In programming, the lower left hand corner of the sheet is considered as the origin (0” 0” location) and
dimensions are programmed from that origin point. X and Y dimensions are entered in inches with three
trailing zeros* or by using a decimal point. An X value of 1 inch would be written as X1000, or Xl., a value
of Xl without a decimal point would be equivalent to .OOl inch. The control would move three places to
the left of a given dimension unless a decimal is used.

X dimensions are considered positive to the right of the origin and negative to the left.
Y dimensions are positive up from the.origin and negative down from the origin.

*Note: Machines with! 200B or 3000C controls must use three trailing zeros. Decimal degrees are two
places.

After the G90 command is entered, then all co-ordinates are relative to the origin. (G90 will stay in effect
until changed by G91 incremental command.) G90 need not be entered on every line.

When a G91 incremental command is entered in a program, then the X and Y co-ordinates are incremen-
tal from the last hole punched (G91 will stay in effect until changed by G90). G91 need not be entered on
every line.

Note: 200B control

must use the
above example.

Note: Each hole is incremental from the last hole punched, so hole 3 is incremental from hdie 2 and hole 4
is incremental from hole 3. If one hole is mislocated, all of the following holes programmed incrementally,
would be mislocated.

Note: Regardless of absolute or incremental value, the value of X orY coordinate, which does not change,
can be omitted.

 G50 PROGRAM END, HOME RETRACT .*-
,-
The 50 command is entered on a line by itself at the end of the program. This command brings the carriage ‘i
to the origin as specified in the last G92 statement and signals the control that the program has ended.
Offset values (G93 & G98) are cancelled and the program is ready to start again.

A SIMPLE PROGRAM

&hen preparing a program the following general procedure is recommended:

1. Begin in the upper right hand comer to save approach travel time to the turret.
2. Punch small holes first, then progress to larger holes and notching. Forming operations suchas
lowering should be done last.
3. Axis movements are generally more rapid than turret indexing, so all holes of the same size should be
punched before indexing to the next tool.

Note:
1. Only the values whicf! change need be entered fri>m line to line.
2. Punching smaller holes first can eliminate inadequacies in certain situations.
3. Program louvers in one direction only to eliminate possible damage.
4. Striker movement is normally as fast as table positioning.

 CLAMPSENSOR

The clamp sensor is a safety ,feature of the machine which prevents punching of the work clamps. -,
The sensor should be turned on when a new program is placed in the machine. With the sensor
“ON”, the machine will position the material, but will not punch a hole in the clamp sensor area.
For holes in the clamp sensor area the operator checks visually and overrides the sensor if the
clearance between the punch and work clamp is adequate. If collision is possible the part should
be re-programmed or the clamp position changed. After the program has been proofed the sensor
is turned “OFF’ and on subsequent runs of the program the machine will punch automatically in
the clamp sensor area.

As an extra feature, the machine automatically operates as if the clamp sensor is “ON” when a
program is first run through the machine.

Example: Any new’ program called out of memory or anytime you edit a program, the machine
will act like the sensor is “ON”.

When A station is punching When A station is punching,

x i

Overriding the sensor allows punching in the clamp sensor area. The operator should never
override the sensor if there is any doubt as to whether the punch will miss the work clamp or not. .
The work clamps have the ability to pass through the turrets; however, when punching occurs
close to the work clamp, distortion may occur because the work clamp is raised up over an adja- ~,-
cent die button as illustrated in Fig. 4. The extent of distortion depends on material thickness and : ,I
the oroximitv of the work clamo to the nunch center.
u. s. AMADA, LTD.
Sec. I Pg. 12
 CLAMP SENSOR (Continued)
When clamping the material is impossible due to the high density of holes along the edge of the
sheet, the following opitons may be considered:

1. Use enough to avoid clamps.

2. Use repositionin~during the program to move the work clamps to a previously. punched section
of the sheet edge.
3. Program a double part:

Part #1 is punched and returned to the home position and flipped so that running the same pro-
gram will punch part #2. Separation of the parts may be accomplished on the CNC Punch press
by using a slotting tool or by shearing after punch completion.

