STUDY EXERCISE ON CNC MACHINES

EX. NO: 1
DATE:

Aim:
To conduct a brief study into various aspects of CNC machines

1. The evolution of CNC:

Shortly after world war II, USAF faced with the complex machining of aircraft
components and inspection fixtures to close accuracies on a repetitive basis. During this
time Mr. John Parson was working on a project for developing equipment that would
machine flat templates for inspecting contours of helicopter blades. He succeeded in it and
the proposal for manufacturing such a machine was submitted to USAF in 1948 by Parson
Corporation of Traverse City, Michigan, and resulted in a development contract in 1948.
Parson found that the card reader was too slow and approached MIT to develop a tape
reader and power drive for the proposed machine. The collaboration between Parson and
MIT went into troubles later. USAF then awarded a prime contract to MIT in 1951. The servo
machines laboratory of MIT successfully demonstrated a three motion- milling machine.

The following three successive years witnessed hardware refinements and


development of mathematical functions for tape preparation in 1955. USAF awarded $35
millions for manufacturing approximately 100 CNC machines of various types. Giddings and
Lewis, General Electric and Bendix are the companies who took interest in adopting NC
technology in its early years. The subsequent developments in CNC technology are primarily
attributed to refinements in computer hardware & part programming languages.

2. Difficulties faced by early NC machines


2.1 NC Controller

In a conventional NC system, the control is hardwired and therefore any


modifications of addition in facility call for many changes in the controller, which may or may
not be possible due to limitations of basic configuration.
2.2 Punched Tape

Paper tape is especially fragile and its susceptibility to war and tear makes it to be an
unreliable NC component for repeated use on the shop floor. More durable materials like
miler, Aluminum foil are used to overcome this difficulty. However these materials are also
relatively expensive. Besides this, the tape heeds to be loaded each time and some errors in
reading. If any change in instruction is needed, modification or editing of the tape is also not
possible.

2.3 Tape Reader

It is the least reliable hardware component of the system. NC System breakdowns


are mainly caused by tape readers.

2.4 Management information

The conventional NC System cannot provide timely information on operational


performance to management. Such information might include piece counts, machine
breakdowns and tool changes.

2.5 Non-optimal Speeds and Feeds

The conventional NC does not have facilities to optimize the speeds and feeds during
the machining process. Consequently, the part programmer must plan the cutting conditions
conservatively and this reduces productivity.

3. Canned Cycle

A Canned cycle is a combination of machine movements that perform machining


operations like drilling, milling, boring and tapping. For example, the drilling cycle consists of
the following movements of the tool.
Fast approach to work piece.
Drill at feed rate
Rapid return to initial position.
These movements can be combined to form a cycle and give a code. When this code is
invoked, the machine performs all these operations. The use of canned cycle reduces
programming effort. This also saves the length of the program, thus saving the space
required to store the program.
4. General Machining Features available in a typical CAM Software
Complete integration with other softwares ensuring no discrepancy between
design and machined part.
Choice of cutter simulation, cutter path, cutter tools itself or machined work piece.
Machining output to ISO Standard CL data.
Single or double precision CL data.
Repetitive tasks by command files
Cutting tool database adaptable to company standards.
ATC Support.
Estimation of machining times and tool path length (to establish tool wear).
Manual editing of cutter path at any time.
Efficient machining algorithms for optimum cutter path generation times.

5. Candidature of NC for the industry

When the following conditions are met, NC machines become a candidate for the
production industry.

When
Quantity of parts per setup is small
Parts are complex
Repeated lots occur.
Repeated design changes occur
Minimum lead time is must
Scrapping would be costly
Floor space is at a premium

6. Designation of co- ordinate systems in NC Machines

In an NC System, each axis of motion is equipped with a separate driving source


such as DC motor, stepper motor etc. The three main axes of motion are referred to as X, Y
and Z-axes. The Z-axes is perpendicular to both X and Y-axes in order to create a right hand
co-ordinate system. This is detailed as follows

6.1 Z - Axis
(i) On a work piece-rotating machine, such as a lathe, the Z-axis is parallel to the
spindle, and the positive motions the tool away from the work piece.
(ii) On a tool-rotating machine, such as a milling or boring machine, Z-axis is
parallel to the tool axis, and the positive motion moves the tool away from the
work piece.
(iii) On other machines such as press, a planning machine, Z-axis is
perpendicular to the tool set and the work piece.

