- | ===== Operating Procedures ===== | ||
- | - Program tool paths using a SOLIDWORKS add-in | ||
- | - Put tools in tool holders | ||
- | - Set tool offsets using tool probe | ||
- | - Set fixture offset(s) with touch probe (usually G54) | ||
- | - Load program | ||
- | - Check that tool numbers in program match tools in machine | ||
- | - Check that appropriate fixture offset is loaded | ||
- | - Load stock in the machine | ||
- | - Proof the part (test the program with air cuts). One easy way to do this is to add a height to the G54 Z value sufficient to make sure that all cuts will be above the top of the part surface. | ||
- | - Use rapid and feed override at the beginning of the program to make sure that the initial Z axis moves are safe. You can also use single block mode | ||
- | - Keep your hand close to the emergency stop in case the program doesn’t do what you expect. | ||
- | - Reset G54 to the correct value. | ||
- | - Run the program for the first time - follow the precautions in step 10 to make sure that nothing unexpected happens. You can adjust the feed rate override as needed. | ||