““.: 4. Program a multiple part

 MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS /.
M99 punch delay, (COMA only) change in number of punching strokes
When “M99” is entered, the hit rate is changed from the lower hit rate to the standard hit rate.
This mode is effective in the memory or tape operating modes only.

l&ample:

M99

Notes:
1. M99 must be entered on a block by itself.
2. G50 cancels M99.
3. M99 should be used for material .125” thick or less.
4. 1980 controls and before, M99 will slow down the punching.
5. New 6M controls on Comas will read M99 and punch faster.
6. Comas are made for heavier material’s and, therefore, default to the slower speed.

MOO Program Stop

This command is used to stop the machine for slug or part removal.

The block number is displayed on the control and is sometimes valuable for program checking.

Any number from 1 to 9999), preceded by-the letter “Nh may be used to identify blocks of data

Notes: .

1. Sequence numbers may be omitted if desired. We recommend their use at key program blocks
to aid in identification of certain areas of the program.
2. Zero’s directly following “N” may be omitted.
i.e.: NO001 may be written Nl

Block Delete
When the BLOCK DELETE switch on the controi panel is turned “ON”, the command to the
block preceded by the slash is disregarded.

If the switch is turned.“OFF”, the command inthis block is not disregarded but executed.

Example:

G90X13000Y84001203 ,
G91X20000
/x4000Y40001304 -
G90X23000Y12000T304 . j

In cases where the block-next to BLOCK DELETE is iven an incremental command, the position
when the switch is “ON” differs from that when it is “0 F F’. If the block with the / character includes .
‘. a T command, then the following block must also include a T command (see the above example).

” If blocks of data are to be omitted on time and not omitted the next time the block delete function may
. be used. A slash (/) is placed at the beginning of the block to be skipped. This will then be executed
or ignored depending upon the condition of the block delete push button on the CNC control. When

 MISCELLANEOUS J?UNCTIONS (Continued)

the button is “ON”, the block following the slash will be ignored. When the button is “OFF”, the slash ,:,::-y
is ignored and the block is executed normally.

Example:

Notes:
1. Block delete should not be used in incremental positioning because the reference position will
be different when the switch is “ON” than it was’when it was “OFF”.
. 2. If the block to be skip d contains a tool command, the tool change will be ignored when the
block delete is “ON”. Ele tool command should b.e repeated in the block after the block delete
i.e.:

MO8 Start of punching completion signal delay.
MO9 End of punching completion signal delay.
By delaying the punch completion signal, the beginning of X or Y movement is also delayed. When
extrusion or louverin etc. is erformed, more punching time is necessary for the tooling to escape
from the workpiece a Pter punt ii-mg. The delayed punch completion signal is needed to give the punch
enough time to retract before the work piece moves.

Notes:
1. F setting will remain as rogrammed until another value of F is programmed or G50 is read.
2. The value of F can be aBjusted on the NC console..If the rogrammed value of F and the value ! : .:
;t;zeon the NC console are drfferenf the machme ~11 Poperate under the slowest speed .-

3. G50 ret&s to Fl.

Normally, it is not necessary to change the value of F during a program. When the sheets being
processed are large and heavy, it is advisable to rogram the feed rate at F2 or F3. For large
sheets of l/4” material, a feed rate of F4 would l!e recommended F3 and F4 also slow turret
rotation.

The dwell function is usually used in conjunction with a work chute command.

M80 - Work Chute Open

MS1 - Work Chute Flose
Must be programmed on a line by itself.

Notes:
1. Maximum part size for Work Chute if 7.75” x 7.75” (PEGA II is 13.78” x 13.78”).
2. Piece arts drop through the Work Chute by gravity so partin tool selection should be on the
outsiBe 1.25” track stations to locate parts over chute area be fore separation.
3. Machine should be slowed to allow the part ample time to drop through the chute (MO8 F2).

Alternative method: G70 command to push part into work chute.

PROGRAM I.D. NUMBER O----
When a program is to be stored in memory, a number(l to 8999), may be entered after the letter

PREPARING A MACHINE TAPE

Machine ta es are generally prepared using either AMACOM, a Flexowriter or a tele
machine. l--Ii e machine tape is 1 inch wide, 8 channel tape with either EIA or ASCII coTii (EIA
is a code using an odd number of holes for each character, ASCII uses an even number of ioles
for each character).

