ITnc 530 control, Engraving Cycle 225

[Tinhman]

Is any one using it?

I would like to set it up for serialization.

Is it possible to get it done on DMU50?

 

Thanks in advance

Hello Tinhman I have never heard of cycle 225 if its not in your cycle def I'd say its an option.

There are post regarding to engraving seriel numbers on this forum.

Hi DavidB,

Yes, we do have this option but we just dont know how to set it up for engraving serial numbers.

our machine control is Heidenhain ITNC 530.

 

Thanks for the reply.

Did you get it running?

[Tinhman]

No, I did not.

Please help Guys.

 

Happy Friday.

Our loaner machine that came in last week has it. We actually have a job that requires this so we will get it figured out in the next day or so. I'll keep you posted.

I needed a prefix in front of my serial # so there's a little more code than it would be for just a plain serial #. I used two files. One .tab file to store my incrementing # in and the .h file with the cycle and other call info.

 

This will produce the text "PREFIX-1", "PREFIX-2", etc., etc...... along a radius arc.

 

The .H file is:

 

0 BEGIN PGM SERIAL-TEST INCH

1 BLK FORM 0.1 Z X-1 Y-1 Z-1

2 BLK FORM 0.2 X+1 Y+1 Z+0

17 FN 27: TABWRITE 1 /"CURRENT" = Q198

This is the .TAB file:
