1. BASIC CONCEPTS............................................................................................................................. 24
Refer to operation manual for further information on this subject, chapter B, point 3: SELECTING THE
COORDINATE SYSTEM......................................................................................................................... 24
If the machine is provided with a subhead, C1 would be for the main head and C2 for the subhead.....25
Cutting speed formula:........................................................................................................................... 25
Vc= Cutting speed.................................................................................................................................. 25
D= Part standard diameter..................................................................................................................... 25
n= Rpm limit........................................................................................................................................... 25
As you can see, two variants are available “,C” and “,A” with a leading comma to differentiate them from
C- and A-axis........................................................................................................................................... 25
New correction values must be entered when the tool is moved because of a hit.................................. 26
Refer to operation manual for further information on this subject, chapter B, point 4: OPERATION
PROCEDURE FOR MANUAL TOOL PRESETTER INTEGRATED IN THE MACHINE.......................... 26
When a tool is placed on the subhead (the case may be in which double toolholders are used for the
head and the subhead) keep in mind that correction values are ? 21, that is, for position 1 the correction
value will be 21, for position 2, 22, and so on.......................................................................................... 26
It can be also placed in other location, even though it is advised not to do it, as following up and verifying
the program would much more difficult and you should continuously calculate the difference between this
position and workpiece end..................................................................................................................... 26
We advise you to enter workpiece zero at the beginning of the program. .............................................. 26
How preparing the machine for machining operations with transfer:...................................................... 27
1st Determine workpiece zero and carry out the 1st machining stage.................................................... 27
2nd Stop the machine and verify the dimension before doing the transfer............................................. 27
3nd Do the transfer and place the subhead in working position.............................................................. 27

4nd Stop the machine and determine workpiece zero before performing the 2nd machining stage. ......27
In this manual we will always refer to codes G type A. Refer to Fanuc programming manual for further
information on G codes........................................................................................................................... 29
Comment:............................................................................................................................................... 29
These are notes included in the program............................................................................................... 29
These notes are totally optional, and it is up to the programmer to enter them or not............................ 29
These notes will be always placed in brackets () in order to prevent the program reading them. ...........29
T101 29
Here is shown that the tool to be used is in position 1 and a correction value of 01 is applied...............29
T0101 could be also entered, as the four mandatory characters are present, however, the first zero is
optional.................................................................................................................................................... 29
Head rotation direction:.......................................................................................................................... 29
M3 head rotation direction...................................................................................................................... 29

M4 M200 M8.......................................................................................................................................... 29
As seen in this example, up to 3 M codes can be programmed on each line......................................... 29
It is always advisable to switch chip conveyor and coolant on at the start of the program, excepting for
special cases........................................................................................................................................... 29
G0 X150 Z150........................................................................................................................................ 29
Note that tool retraction in this example is to 150 mm on X+ and 150 mm on Z+ from workpiece zero,
and not from chuck face, as no order for changing the position is given to workpiece zero, which in this
example is maintained in the previous position....................................................................................... 29
Line number (N10, N20...)...................................................................................................................... 29
Line numbers are optional, and can be either entered or not.................................................................. 29
It is advisable to enter line numbers with a margin, such as 10, 20 …, as you can then enter
intermediate operations without requiring changing all line numbers (10, 12, 13, 20...)........................... 29
G96 G99 S200 F.25............................................................................................................................... 29
As you can see, G codes are first placed and then S and F codes. Codes can be also entered in the
following manner: G96 S200 G99 F.25................................................................................................... 29
Entering codes such as G96 and G50 in the same line is not permitted................................................. 29
In this example you can see that the first pass (N10 to N50) is carried out letting part of the machining
operation for de second pass (N60 to N120)........................................................................................... 30
You can also see that for taper turning entering the start point and the end point will not be necessary,
and the angle between these two points will be machined...................................................................... 30
In this example the part would have a ø35 hole...................................................................................... 31
In this example we consider that the part is rough machined................................................................. 32
As seen in this example, G2 is used to machine radii in clockwise direction and G3 in counterclockwise
direction................................................................................................................................................... 32
You can also see that G2 or G3 is first entered, then the end point, and finally the radius,.................... 32
As you can see, for the interpolation, you must know the point from which this interpolation will take
place in order to change radius direction (in this example on point X69.282 Z-60).................................. 33
In this example, slots of de ø65, ø71 and ø69 are to be machined. For this, tool T5 will be used. .........34
The references are: U for X-axis (U-command also on ø to).................................................................. 34
W for the Y-axis..................................................................................................................................... 34
H for the C-axis..................................................................................................................................... 34
Time delays are entered each time a slot is machined in order to stop the tool for a given time and then
properly complete the machining operation............................................................................................. 34
To go from M3 to M4, first enter M5 to stop the head............................................................................. 35
2. G FUNCTIONS................................................................................................................................... 36
This section describes G codes more commonly used. Refer to CNC unit manual supplied by the
manufacturer for G codes not included in this section............................................................................. 36

