How to set the knife for guangzhou cnc 980

Taking Guangzhou 980td CNC lathe tool alignment as an example, the specific operation steps are as follows:

1. First of all, the coordinate data of the last operation must be cleared before tool alignment. Note: X, Y and Z axes need to be zeroed, as shown in the following figure.

2. Next, turn the spindle to "MDI" mode, input the command code, the spindle rotates forward, and the rotation speed is kept at a medium level. Then switch to "handwheel" mode and move the machine tool by changing the adjustment rate, as shown in the following figure.

3. Then, the X-direction cutter gently touches the right side of the workpiece to clear the relative coordinates of the machine tool; Lift the tool along the Z direction, then move the tool to the left side of the workpiece, descend to the same height as before along the Z direction, move the tool to make it slightly contact with the workpiece, and lift the tool, as shown in the following figure.

4. Next, gently touch the tool in the Y direction in front of the workpiece to clear the relative coordinates of the machine tool; Lift the tool along the Z direction, then move the tool behind the workpiece, descend to the same height along the Z direction, move the tool to make it slightly contact with the workpiece, and then lift the tool, as shown in the following figure.

5. Then, align the cutter in the Z direction and move the cutter to the Z-direction zero point on the surface of the workpiece. Move the tool slowly and make slight contact with the upper surface of the workpiece. At this time, record the Z-direction value in the machine tool coordinate system, and press the (Enter) key to input the coordinate system, as shown in the figure below.

6. Finally, when the spindle stops rotating, stop the spindle first, move the spindle to a suitable position, and retrieve the machining program. Managers can press the switch to complete the FANUC system in which the machining center uses multiple knives at the same time, as shown in the figure below.