?.. PROGRAMMlNG PROCEDURE
.~ . ,j
1. Check tool used and station number
Example:

6”dia; round hole nibbling with a 2.5” dia. punch

20” x 24” s uare hole shear proof punching with a 2” square punch
Check if al9 tools can be loaded in the turret

2. Determining processing method

Many small parts to be punched can be produced from one large sheet. Shearing may-be per-
formed after punching, thus, saving time and a second handling to the material.

3. Determining clamp position

Make the area as large as possible.
Make the distance between clamps as long as possible.
Check dead zone (see Dead Zone Dimensions).
Be sure a clamp is not under the punch at time of punching.
Remedy when clamp enters dead zone.
1. When testing a program on the NC, turn on the “Override” toggle switch on the carriage
base panel.
2. When one of the clamps comes into the dead zone; X, Y, movement stops at once.
3. Be sure not to punch clamps.
:4. Once you are sure the ciamps will not be punched, press “Confirmation” button. Program
will continue.
5. If it appears that the clamps might be punched, check and modify the clamp position.

4: Determining punching procedure

Make-a decision taking into consideration processing time and accuracy.
‘Decrsron of eneral procedure:
1. Begin in t1 e u per right hand corner and finish with the upper right hand of a drawing to
save travel anB retract time.
2. Begin with small holes, then square holes and notching in that order; extrusion and
countersinking come last.
3. In multiple-piece processing, parting should be done last.
4. Group tools of compatible size in same striker area.

Mark punching order numbers in the drawing.

5. Calculating coordinAtes
Calculate dimensions down to one-thousandth, degrees to one-hundredth.

6. Checking
Check the clamp position, punching order and coordinate values.

 G70 PUNCH OFF
Allow the table to be moved to a specified location by means of X and/or Y command(s) with no
punch activity.
G70 can be used with either G90 (absolute or G91 (incremental) modes.
i.e. G90G70XlO.YlO. or G91G70XlO. 210.
G70 can also be used to set a new machine on in when used in conjunction with a new G92
statement. This feature is used for limiting tab Pe travel when punchmg narrow strips in the Y
direction. The format is as follows:
G70Y30. Moves table to this location)
$+9&y”. 4:O. Estabhshes tins posrtton as new table origin) - -. .~
-- B-s-b- (Punching command
G50 (Returns table to new set origin of 4 30.)
Note: At the end of production run, the machine must be returned to the home origin by using the
retract mode.
After a G70 is executed, the table does not stop; the next command is read and the punch
responds to the new programmed command.
The primary use for the G70 is to position the table without punching as a reparation for a-
repositioning command. Table position is important to allow existing hold aowns to support the
material during the reposition process. Material size and hole locations must be considered.
G72 PATTERN ORIGIN STATEMENT
G90G72X...Y...
G91G72X...Y...
G72 is used to locate the coordinates of pattern origin.
Example:
G90G72X20000Y 12006
When a pattern command is given to the next block. pattern processing
takes place with X20”, Y12” as the pattern origin.
The G72 command will be-covered in detail over the next few pages.
The command can be made both at an absolute value and at an incremental value.
G72 simply selects a &ordinate; neither positioning nor punching is made.
The block-after G72, a pattern command must always be given.
Never command M or T function in the block for G72.
Never program as follows:
G90G72X12000Y8000T20 1
G91G72X6000Y10000M00 \ -

In case an incremental value of X, Y is given after a pattern of command, it must refei from the
point of pattern completion.

G27 REPOSITIONING

Format: G27X+ or G27X-

Turret

Repositioning
Hold Downs
\ .~

Figure 5
..
I: The sequence of repositioning is as follows:

1. Work holders secure the material (both work holders should contact material).
2. Work clamps release.
3. Carriage backs away .094 inch.
4. Carriage moves programmed amount in X axis. (Positive X value repositions as shown in Fig.
5, negative X value will cause repositioning in reverse direction.)
5. Carriage moves in .094 inch to original position, work clamps reclamp material.
6. Work holders release material.

Note: Over-travel error may occur during a repositioning move. Example: If the X axis is at the
position X30000 prior to repositioning, the maximum repositioning move is G27X30000. The
amount to be repositioned with the G27 must be less than or equal to the X axis position before
the G27 command.

Example: ,
G70X30000Y 15000 G70X30000Y 15000
G27X25000 (Right) G27X35000 ’ (Wrong) ’ i
Overtravel 1
Note: MINIMUM Y VALUE for repositioning is 5 inches.