For M codes not included in this manual, refer to CMZ. In some machine models, other M codes for
functions different to those described herein may be availbale................................................................ 40
4. THREADING....................................................................................................................................... 45
The outside thread area will be turned to a diameter (- 0.1 mm the metric diameter) in order to prevent
that thread tips can result in sharp edges................................................................................................ 46
G32 for threading operations, always operate at fixed rpm (G97).......................................................... 46
When retapping threads, do not release the workpiece, do not change the speed and do not change the
start point................................................................................................................................................ 46
5. CONTROL FIXED CYCLES................................................................................................................ 47
You can find here a brief explanation of machining cycles. For a detailed description, refer to section 13
of FANUC manual, part 1/2..................................................................................................................... 47
At the end of each cycle sequence the machine is always positioned in the position at which this cycle
sequence was started. The tool will be commonly located in the position used for rough machining. .....47
The profile allows changing X and Z direction........................................................................................ 47
At the end of each cycle sequence the machine is always positioned in the position at which this cycle
sequence was started.............................................................................................................................. 47
The positioning allows changing X- and Z-axis direction........................................................................ 47
If the block G71 U3 R1 is entered for the first time, it will be stored in the parameter U=P5132 and
R=P5133 and will be kept until changed in either the program or the parameter..................................... 47
Same as the above one, excepting for the profile................................................................................... 48
IMPORTANT: Roughing cycles are without tool radius compensation. Because of this, higher
allowances will be specified for X and Z depending on tool radius.......................................................... 49
6. EXAMPLES OF FIXED CYCLES........................................................................................................ 51
For retraction at the start, the end of program will be replaced by this end of program; with cycle G83
the control retracts the drill to the start point (X0 Z3) every time, thus the retraction (R05) is not entered.
52
Groove width or groove end point can be defined with a W code in this example (W27, that is, 30 – 3 of
tool), if tool is positioned on the right-hand would be (W-27). For either Z or W, tool width must be
subtracted............................................................................................................................................... 53
It must be kept in mind that in all cases when pitch is multiplied by the revolutions the result must be ?
4000. Pitch x R.P.M. .  4000.................................................................................................................. 55
7. PROGRAMMING SIMPLIFICATION FUNCTIONS............................................................................. 58
Command and tool displacement tables are included in paragraph 13.6 of Fanuc Manual, part 1/2......58
In theses cases, considering tool direction is most important................................................................. 58
The easier procedure is drawing a quadrant on the drawing and locate the degrees as shown on the
above diagram......................................................................................................................................... 58
Finishing on (P3):................................................................................................................................... 60
N140 X200 C2;....................................................................................................................................... 60
N150 Z-102 (it is not known if right or left);............................................................................................. 60
You can program two angles with 2 radii or bevels as a maximum. ....................................................... 60
For further information on this subject, refer to section 14 on Fanuc manual, part 1/2........................... 60
All cycles ends where they are started and, because of this, finishing positioning is done above the
workpiece................................................................................................................................................ 66
For control units with capability for machining profiles with X-axis direction reversal, the first block for
defining the profile must state the movement of the two axes or include “U0” or “W0”. ........................... 68
Roughing cycles are without tool radius compensation. Because of this, higher allowances will be
specified for X and Z depending on tool radius........................................................................................ 68

M81; ............. C-axis mode is deactivated on main head or on head1................................................. 110
M281; ........... C-axis mode is deactivated on head2............................................................................ 110
1- Stop the head (head1 and/or head2) by entering the command M05 (head1) or M205 (head2) before
entering commands M80, M280. If any of the last parameters is entered with head1 or head2 rotating,
the machine will be stopped and an alarm message (FM024) will be shown on the display..................110
2- Before entering command M81 or M281, the powered tool must be stopped by entering command
M05 or M85. If any of these commands is entered when the powered tool is rotating, the machine will be
stopped and the alarm message (FM025) will de shown on the display................................................ 110
3- For machines of SMC series, deactivating C-axis function will not be necessary when changing this
function from a head to the other head by means of M80 or M280........................................................ 110
4- For machines of SMC series, head1 or head2 will operate on C-axis mode when entering M80 or
M280 respectively. To deactivate C-axis function on either head, only enter command M81 or M281
respectively, in case of each head......................................................................................................... 110
5- For machines of SMC series, if machining operations are to be carried out with head2, C-axis must be
returned to its “zero reference point” after completing the machining operations with head1................110
Commands M480 and M481 can be only used on machines of SMC series........................................ 111
M480; ........... C-axis mode is activated on both heads, head1 and head2........................................... 111
M481; ........... C-axis mode is deactivated on both heads, head1 and head2....................................... 111
111
When C-axes on both heads are coupled, activating the hydraulic brake to lock head1 (M50) will only be
permitted. Considering that this function is used to machine workpieces clamped on both heads, locking
both heads will not be required. ............................................................................................................ 111
1- Stop head, head1 or head2 by entering M05 (head1) and/or head2 by entering M205 before entering
command M480. If the last command in entered when the head1 or head2 is rotating, the machine will
be stopped and the alarm message (FM024) will be shown on the display........................................... 111
2- Before entering command M481 you will need to stop the powered tool by entering M05 or M85
command. If command M481 is programmed when the powered tool is running, the machine will be
stopped and the alarm message (FM025) will be shown on the display................................................ 111
3- For machines of SMC series, when a command M480 is entered both heads, head1 and head2 will
operate in C-axis mode. To rotate the heads, C-axis must be deactivated by means of M81 or M281
respectively, or by means of M481........................................................................................................ 111
Commands M380 and M381 are only used on machines of SMC series provided with SUPERCAP tool.

