5.10 Synchronous Point
Analysis
If you use more than one slide for your machining
operation, you can coordinate the machining process
with ”synchronous points.”
The ”Synchronous point analysis” analyzes the
mutual dependence of the slides. The bar graph
displays tool changes, synchronous points and
waiting times. Additional synchronous point
information describes the selected point (arrow below
the bar graphic).
Call: The synchronous point analysis is
a subfunction of the time calculation
function.
Select synchronous points:
■
Change slides: by soft key or upward/downward
arrow
■
Next/previous synchronous point: arrow left/right
Synchronous point information:
■
NC program subprogram
■
Active tool
■
The NC block relevant for the selected synchronous
point
■
”tw”: Waiting time at this synchronous point
■
”tg”: Calculated execution time as of program start