: A. If a value less than Y5.000 is used, the override light will come on and the machine will stop.
B. Pressing the START button will restart the machine and continue operation.
CAUTION: DAMAGE MAY OCCUR. A clamp may hit the turret or a holddown pad.

With repositioning, the programming limits relative to the X axis are changed by-the programme ,>-
amount.
Example: G27X20000 (For Coma 50/50/50)
1. Before repositioning, punching area is 0:’ to 50” X value.

70”

2. After repositioning (positive 20 inches), punching area is 20” to 70” X value.

After repositioning, absolute dimensions are still relative to the origin. The control automatically
compensates for the repositioning move. Repositioning may be in a positive or negative direction.

When G72 is neglected, the pattern origin (22”, IS”) is also punched.
MOO or MO1 should be commanded when a workpiece slug remains.

The pattern origin is normally located in the upper right-hand corner, to make scrap removal
easier. Therefore both I and J will be negative..
Note: Both I and J lengths in the X and Y directions, respectively, must be at least three times as.

2 666 WITH “K” (No slug rectangular cutout)
:\
The G66 command can be used to punch out a square or rectangular cutout with no slug left by
inserting a K command within the G66 line. The “K” command would be used to describe the
height of the required cutout.

FORMAT G&j I---J--p--Q--K---T---C

I: X axis length of window from origin point. Positive only.

J: Angle from 0 degrees, positive only CCW from 0 degrees. _
Tool length, positive or negative, (dimension in I direction).
;: Tool width,. positive or negative (dimension in K direction).
K: Y axis width of window from origin point. Positive only.
T: Tool station number.
c: If auto index is used: tool angle input.

Normally the I dimension will be the longer dimension of the cutout.

Notes:
1. This function is applicable only to machines with 6M Fanuc controls that use 931, Version 10
software or higher. The software version may be found by powering down the control, turn on
control and look at the CRT screen. A number next to the work version will appear. That is
the control software version. All versions of M31 controls are capable of this command.
2. 200B and 3000C controls do not have provisions for this function.
3. G66 processes a window and leaves no scrap, proper tool overlap is provided by the command,
. when “K” is used.
4. The ‘value of “I” must be at least 1.5 times the value of “P”.
5. The value of “K” must be at least 1.5 times the value of “Q”.
6. When it is desired to process a shear-proof slot; “K” should be omitted.
7. A square or rectangle punch may be used, however, square punches are recommended for
better tool life.
8. Small punches should not be used when processing large windows, excessive punching time
results. .’ ,
9. The sign of “P” determines the offset direction: i.e., positive offsets the punch to the left of the
“I” length for pattern origin, negative offsets the pattern to the right.
10. The sign of “P” and “Q” must be the same.

 AUTO-INDEX PROGRAMMING

The Auto-Index program is used to control the angular orientation of punches and dies in punch --
presses equipped with the Auto-Index device.

X-Y- TOO0 Cf

Auto-Index punching is performed after the X, Y, T and C axis have been positioned. In the C
axis instruction, the value and sign of C determines the angle of the punch and die witlr~~w~.@;
.-WIG-c..* ‘-
.~
- -
T: Auto-Index station number I \+c

The angular input must be in the absolute angular value, referenced to the X axis. The minimum
angular input is 0.01 degrees.

When Auto-Index instructions are used.within pattern instructions, the Auto-Index tool angle will
be automatically compensated in the tangential direction with the progress of hole punching.

When Auto-Index instructions are used within the following instructions, the Auto-Index instruc-
tions will be ignored and machine operation will continue: G92, G93, G72, G27, G98, G75, G76,
G04, U, V, and W..

For stations other than Auto-Index stations, attempting to use a C axis instruction will cause a
program error.

When a program block with instructions to use a different station follows the Auto-Index punching
instructions, the C axis will be returned to its zero degree position after the punching operation at
the Auto-Index station is finished, the next station will then be selected.

Macro Storing
Using the macro function, the contents of multiple blocks of data can be stored within the memory
of NC as a single macro data and ,can be recalled whenever required. To store multiple blocks of
data, enter the address letter ~~$&~.~$vo,.di,,@.~~ As a single
block’ preceding the multiple’%ocks enter the%%&s letter “V” Gig the same two digit numeral
as used for the address letter “U” as a single block.