M304; ........... When SuperCap is used, activates C-axis for head2 after enabling C-axis mode by
means of M380...................................................................................................................................... 112
For machines of SMC series, chuck locking function is only valid for the head for which the last M
function is entered, and provided that more than one M303 (activation of C-axis for head1), M304
(activation of C-axis for head2), M50 (head brake for head1), or M250 (head brake for head2), is entered
in a single block. Therefore, the machining process must be carried out with the head corresponding to
the M code entered in the program. If the machining operation is carried out with the other head, the
powered tool will not be stopped, irrespective the jaws are open or not, so the workpiece could fall down
or be thrown away the chuck, causing personal injures or damages to the machine. ........................... 112
1- For machines of SMC series, head1 or head2 will operate in C-axis mode if command M303 or M304,
respectively, is entered in the program. To rotate head1 or head2, C-axis mode is disabled on head1
and head2 by entering the command M381.......................................................................................... 112
2- For machines of SMC series, after using main head, C-axis must be returned to zero position before

11. FUNCTIONS TO SHORTEN CYCLE TIME..................................................................................... 126
Those functions which require to be executed that a function in the same block will be previously
executed must not be entered in the same block.................................................................................. 127
For instance, neither “M80 M83” nor “M81 M85” must be entered in the same block, as M83 and M85
require that M80 and M81 respectively will be previously executed....................................................... 127

1. BASIC CONCEPTS
1.1 Machine axes
 Refer to operation manual for further information on this subject, chapter B,

point 3: SELECTING THE COORDINATE SYSTEM
1.1.1 X axis, Z axis
X+
Z- Z+ B- B+
X-
X-, Z- and B-axis and their respective positive and negative displacement directions are shown
on the above schematic diagram.
As you can see, when workpiece zero reference point is located on workpiece end (most
common case), the positive direction is outside the workpiece, while the negative direction is
on the workpiece area to be machined (inside the workpiece).
Commonly, you will operate in the quadrant defined by X+ and Z-.
The machine will enter only in X- area for facing operations.
You may also operate X+ Z+ quadrant when the workpiece is clamped on the subhead.
1.1.2 C-axis
C-axis would be used to swivel the head in order to C- C+
position the workpiece for drilling operations using a
powered tool.
C+ is in clockwise direction and C- is counterclockwise

direction.
If the machine is provided with a

subhead, C1 would be for the main head
and C2 for the subhead.
1.1.3 Other axes that could be encountered when programming the

machine are
A: powered tool rotating axis.
B: displacement axis used to approach the subhead to main head or move it away.
F: feed axis (related to slides) to be programmed when in operation.

In millimetres x per revolution when the head is rotating (turning)
For example:
G99 F0.3  this means “03 millimetres per revolution”.
In millimetres per minute when the head is stopped (MC).

For example:
G98 F80  this means “80 millimetres per minute”
T: is turret rotation.
R: is radius programming.
S: are head revolutions (cutting speed) This letter is always related to heads.
G50 S1000  Rpm limit.
G97 S1000  fixed rpm (for tapping and drilling).
G96 S200  cutting speed (m/min) for all turning operations.
Cutting speed formula:

Dn
Vc= Vc= Cutting speed
1000 D= Part standard diameter
Vc1000 n= Rpm limit.
n=
D
,C: bevel programming.
,A: angle programming.
As you can see, two variants are available “,C” and “,A” with a leading comma
to differentiate them from C- and A-axis
1.2 Tool offset

The correction value is the protruding length of tool end from the zero reference of turret disc.
The required correction values must be entered each time tool position is changed with respect
to the aforementioned position; if tool position is not changed, entering a correction value will
not be necessary as these values are stored in the memory.
New correction values must be entered when the tool is moved because of a hit
1.2.1 Entering correction values

There are two ways for entering tool correction values.
1st.) supplied with presetter.
For machines with presetter, place the presetter in position and preset the tool.

Refer to operation manual for further information on this subject, chapter B,
point 4: OPERATION PROCEDURE FOR MANUAL TOOL PRESETTER
INTEGRATED IN THE MACHINE
2nd.) supplied without presetter.
For machines without presetter, turn the workpiece and retract the tool without moving it out
the axis. Then measure the workpiece and enter the readings in the geometry table.
To enter a value, go to the geometry table (correction value), enter the required value and
press the intermediate key; by this way the control unit will calculate the correction value.
When a tool is placed on the subhead (the case may be in which double
toolholders are used for the head and the subhead) keep in mind that correction
values are ? 21, that is, for position 1 the correction value will be 21, for position
2, 22, and so on.
1.3 Workpiece zero reference point

Workpiece zero is the workpiece protruding length from main chuck face.
It can be also placed in other location, even though it is advised not to do it, as
following up and verifying the program would much more difficult and you should
continuously calculate the difference between this position and workpiece end.
We advise you to enter workpiece zero at the beginning of the program.