6.2 X - Axis

(i) On a lathe, X axis is the direction of tool movement and the positive motion
moves the tool away from the work piece.
(ii) On a horizontal milling machine, the X-axis is parallel to the table.
(iii) On a vertical milling machine, the positive X-axis points to the right when the
programmer is facing the machine.

6.3 Y - Axis

This is the axis left in a standard Cartesian Co-ordinate system.

6.4 Rotational axis

A, B and C axis represent rotating about X, Y and Z respectively.

7. General format of a manual CNC Program

The CNC program block generally contains the following format

N-G-X-Y-Z-A-B-C-F-S-T-M

Where,
N Sequence number of instructions
G- Preparatory function
X, Y, Z, A, B, C Co -ordinate and angular data
F- Feed
S- Spindle speed
T-Tool code
M- Miscellaneous function.

8. Control systems used in CNC Machines

Though there are many control systems in the market, the following are widely used:

(i) Allen Bradley


(ii) Anilam
(iii) Bosch
(iv) Fanuc OM, OT, 18T, 3M, 3TF..
(v) GE 550,1050..
(vi) Heidenhain
(vii) Mazak
(viii) Philips
(ix) Hinumeric
(x) Elpro

9. Execution of part program written in CAPP Language

There are two major classes of part programming languages (Smith and Earns,
1977)
9.1. Machine oriented languages
They create tool paths by doing all the necessary calculations in one computer
processing stage by computing directly the special Co-ordinate data format and the coding
for speed and feed requirements.
9.2. General purpose languages

The computer processing can be broken down to into two stages, viz., a processing
stage and post processing stage. The processing stage creates an intermediate set of data
points called CL data. The following figure illustrates a generalized flow chart for most NC
processors to show the execution of the program written in a language like APT. The
elements in the flow chart are explained of follows

9.3. NC Processor

It is computer application program that accepts as input user oriented language


statements that describe the NC operations to be performed. The translation section
translator symbolic inputs contained in the section performs geometric and trigonometric
calculations required to generate the part surface. The path of the centerline of the cutter is
also calculated here. This section generates the cutter location data.(CL data)
9.4. Post processor
It is also a program that converts the CL data into program blocks, which are used to
machine the component. This is machine tool dependent.
9.5. CL Data

It is the intermediate data points, which represents the co-ordinates of various


machinable features in the work piece. It is a neutral file and acceptable to any post
processor.

10. The requirements of a spindle drive and feed drive

(a) The requirements of a spindle drive motor are


(b) High rotational accuracy
(c) Wide constant power band
(d) Excellent running smoothness
(e) Compactness

(c) Smallest possible positioning increments (typical:1-2 m)
(d) Quick response characteristics (High peak torque)
(e) Integral mounting feedback devices
(f) Low armature inertia
(g) High torque-to-weight ratio
(h) Total enclosed non-ventilated design (TENV)

12.1 Feed drives commonly used in CNC machines

(b) Guide ways
(c) Feed drives
(d) Spindle & spindle bearings
(e) Measuring and feedback systems
(f) Controls, software and operator interface
(g) Tool monitoring

14. CNC machining centers vis--vis CNC machines

Initially the CNC technology was applied on basic metal cutting machines like lathes,
milling machines etc. To increase the flexibility of the machines in handling a variety of
components and to finish them in a single set-up on the same machine, a CNC machining
center for machining prismatic components combining operations like milling, drilling, boring
and tapping. These machining centers are very powerful, heavy-duty production machines
with the capability to change tools using ATC, A which can select any tool automatically, by
the computer program from the tool magazine. A typical tool magazine can contain more
tools of the order to 32 and above.

While vertical and horizontal machining centers could be respectively utilized for
machining only on one face and four faces of the component in a set-up, complete
machining of all five faces of cubical component in a single set up was possible with a
feature to change the spindle configuration automatically from vertical to horizontal and vice
versa, as the case may be, within the programmed cycle. These machines are called
universal machinating centers (UMC). Further, the concept of multi operations was also
entered for machining cylindrical components, which led to the developments of turning
centers.

Result:
Thus the overview and basic function of CNC machine were studied.
