DMG / MORI SEIKI

[tntbill9]

HI ALL,

 

I am very well familiar with CNC mill with fanuc and fadal controls.

Now I am a newbie of running DMG / MORI SEIKI horizontal mill with Deckel Maho controler.

 

When I post the program out, it looks like this

 

...

...

 

G0 SUPA Z-1 D0
 

...

...

 

M9

G0 SUPA Z-1 D0

When it runs to this line of code, machine gets alarm.

NC/SYF/ASUP2.SYF

REPOSA RMIBL

RET

 

I had tried to change Z-1. OR Z-.1. It didn't help.  Still get that same alarm message.

 

So what is G0 SUPA Z-1 D0?  (do I have to zero return all axis like the other fanus control does every morning?)

 

What should I do to fix this problem?

 

Thanks in advance for all of your helps.

 

Bill

Hello I am also new to this machine and I'm sure you will get better advice from others. My programs output that code with Z0, I take it to be similar to G91 G28 Z0 to send Z axis home.

Here is what my endof tool code looks like.

All that I can think of is that the D0 might need to be before the Z on the SUPA line.

 

N130 M9
N131 M5
N132 G0 SUPA D0 Z-.1
N133 G0 SUPA X-19. Y-6.

The command G00 SUPA Z0 D0 positions the spindle head "up" to its machine zero position. The Siemens' SUPA (suppress all [offsets]) has been used instead of G53 because with Siemens, G53 does not cancel the base offset.

D0 is tool zero, (no tool)

I have always used SUPA Z0

Thanks all again.

 

I still have question for Zoober please. So why my post posts out Z-1 instead of Z0 or Z-.1 ???  What is Z-1 or Z-.1? 

 

I am progamming a part for op1, runs on B0. and same op1 runs on B180.

 

Do you have a sample of template of Main and Sub programs look like?  Can you shine a light on these programs a little bit?

 

Thanks in advance for all your inputs.

My post actually outputted z0 put I changed to output -.1 because it would hit a soft limit at Z0. Sorry Can't help much about the Subs as I havn't started using them yet. Still a bit green with Siemens code.

It's been a bit since I've programmed the Siemens, so I don't have any templates handy. The main is a *.mpf file, the sub is a *.spf file. That's how the control likes them.

As for the Z value, some machines have a tool change height of Z-1. And maybe why that's why the post was set up that way???

Your MTB would be the place to get that info, along with a couple samples of main and sub calls. From there, I could help a bit with the post.

Hi all,

 

I went back to work today and put this one in the machine.

 

G0 SUPA Z0 D0
 

Still gave me an alarm messege liked Axis Z1 software limit switch.

 

Is there anyway that I can find myselt where, how and what the Z1 limit switch is? So that I can fix my post.

 

Thanks all.

 

Have a nice weekend.

Contact the applications department of your machine builder. Ask them to send you sample proven code for the machine. Use that to reverse engineer what you need for your machine.

[Craig-B]

Do you have any programs that currently run on that machine or from the MTD, if so post an us the example and emastercam guys will be able to help you more with where to make the change.

DP. Double Post.

We had to but Z-.1 to not hit the soft limit and get it to work.