<Standard for machines with sub-head>

In the following example we explain how a value of 80 is entered for the first stage (machining
the workpiece on the head), while a value of 460 is entered for the second stage (machining
the workpiece on the subhead).
Zero 1st phase Zero 2nd phase

G10 P0 Z-80 G10 P0 Z-460
How preparing the machine for machining operations with transfer:
1st Determine workpiece zero and carry out the 1st machining stage.
2nd Stop the machine and verify the dimension before doing the transfer.
3nd Do the transfer and place the subhead in working position.
4nd Stop the machine and determine workpiece zero before performing the 2nd
machining stage.

These are notes included in the program.
These notes are totally optional, and it is up to the programmer to enter them or
not.
These notes will be always placed in brackets () in order to prevent the program
reading them.
T101
Here is shown that the tool to be used is in position 1 and a correction value of
01 is applied.
T0101 could be also entered, as the four mandatory characters are present,
however, the first zero is optional.
Head rotation direction:

M3 head rotation direction
M4 head rotation direction reverse or clockwise.

As seen in this example, up to 3 M codes can be programmed on each line.
It is always advisable to switch chip conveyor and coolant on at the start of the
program, excepting for special cases.
G0 X150 Z150
Note that tool retraction in this example is to 150 mm on X+ and 150 mm on Z+
from workpiece zero, and not from chuck face, as no order for changing the
position is given to workpiece zero, which in this example is maintained in the
previous position.
Line number (N10, N20...)

Line numbers are optional, and can be either entered or not.
It is advisable to enter line numbers with a margin, such as 10, 20 …, as you
can then enter intermediate operations without requiring changing all line
numbers (10, 12, 13, 20...).

In this example you can see that the first pass (N10 to N50) is carried out letting
part of the machining operation for de second pass (N60 to N120).
You can also see that for taper turning entering the start point and the end point
will not be necessary, and the angle between these two points will be machined.

In this example we consider that the part is rough machined.
As seen in this example, G2 is used to machine radii in clockwise direction and

G3 in counterclockwise direction.
You can also see that G2 or G3 is first entered, then the end point, and finally
the radius,

2. G FUNCTIONS
G functions used in machining programs are described in this section.
This section describes G codes more commonly used. Refer to CNC unit
manual supplied by the manufacturer for G codes not included in this section.
2.1 List of G codes

Also called preparatory functions, G codes consist of a G address followed by a numerical
value which defines a machining mode or an axis displacement within a program block. The
CNC unit will control the specified G code.
G codes are classified into two types:
Type Description
Non-modal G code The G code is valid within the block in which it was
(Group 00, excepting G10 and G11) programmed
Modal G code The G code will remain valid until another G code of
(Groups other than 00) the same group is programmed.
For instance, G00 and G01 are modal G codes, as they pertain to a group other than 00.
G01 X_Z_;
X_; G01 is valid within this range
Z_;
G00 X_Z_;
1- More than one G code may be programmed in a block, provided they are
from different groups.
2.- If more than one G code in a group is programmed in a block, only the last
programmed G code will be executed.
3.- If a G code not specified in the list of G codes or a G code related to a

function not available in the machine is programmed, alarm message no. 010
will be displayed.
4.- G codes marked with % are activated by default when CNC is started or
RESET key pressed.
2.1.1 TL, TB, TBI models

*1: Standard machines with automatic tailstock (T).

The outside thread area will be turned to a diameter (- 0.1 mm the metric
diameter) in order to prevent that thread tips can result in sharp edges.
G32 for threading operations, always operate at fixed rpm (G97).

When retapping threads, do not release the workpiece, do not change the
speed and do not change the start point.
5. CONTROL FIXED CYCLES
You can find here a brief explanation of machining cycles. For a detailed
description, refer to section 13 of FANUC manual, part 1/2
5.1 G70 Finishing cycle

G70 P1000 Q1100
P Block number from which the profile operation begins.
Q Block number from which the profile operation ends.
At the end of each cycle sequence the machine is always positioned in the
position at which this cycle sequence was started. The tool will be commonly
located in the position used for rough machining.
The profile allows changing X and Z direction.
5.2 G71 Longitudinal roughing cycle parallel to Z-axis

G71 U3 R1
G71 P100 Q200 U0.3 W0.1 F0.25
U Cut depth on radius (mm).
R Retraction in radial direction from diameter to prevent touching the machined diameter
(mm).
Q Number of end block of profile.
U Finishing allowance for radius on X-axis (mm).
W Finishing allowance on Z-axis (mm).
F Instantaneous feed (mm/revolution).
At the end of each cycle sequence the machine is always positioned in the
position at which this cycle sequence was started.
The positioning allows changing X- and Z-axis direction.
If the block G71 U3 R1 is entered for the first time, it will be stored in the
parameter U=P5132 and R=P5133 and will be kept until changed in either the
program or the parameter.
5.3 G72 Cross roughing cycle transversal parallel to X-axis

G72 W3 R1
G72 P100 Q200 U0.25 W0.1 F0.3
Same as the above one, excepting for the profile.
5.4 G73 Roughing cycle with passes parallel to profile

G73 U9 W9 R3
G73 P100 Q150 U0.4 W0.1 F0.3
U Stock allowance (for radius) unmachined on X-axis (mm).
W Stock allowance on Z-axis (mm).
R Number of roughing passes.
Q Number of end block of profile.
U Finishing allowance for radius on X-axis (mm).
W Finishing allowance on Z-axis (mm).
5.5 G74 Drilling cycle (chip breakage)

reversal, the first block for defining the profile must state the movement of the
two axes or include “U0” or “W0”.
Roughing cycles are without tool radius compensation. Because of this, higher
allowances will be specified for X and Z depending on tool radius.