The two-digit numeral following ‘!U” or “V” is called-the “macro number.” This macro number
comes in the following three types:

01 - 59: The block 0f.dat.a between “U” and “V” are stored while they are simultaneously
being executed, when parameter 435 equals zero.

60 - 89: The blocks of data between “U” and “V” are only stored into the memory.
-..
90 - 99: Storing of multiple macros is accomplished.

Macro Recalling
The multiple blocks of data which were stored by “U” and “V” can be recalled by the address letter
I
“W” with the same numeral that was used at “U” and “V”:
Example:

MEMORY CAPACITY FOR MACRO (Macro numbers Oi to 89)

The maximum memory capacity for macro is 2660 characters. One character equals:
One letter (CL X, Y, T, M, etc.) or -
One numeral (1, 2, 3, . . . . 0) or
One sysmbol (CR, I, F, -, /, etc.)

 MULTIPLE PART PARAMETERS

‘Y: Setting of parameters (on the control operators console)

0: When set at zero, it is an indication that G75 and G76 will not be used. All macro numbers 1
to 59 will be executed while simultaneously being stored in macro memory.

i: When set at one, trial punching of the lower left hand part is performed. This is useful for
checking one part in a G98 multiple part program to save time and material.

2: When set at two, the worksheet is processed in multiple part format, but the lower left hand
part is omitted. This will complete the sheet started by the trial punching. -~

3: When set at three, multiple part programs execute normally. This setting is used for produc-
tion running.

NOTE: When using G98 to produce multiple parts, parameter #435 must not be set at zero or an
alarm condition will result.

MULTIPLE PART PUNCHING G98

G98X...Y...I...J...P...K...
X = Reference point for lower left hand part in X axis

Y = Reference point for lower left hand part in Y axis

I = Distance between parts in X direction (add slotting tool)

J = Distance between parts in Y direction (add slotting tool)

P = Number of parts in the X axis - excluding the bottom left part

K = Number of parts in the Y axis - excluding the bottom left part

Example 1. G98X100qY300018000J5000P3K2

0 = X Y reference point

Notes: ,
1. This command establishes the reference points for the multiple part processing.and performs
no punching.

2. When microjoint, shake-a-part processing is desired, it is necessary to add the width of the _
slotting tool to the I and-J values. See examples for clarity.

 MULTIPLE PART PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES
-1
-i,
,! Introduction:
.,’
We have seen in previous sections of this manual how more than one part may be fabricated on a
sheet by using U# -,V# MACROS to store program information and using G93 for moving the
zero reference pointto other locations. While this eliminates the need to write out the part
program over and over; we must still specify an offset (G93) and macro tail (W) for each tool
used, times the number of partson the sheet,

The G98 Multiple Part Set-Up Command gives us a way to tell the Fanuc Control how to find the
zero reference point of each part on the sheet using only one block of information. Then the
original part program can be repeated, one tool at a time, over the entire sheet, starting at any of
the four corners of the sheet.

The three basic steps to creating a Multiple Part program are as follows:

1. Set up 54e G98 layout. To do this, three things are needed:

A. The part size in the X direction.
B. The part size in the Y direction.
C. The sheet size that the part is on.

2. Program the original part.

(one tool at a time in each U# - V# pair).

3. Punch all the parts located by the G98 statement. This is done by telling the machine three
things:
-..__ A. Which way to punch (G75 or G76)
B. What to punch (W#)
C. Where to Start (Q#)

All three components will be on one line as information, i.e. G75WlQ4.

 SHAKE-A-PART PROGRAM METHOD
,,/-- -
Ten Steps For Programming Microjoint Parts

1. Set up fbr multiple parts WV

2. Program the original part (one tool at a time, with each tool in a
separate macro, U# - V#)

3. Punch all parts (according to the G98 layout, using G75

and/or G76) -. -

4. Set up for slotting in one direction (G98 assuming the slot is the part),

5. Program the slot (U# - V#)

6. Punch the slot (according to the new G98 layouf using

G75 or G76)

7. Set up for slotting in the other direction ’ (G98 assuming the other slot is the part)

8. Program the other slot (U# - V#)

9. Punch the slots (according to the last G98 layout, using

G75 or G76)

10. End of program PO?

You have processed an entire shake-a-part sheet. Following these ten steps will make program-
ming micro-joint parts much easier.

