Chapter 4

GuardLogix Configuration

The CNC Work Cell example has two applications (gantry and machining) and has the following run
sequences.

Table 5 - Gantry Application – Application1

Table 6 - Machining Application – Application2

For the CNC Work Cell application example and in the following text, the Gantry Application is Application1,
and the Machining Application is Application2. Application1 contains all logic for simulating motion of the
gantry, and Application2 contains all logic and commands for both CNCs.

Step

Simple X-Y Gantry Run Sequence Simulation

1

Verify/Ready

2

Pick – part in in-feed

3

Drop – drop in drilling center

4

Dwell – let drilling happen

5

Pick – when done, pick up part

6

Drop – drop in machining center

7

Dwell – let machining happen

8

Pick – when done, pick up part

9

Drop – drop into out-feed

10

Repeat

Step

Machining, Two CNCs Run Sequence Simulation

1

Verify/Ready

2

Get first gantry drop – begin drilling

3

Perform drilling execution

4

When done, let gantry pick part

5

On next gantry drop – begin machining

6

Perform machining execution

7

When done, let gantry pick part

8

Repeat