8. FIXED CYCLES BY CMZ
In this chapter, the description of some G codes that have been programmed by CMZ is
described
8.1 G38, Checking workpiece pushing

G38 is programmed when a workpiece clamped on the head is to be moved to the sub-head.
When transferring the workpiece from the head to the sub-head, it is assumed that the workpiece will
be in contact with sub-head chuck face when the limit value preset for B-axis is reached. Then the
workpiece is clamped on the sub-head and the program advances to the following block.
G38 can be only programmed on machines equipped with sub-head (S)
COMMAND G38 B (J)_K_F_Q_;

- G38................Workpiece push checking command.
- B....................Absolute command
This is a B-axis coordinate value for the working position at
which the workpiece will be transferred from the head to the
sub-head.
- F....................Advance (mm/min)
This is the advance speed for workpiece transfer operation.
- Q....................Transfer position tolerance.
After the workpiece is positioned on B+Q as a result of transfer
operation, the program will be advanced to the following block.

8.4.1 Calibrating of tailstock pushing force.

G138 and G238 allow the calibrating of the tailstock pushing force through the variable #130.
When an argument T [Kgf] is programmed for this G function (limit of B axis pushing force),
the tailstock makes this force against the workpiece.
If a force meassurement device is installed between the spindle and the automatic tailstock, as
can be seen on next figure, the force made by the tailstock could be read. This force should be
the same as the one programmed on by the T argument.
Fig. 1.3.1
To calibrate this force, the variable #130 of the program O9016 (for the cycle G138), or the
program O9015 (for the cycle G238) can be introduced from the keyboard, until both
measurements are the same.
The initial #130 is introduced by the manufacturer during the machine

verification process.
If the bit 4 in the parameter 3202 takes the value of “1”, the edition of registered
programs O9000 to O9999 will not be possible.

9.2 M33, M34, M36 Synchronising operation

M33 function is used to synchronise only head
and sub-head speed.
M34 function is used to synchronise head and
sub-head phase and speed.
M36 function disables the synchronisation mode.
M33, M34 and M36 commands are

only used on machines equipped
with a sub-head (S).
COMMAND M33; ............ Speed synchronisation.

M34; ............ Phase and speed synchronisation.
M36; ............ Synchronisation mode disabled.
1- For transferring a workpiece from main head to sub-head, head and sub-
head speed must be synchronised by means of M33 command. If the workpiece
is transferred without activating the synchronisation mode, scratching of
workpiece could result.
2- For transferring an hexagonal bar, head and sub-head phase and speed
must be synchronised by means of M34 command, as otherwise the transfer
operation will not be possible.
3- M36 function should be only programmed after completing a cutting cycle or

when chucks on main head and sub-head are open.
4- If a M34 function is programmed with sub-head jaws closed, alarm message

FM 102 will be displayed.
5- M5 function must not be programmed when phase and/or speed

synchronisation mode is activated. M5 function will disable the synchronisation
mode.
M34 function can de also used for round parts, but considering that phase (and
speed) synchronisation time is longer and speed synchronisation time, using
M33 function is recommended when machining round parts.

9.5 M73, M74 Workpiece collector IN/OUT

When a M73 function is executed, workpiece collector is moved to a position under the chuck
in order to collect the finished workpiece.
When a M74 function is executed, workpiece collector returns to a position near machine door
for ejection of finished part.
If you try opening machine door, workpiece collector will be retracted to a position allowing the
door to be easily opened.
COMMAND M73; ............ Workpiece COLLECTION.

(Workpiece collector IN)
M74; ............ Workpiece EJECTION.
(Workpiece collector OUT)
1.- Before executing a M73 function, ensure that the turret is out the
interference area with workpiece collector.
2.- Singly programming a M73 or M74 function in a block without any

other command and entering a G04 function in the next block, will allow
workpiece collector movements to be completed without any
interference.
If a G04 function is not entered in the next block, next block can be
started with workpiece collector not having completed its movements
and thus with a risk of collision.
G04 time period must be longer than the time required for collecting and
ejecting the workpiece. It should be taken also into account that this
time period will depend on air pressure.
3.- If workpiece weight or volume exceeds the capacity of workpiece

collector, do not use it, as otherwise damages could be caused to the
machine.
1.- On machines equipped with a sub-head (S), don not enter a M73 function in
the program if there is any risk of collision with sub-head body.
2.- On machines equipped with a sub-head (S), B-axis displacement is not

permitted when workpiece collector is in collection position.

