Fanuc Oi-MC Control Features

fanuc.gif (80566 Byte)

Advanced Preview Control (High speed look ahead):  Control realizes the optimum acceleration and deceleration of cutting speed by looking ahead multi-blocks of the part program.  This effectively eliminates machining trajectory error in corners and small radius and results in high speed and high accuracy machining

Rigid Tapping:  By adopting the position loop in spindle control, the spindle motor is completely synchronized with the tap axis (Z-axis).  The high speed and high precision tapping can be achieved Scaling:  Program command values can be scaled anywhere is a range from 0.001 to 999.999 times or from 0.00001 to 9.9999 times

Coordinate System Rotation:  Rotation of a programmed shape is possible

Tool life management:  Tools can be classified into various groups, and the tool life and the tool numbers for each group can be arranged in the NC memory in the form of a table

Data Server:  Upgradeable to 2GB memory

Cylindrical Interpolation:  This feature is ideally suitable for cylindrical groove cutting needs.  Programming can be performed precisely as the cylinder developed

Custom macro/ Macro executor:  Custom macro and macro executor are available for

customizing machine tool by MTB themselves.

Stored Pitch Error Compensation:  With this feature, compensation is carried out for errors relating to mechanical positioning, such as lead screw pitch error.  Compensation data is stored in the CNC memory.

Ethernet Capability:  Ethernet can be suitable for building the productive system where many machine tools and factory computers exchange data.

Digital Servo Technology

Servo HRV Control:  (High Speed and high precision servo control) By combination of hardware technology such as “Servo motor with ultra smooth rotation”, “Accurate current detection”, “High response and high resolution Pulse-coder”, and ‘SERVO HRV CONTROL’, high speed and high precision feed control and be realized.  And Mechanical resonance can be suppressed by Auto Following HRV Filter even though its frequency is changed.  Spindle HRV Control: (Quick acceleration and response by SPINDLE HRV Control) Quick response and high stability of current control are much enhanced by high speed DSP and advanced control algorithm (SPINDLE HRV Control). High response and high precision spindle control is realized with faster velocity loop sampling time and high resolution detector circuit. Controllability of C-axis contouring control is also enhanced. Servo Guide: (Quick and Smart Tuning of Servo and Spindle) This software provides the integrated environment for making test programs, setting parameters and data measurement needed for servo and spindle tuning.  It has the automatic tuning function for resonance elimination HRV filter and others.  Quick and smart optimization of servo and spindle is realized.

Ease of Use

Graphic displays:  Tool paths of part programs are able to be drawn graphically on the CNC display. See a visual prior to machining Servo waveform display:  Various servo data such as position errors, command pulses, torque commands, are displayed on CNC display with waveforms.  It facilitates tuning servo conditions and troubleshooting servo problems without oscilloscope. Alarm history and operation history:  Alarm and operation status is recorded automatically in the non-volatile CNC memory which be used for diagnostics. Help function:  Help function will assist an operator for details and countermeasure of any CNC alarm once lack of familiarity on CNC operation Saving and restoring by memory card: CNC data such as parameters, part programs and offset data can be saved to the PCMCIA memory card with relative ease, and are also restored conveniently from it for recovering CNC memory just in case

Conversational programming:  A new conversational programming function “MANUAL GUIDE Oi” with which even inexperienced users can make a part program easily, and can be applied to lathe, milling and machining center

ISO code part programming:  MANUAL GUIDE Oi” adopted ISO code program for its part program language.  Simple motion such as line and arc and entered by G-code directly, and complex motions such as pocket machining and drilling patterns can be entered easily by cycle machining blocks.   CAD/CAM programs: Since ISO code part program is widely used as a part program outputted from CAD/CAM system, the control has good affinity with CAD/CAM systems

G-code and M-code assistance:  The control comes standard with G-code and M-code assistance screen

CONTOUR PROGRAMMING:  User can enter contour figures made with lines and circles.  In this “contour programming” high performance contour calculating such as 10 blocks pending, auxiliary circulations with 11 patters and so on are available.

Advanced Canned Cycles:  Complex machining motions can be carried out automatically.
