PROGRAMMING
MILLPWR ®
The tool path should be proofed prior to attempting to machine a part on MILLPWR .
Most CAD/CAM Software packages have this ability. When a program has been
proofed and loaded into
MILLPWR , lower the knee and dry run the program to verify the
tool path and speeds and feeds are correct.
Starting and Stopping a G-code Program
Always start the program from a place in the program where the feed rate, X-, Y-, and
Z-axis position are known, such as a tool step. Alternate starting points can be pro-
grammed by placing the proper code in the desired locations.
Pressing the GO button will cause MILLPWR to begin executing the current G-code pro-
gram. Always insure the program step highlighted is an appropriate starting point.
When a program is running, pressing the STOP button or the remote pendant will cause
the program and all axis motion to pause. Pressing the remote pendant switch again or
the
GO button will cause the program to resume. Pressing the STOP button a second
time will halt the program execution.