9.6 M329 Rigid threading with heads

M329 is programmed when a threading operation is required, with Z-axis, on the centreline of a
workpiece clamped on the head or sub-head.
For threading operations, Z-axis displacement per revolution of head must be equal to thread
pitch.
To ensure that an accurate thread pitch is achieved, axis feed (Z-axis) and head speed must
be continuously synchronised.
M329 may be used on all machines.
COMMAND M329 X_ Z_ H_ R_ F_ S_ T_ A_ I_;
- M329................Command for rigid threading.

- X, Z........Absolute commands, with the position of the hole to be

threading cycle.
4- As axes and head are synchronised, using a floating tap will not be required.
5- Positioning on X- and Z-axis is performed on G0 simultaneously on the 2

axes.

7- T3 value must be only specified for machines equipped with a sub-head (S)
(S specification). This value must not be used to perform a front threading
operation on a workpiece located on the sub-head.
8- If argument 1 is set to a value other than 1, the cycle will assume that a
right-hand thread is to be machined.

9.7 M432 Workpiece collection cycle

On machines equipped with a sub-head (S), it is possible to machine a new workpiece on main
head after the previous workpiece has been machined on the sub-head and at the end of the
following cycle:
Stop sub-head Collet workpiece Reject workpiece
The next block in the program will not be executed until the above cycle is completed.
However, M342 function will enable continuing executing the program while this cycle is being
executed.
This will allow machining a workpiece on main head immediately after completing a machining
cycle on the sub-head.
COMMAND
M432; .............Workpiece collection cycle.
This function should be programmed after machining a workpiece on the

sub-head and prior to machining a new workpiece on main head.
However, ensure that machining a workpiece on main head will not
interfere with workpiece collector and sub-head movements, as
otherwise there is a risk of collision, causing damages to the machine.
1.- Commands M210 and M211 (open and close sub-head jaws respectively)
cannot be executed when a workpiece collection cycle is being executed.
2.- The following operations, if programmed when a workpiece collection cycle is

activated, will be executed at the end of workpiece collection cycle:
- B-axis displacement
- Head phase synchronisation (M34)
- Head speed synchronisation (M33)
- Manual door opening (M30)
- Automatic door opening (M70)
- Sub-head rotation (M203/M204)
- Sub-head orientation (M219)
- Sub-head jaws blowing (M254)
3.- Programming a M432 will not be permitted in there is any interference of B-

axis with workpiece collector.

If a rear chip conveyor is installed, M200 and M201 codes switch on and off
cleaning fluid, respectively, further to starting and stopping the chip conveyor.
In this case, chip conveyor operation time entered on parameter screen does
not affect cleaning fluid pump operation.
9.10 Cutting fluid

The operation mode of the various configurations available for cutting fluid pump is described
below. These configurations depend on machine type and optional attachments provided.
9.10.1 Coolant
If the machine is equipped with a single coolant pump, M8 code, while on automatic mode, will
start the pump and M38 code will stop it. You can also enter M9 code to stop the pump, as this
code will switch off all pumps, both coolant pumps and cleaning fluid pumps.
A push-button is available for starting this pump on manual mode. The LED on this push-
button will be lighted when the pump is started.
TBI 520 machines can be provided with a second coolant pump. This pump is
started and stopped, while on automatic mode, by means of codes M18 and
M17, respectively. If a M9 code is programmed, both coolant pumps are
stopped.
This pump is optional for TBI520 machines.
Same as for the first pump, a push-button is available on control panel for starting and
stopping the second coolant pump on manual mode. (The LED will be lighted when this pump
is started)
These two coolant pumps will only operated if machine door is closed.
9.10.2 Cleaning fluid

If the machine is equipped with a rear chip conveyor, cleaning pump operation will be governed
by chip conveyor operation. By this way, when a M200 code is entered to start the chip
conveyor, the pump will be also started and will be kept running until a M201 code is entered to
stop the chip conveyor.
If the chip conveyor is located on the machine side instead of on the rear, M382 and M383
code will start and stop the pump, respectively, while on automatic mode. In this case, a push-
button on control panel is used to start (LED lighted) and stop the pump on manual mode.
A cleaning pump is always provided on TL machines equipped with rear chip

conveyor or B-axis.
Operation of cleaning pump will be only possible with machine door closed.
9.10.3 Supply of coolant through sub-head

This option is only available for TL machines.

10. PROGRAMMING C-AXIS AND POWERED TOOL.
This section describes the procedure used to program machining cycles requiring position
control by the head. This is the meaning of C-axis. The head will rotate and the control unit will
control head position at all moment. By this way, C-axis can be positioned according to preset
angles, be displaced on incremental mode, etc irrespective the workpiece is being machined or
not.
10.1 M codes related to C-axis functions on one or two heads

The enclosed table summarises M codes related to C-axis functions on one or two heads:

10.1.1 M80, M81, M280 y M281 - Activation and deactivation of C-

axis
When a command M80 is entered, C-axis operation is activated on the main head, or on the
head1.
When a command M280 is entered, C-axis operation is activated for head2.
When a command M81 is entered, C-axis operation is deactivated for main head, or for head1.
When a command M281 is entered, C-axis operation is deactivated for head2.
Commands M80, M280, M81 and M281 can be only used on machines of M
type Commands M280 and M281 can be only used on machines of SM type.
By programming command M80, M280 on automatic mode or MDI mode, head1

or head2 can be indexed to the required angular position in order to drill holes
on the circular contour of the workpiece or on the end face.
On mode M80 or M280, head rotation can be controlled synchronically with tool
movement in order to cut grooves or slots.
COMMAND M80; ............. C-axis mode is activated on head1.

