (Bar Mode).
2.
Open Collet & Feed - M11:
Put M11 in the block following the bar stop location, to open the col-
let and start feeding bar. Allow some time (G04) after M11 for the bar to contact the bar stop.
3. Close Collet & Stop Feeding - M10:
When the bar is at the bar stop issue M10 to close the collet
and stop feeding.
4.
Retract briefly - M43:
Put M43 in the block following M10. This will retract the pusher a bit so it
doesn’t rest against the bar during machining.
5.
Load New Bar - M47:
M47 loads a new bar.
Load very first bar by hand
; this allows you to shut
down with partial bar in collet. Put M47 in first sub-routine, which is called by M97.
6.
Eject Remnant - M48:
M48 ejects remnant and returns shuttle to home. Put M48 in the first sub-
routine which is called by M97.
7.
EoB Sub-Routine - M97:
Put M97 block between opening collet to feed (M11) and closing collet
(M10). M97 is conditional jump to sub-routine. If shuttle crosses EoB sensor after M11, program will
jump to first sub-routine to eject remnant and load new bar. If shuttle crosses EoB sensor while in first
sub-routine, second sub-routine will run, halting program and signaling “no more bars in tray”.
Examine the sample program on next page. Use this as a template for your own programs.