 EXECUTION OF PUNCHING (Continued)
When punching multiple products in a single
- horizontal row:
only G7jcan be used.
:::: only 1 or 2 can be used.

When punching multiple products in a single vertica .I row: _

only G76 can be used.
g::: only 1 or 3 can be used.

The orily “?” that can be used with either G75 or G76 is “Ql” when punching a single row of parts.

Combination method of G75, G76 and Ql to Q4

1. Either G75 or G76 must be selected in order that the distance of movement be minimized.
2. If the-processing of a program between a pair of U and V starts from the upper right corner
(Q4) and ends at the upper left corner, the next processing between the next pair of U and V ;.
should start at the uppper left corner, (Q3), in order to guarantee efficient movement.
3. When cutting the outside edge in the process of punching multiple products, it is desirable to
start the punching at the upper portion of the sheet and move lower in sequence. For this
procedure, enter the command of:

G75W#Q4 or Q3

u90 to u99

If the starting point specified by Q is unchnged and either G75 or G76 is to be used alone, it is
possible to represenf multiple sets of U# and V# by a single U# and V#. The macro number for
this function is 90 to 99

Setting of Multiple Part Punching Program

Parameter #435 (Setting Data Page #02) ’

0: Programs which do not use software ‘for multiple part punching (does not use G98). -
1: Trial punching (Punches all of Part in corner Ql).
2: Remaining punch work after trial punching (all parts except the one in corner Ql).
3: Entire punch work of multiple part punching.

Note: When G98 is used perimeter 435 must be 1.2 or 3.

 SUBPROGRAMS
When programs contain patterns repeated frequently, they can be stored in advance in the ‘:;
memory as subprograms. /I

Subprogram format:
1. Store the subprogram with a program number, i.e.: 01234
2. Write the program (remember that offsets (G93) can be used to locate the subprogram. No G92
statement is required when using subprograms).
-
3. End the subprogram with M97.
4. Recall the subprogram with M96 P1234 (subprogram number must correspond with the number
stored).

Set Buttons

The set portion of the control only has two p,lgec: in it. The first page has seven components.
1. The number of sheets processed.
2. Power on is the actual time the machine is turned on.
3. R-unning time is the actual running time of your sheets. The clock starts when the table leaves
the limit switch and runs until the table returns home and shuts off the clock. __
4. Decimal Point Input. Here we have two options to choose from:
A. 0: When set at zero the machine will look at all your inch dimensions and assume a
whole number (i.e. 10 is read as 10000 or 10.). Angles will be read as complete
degrees (i.e. 90 is 9000 or 90.). So, in this zero mode the machine-adds three places
for your mch dimensions and two places for your angles.
Caution: In’ this mode you must use a decimal point for fractions of an inch and from minutes
of a degree (i.e. .250 for a quarter-inch and for 30 minutes) after the conversion it
would be wrrtten 5 or 50.
If you just put X250 without the decimal point the machine will give you an X-axis
over travel alarm because the machine ~111 try to move to two-hundred and fifty
inches away.
B. 1: In this mode the machine will carry out three places for all inch dimensions and two
places for all angles when you leave off the decimal point,
i.e. twenty inches (20”) is read .020 not 20.
i.e. ninety degrees is read .90 not 90.
5. Inch/Metric: Here you can choose to program with either inch or metric dimensions.
6. Punch Code: EIA or IS0
7. Macro delete.,
This completes the first page. Now, push the button titled “Next Page.” On the second page WC
have a hit counter for every tool in our turret and a total hit counter for all the tools combined.
Note: To set or reset any of the components on these two pages, do the following:
,
Push the MD1 button.
Move your cursor with any of the four arrow keys to whatever you want to change. Once-you have
moved your cursor to where you need it. Push the data keys for the number required:

Note: If the Decimal Point Input, in the set age, is set to zero you can leave off the decimal
point. The machine will look at the Xl4 and e 10 as whole numbers.
Caution: If you want to move to a fractional dimension (i.e. l/2”) you must use the decimal
point (i.e. .5). If you don’t, the machine will look at it as five-thousand (5000) inches
and that is a definite over-travel problem.