M280; ........... C-axis mode is activated on head2.
M81; ............. C-axis mode is deactivated on main head or on head1.
M281; ........... C-axis mode is deactivated on head2.
For machines of SM series, chuck locking function is only enabled for the head
for which the last M command has been programmed, provided that more than
one M80 (C-axis activation for head1), M280 (C-axis activation for head2), M50
(brake activation for head1), and M250 (brake activation for head2) is
programmed in a single block. Chuck locking function is nor enabled for other
heads. Therefore, the machining operation must be performed with the head for
which the last M command is programmed. If the machining operation is
performed with other head, the powered tool will not be stopped even with jaws
open, letting the workpiece to fall or be thrown out the chuck, causing personal
injures or damages to the machine.
1- Stop the head (head1 and/or head2) by entering the command M05 (head1)
or M205 (head2) before entering commands M80, M280. If any of the last
parameters is entered with head1 or head2 rotating, the machine will be
stopped and an alarm message (FM024) will be shown on the display.
2- Before entering command M81 or M281, the powered tool must be stopped
by entering command M05 or M85. If any of these commands is entered
when the powered tool is rotating, the machine will be stopped and the
alarm message (FM025) will de shown on the display.
3- For machines of SMC series, deactivating C-axis function will not be

necessary when changing this function from a head to the other head by
means of M80 or M280.
4- For machines of SMC series, head1 or head2 will operate on C-axis mode
when entering M80 or M280 respectively. To deactivate C-axis function on
either head, only enter command M81 or M281 respectively, in case of each
head.
COMMAND
5- For machines of SMC series, if machining operations are to be carried out
with head2, C-axis must be returned to its “zero reference point” after
completing the machining operations with head1.
10.1.2 M480 and M481 - Coupling of C-axes for head and

subhead.
Function M480 is used for coupling C-axis movement for head and subhead. For instance, this
function is used to perform C-axis operations with a workpiece simultaneously clamped on bot
heads.
By entering M481 head coupling is disengaged.
Commands M480 and M481 can be only used on machines of SMC series.
M480; ........... C-axis mode is activated on both heads, head1 and head2.
M481; ........... C-axis mode is deactivated on both heads, head1 and head2.
When C-axes on both heads are coupled, activating the hydraulic brake to lock
head1 (M50) will only be permitted. Considering that this function is used to
machine workpieces clamped on both heads, locking both heads will not be
required.
1- Stop head, head1 or head2 by entering M05 (head1) and/or head2 by

entering M205 before entering command M480. If the last command in
entered when the head1 or head2 is rotating, the machine will be stopped
and the alarm message (FM024) will be shown on the display.
2- Before entering command M481 you will need to stop the powered tool by
entering M05 or M85 command. If command M481 is programmed when
the powered tool is running, the machine will be stopped and the alarm
message (FM025) will be shown on the display.
3- For machines of SMC series, when a command M480 is entered both

heads, head1 and head2 will operate in C-axis mode. To rotate the heads,
C-axis must be deactivated by means of M81 or M281 respectively, or by
means of M481.
10.1.3 M380, M381, M303 and M304 - Activation and deactivation

of C-axis with SuperCap.
When the control unit is provided with SuperCap tool, C-axis is activated by means of
command M380, and then enter M303 or M304 to activate C-axis mode on head1 or head2
respectively.
Command M381 deactivated C-axis function on head1 or head2.
Commands M380 and M381 are only used on machines of SMC series provided
with SUPERCAP tool.
M380; ........... C-axis mode is activated by means SuperCap.

COMMAND
M381; ........... C-axis mode is activated by means SuperCap.
M303; ........... When SuperCap is used, activates C-axis for head1 after
enabling C-axis mode by means of M380.
M304; ........... When SuperCap is used, activates C-axis for head2 after
enabling C-axis mode by means of M380.
For machines of SMC series, chuck locking function is only valid for the head for
which the last M function is entered, and provided that more than one M303
(activation of C-axis for head1), M304 (activation of C-axis for head2), M50
(head brake for head1), or M250 (head brake for head2), is entered in a single
block. Therefore, the machining process must be carried out with the head
corresponding to the M code entered in the program. If the machining operation
is carried out with the other head, the powered tool will not be stopped,
irrespective the jaws are open or not, so the workpiece could fall down or be
thrown away the chuck, causing personal injures or damages to the machine.
1- For machines of SMC series, head1 or head2 will operate in C-axis mode if
command M303 or M304, respectively, is entered in the program. To rotate
head1 or head2, C-axis mode is disabled on head1 and head2 by entering
the command M381.
2- For machines of SMC series, after using main head, C-axis must be
returned to zero position before changing to the subhead, after using the
main head.

it is assumed that the tool holder will rotate in the proper direction.
ALTERNATIVE PROGRAM
This fixed drilling cycle can be programmed in the apparently more logic and simple sequence,

The weak brake is only useful with a significant force in applied by the milling cutter on the
chuck. This force will depend on workpiece material and the machining operation itself. If no
significant force is applied on the chuck, using the brake is not advisable, as otherwise this
would result in a discontinuous (step to step) feed of milling cutter.

