STUDY EXERCISE ON CNC MACHINES
EX. NO: 1
DATE :
Aim:
To conduct a brief study into various aspects of CNC machines
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.
2.1 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.
Page 3 of 56
2.2 Tape Reader
It is the least reliable hardware component of the system. NC System breakdowns are
mainly caused by tape readers.
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.
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.
Complete integration with other software’s ensuring no discrepancy between design and
machined part.
Choice of cutter simulation, cutter path, cutter tools itself or machined workpiece.
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.
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

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
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.
Though there are many control systems in the market, the following are widely used:
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)
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.
CL Data

11. Spindle drives commonly used in CNC machine tools
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 canters 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.

PROCEDURE:
2. In the Open dialog, navigate to, and open the Corresponding file,
3. In the top right corner of the Edgecam window, click Switch to Manufacture Mode, In
this part, the machining sequence has already been started. Edgecam may ask you to
confirm settings for the code generator. If so, click Cancel.
6. To select the Component Material, click Browse. (You leave the default setting for
Technology Adjustment unchanged.)
7. In the dialog that opens scroll down the list in the All tab, then click Steel - 150 HB to
select it, then click Select. > Click OK to close the Select Technology dialog > You see
a notification dialog about speeds and feeds - click OK in this dialog.
8. On the Operations toolbar click Face Mill Operation. > The status bar prompts you to
'Select closed profiles to machine'. Click on the white part outline to select it, then right-
click to terminate the selection > the face mill operation dialog now now appear,
