VMC Slot Programing

The document discusses different canned cycles for slot milling in CAD/CAM, including linear slot milling using G74 and linear and circular slot milling with reciprocating plunge cuts using G210 and G211. It provides examples of the parameters used for the G74 cycle and assigns a lab to have students write a CNC program to machine linear and circular slots on a part using the appropriate canned cycles and simulation software.

Cycles for Slot Machining

1. G74 LINEAR SLOT MILLING

 Set-up clearance P01 (incremental value):


Distance
between tool tip (at starting position) and
workpiece surface.

 Milling depth P02 (incremental value): Distance


between workpiece surface and bottom of pocket

 Plunging depth P03 (incremental value): Infeed


per cut. The tool will drill to the depth in one
operation if the plunging depth is equal to the
depth or the plunging depth is greater than the
depth

 Feed rate for plunging P04: Traversing speed


during penetration.

 1st side length P05: Slot length; specify the sign


to determine the first milling direction.

 2nd side length P06: Slot width.

 Feed rate for horizontal machining P07:


Traversing speed of the tool in the working plane.

Example: NC block

2. G210 LINEAR SLOT WITH RECIPROCATING PLUNGE-CUT
3. G211 CIRCULAR SLOT WITH RECIPROCATING PLUNGE-CUT
Applications:

Assignment: Choose and draw a part with linear (horizontal / vertical / inclined) and circular slots.
Place all necessary dimensions. Write a CNC program on the Heidenhain simulator that machines the
slots using the respective canned cycles. Also choose tools and cutting conditions appropriately. Write
a report including the part drawing, the list of the program and simulation results.
