Guide for working with cycle 19 WORKING PLANE
1.
Write the program
• Define the tool (unless TOOL.T is active).
• Call the tool.
• Retract the tool so that during tilting no collision between the tool
and the workpiece can occur (fixtures).
• Position angular axes with an L block to the corresponding angle
value.
• Activate a datum shift if desired.
• Define cycle 19 WORKING PLANE; enter angle values of the
angular axes.
• Move all main axes (X, Y, Z) to activate the compensation.
• Program the machining sequence as if it were performed in the
non-tilted plane.
• Cancel cycle 19 WORKING PLANE; enter NO ENT for all angular
axes.
• Reset datum shift (if one was active).
• Position angular axes in the 0° position if required.
2.
Insert the tool
3.
Preparations in the operating mode POSITIONING WITH MANUAL DATA INPUT
Position the angular axis or axes for setting the datum to the corre-
sponding angle value. The angle value is in relation to the datum you
chose on the workpiece.
4.
Preparations in the operating mode MANUAL OPERATION
Set the function for tilting the working plane to ACTIVE with the soft
key 3D ROT for the operating mode MANUAL OPERATION; enter
the angle value of the angular axes into the menu (see page 2-11).
The entered angle values must correspond to the actual position of the angular axis or axes, otherwise the TNC will
calculate an incorrect datum.
5.
Datum setting
• Manually, by touching with the tool as in the non-tilted system (see
• Controlled, with a HEIDENHAIN 3D touch probe (see page 9-11)

7.
Operating mode MANUAL OPERATION
Set the function for tilting the working plane to INACTIVE with the
soft key 3D ROT. Enter angle value 0° into the menu for all angular
axes (see page 2-11)