11. FUNCTIONS TO SHORTEN CYCLE TIME
The functions described below are used to shorten the time of operations that, while required
for machining a part, would extend the whole process.
11.1 M316 Unlocking the turret on out position

The turret on models TB, TL and TBI520 is of servo type with hydraulic locking. This means
that toolholder disc rotation is driven by a servomotor controlled from the NC unit and that
toolholder disc is locked on turret body by means of a hydraulic system.
Because of this, the turret must be unlocked before rotating toolholder disc. Also, the turret
must be locked after rotating toolholder disc to the required position.
Neither the locking operation nor the unlocking operation are instantaneous, but require some
time.
By means of function M316, the servo-turret is unlocked while moved out the workpiece to tool
change position and locked while moved toward the workpiece after the tool is changed.
Application example:
Program without M316 Program with M316:
O001 (M316 example);

N10 G10 P0 Z-100 N10 G10 P0 Z-100;
N20 T101 N20 T101;
N30 G50 S2500 N30 G50 S2500;
N40 G96 S200 G99 F0,25 M3 M8 N40 G96 S200 G99 F0,25 M3 M8
M200 M200;
N50 G0 X70 Z0 N50 G0 X70 Z0;
N60 G1 X-1 N60 G1 X-1;
N70 G0 X150 Z100 M316 (the turret is N70 G0 X150 Z100 M316 (by means
moved to the position (150,100) in of the instructions in this line, the
which the tool will be changed; as no turret is moved to the position
function M316 is entered, the turret (150,100) in which the tool is changed;
will be unlocked after reaching this as a function M316 is entered, the
position). turret will be unlocked while moving);
N80 T202 N80 T202;
N90 G0 X68 Z1 (after rotated and N90 G0 X68 Z1 (after the rotation is
locked, the turret is returned to the completed, the turret is moved to the
position in which the machining position in which the machining
operation is started); operation is started and locked while
N91 G1 Z-50 F0.3 moving);
... N91 G1 Z-50 F0.3;
...
The sum of locking and unlocking times is saved as a result of function M316, as these
operations are performed while the turret is being moved.
11.2 Programming three M functions in a single block
Machine models TB, TL and TBI520 equipped with Fanuc i-TB series control units enable
simultaneously executing three M functions.
This means that the three M functions are executed at the same time, irrespective the order in
which they are programmed. The total time required to execute the three M functions will be
equal to the time required to execute the slower one.
Those functions which require to be executed that a function in the same block
will be previously executed must not be entered in the same block.
For instance, neither “M80 M83” nor “M81 M85” must be entered in the same
block, as M83 and M85 require that M80 and M81 respectively will be previously
executed.
M30, M0, M1, M2, M301, M302, M303, M304 y M29 functions must be required as the first M
function of all three functions.
Do not enter “M70 M30”, but “M30 M70” (cycle end and door opening).
11.3 Using G97 to ensure the head reaching the required rotation
speed
If G96 is entered, cutting speed will be constant. This means that, for small turning diameters,
the head will reach high rotation speeds.
If when turning a small diameter a tool change is required, the turret should be moved out from
the workpiece to the position in which the tool is changed. The head will be decelerated
because this turret movement is carried out without specifying the speed. Consequently, when
the turret returns to the position in which a small diameter is turned, the head will be
accelerated until the speed required for turning this small diameter is reached.
By entering function G97 together with the required head speed, the required head rotation
speed is maintained while both moving the turret out the workpiece and returning it to the
workpiece, thus reducing the time required to accelerate the head.
For example:
N10 G10 P0 Z-103;

N20 T101 (surfacing);
N30 G50 S3500 (R.P.M. limit);
N40 G96 G99 S200 F.25 M4 M200 M8;
N50 G0 X45 Z0 (APROXIMATIÓN);
N60 G1 X-2 (SURFACING REACHES 3500 RPM)
N70 G0 X150 Z150 G97 S3500 M316(CONSTANT TURNING SPEED 3500);
N80 T303;
N90 G0 X20 Z1 (APROXIMATION);
N100 G96 G99 S200 F.25 M4 M200 M8 (G96 IS PROGRAMMED AGAIN, BUT SPINDLE IS
ALREADY TURNING AT PROGRAMMED SPEED);
N110...........
11.4 Using M318 to change tower position while axes are being
moved.
By default, tower position is changed after all axes are moved to programmed position.
However, by using M318 code, you can change tower position before all axis movements are
completed.
As M318 enables tower movement while the axes are being moved,
you should keep in mind that a collision between the workpiece
and tool holding disc could occur if machine movements are
incorrectly programmed. Before starting a new cycle, make sure
that any interference between movements is prevented.
11.5 Eliminating the waiting time at the end of M3, M4 or M5

When M3, M4 or M5 is entered in a block, this block will remain in execution status until the
end of M function This end is reached when the head reaches the programmed revolution
speed.
To eliminate this delay, enter a small S together with M4 and a larger S in next block.
Changing S value will not stop the block being executed until a cutting movement is read (ie
G1, G2, etc).
