Cncsimple 2.0 is a software for easy generation of G-Code. Briefly, I show you an example of use. If we want to create an external turning we selected the work from toolbar. Next the operation is added to the treeview below, when the treeview item is selected, in the space below you can insert the parameter. Now we want to define the turning profile.
We have 2 choice, one for the simpler profile, and one for the complex profile. For the simpler i can select Diameter List and inputing the diameter and the depth.
Cncsimple 2.0 is a software for easy generation of G-Code. Briefly, I show you an example of use. If we want to create an external turning we selected the.
With more complex profile you can select Profile Editor, then click on Open Profile Editor At this point theoretically we can alredy create the G-Code but we want to check the cutting parameter. Once the profile is defined, we want to add rest material to remove with finish tool. Next we move to next tab to check the generated operation. If we have setted the rest material now we have 2 operation, roughing and finish,otherwise we have only roughing operation. When we selected an operation from the treeview we can alredy see the toolpath on the screen. The tool parameter are alredy stored in a database, of course we can update them.
In the next tab we can see the operation grouped by the used tool. This view make sense when you use the same tool for multiple operation and you want to change the cutting data only once for all operation. If we want to change the stock material we can change the material from field showed below. All the parameter will be update to the new material. Finally we can see the back plotting of toolpath.
Selected the operation you want to simulate, next select the tab Simulation from the Menu and press Start. Now for the machine time summary press the Analyze Machining Time on the toolbar. And to obtain the code press Generate Code button. If you have any question mail me to cncsimple@gmail.com Thanks.
From: (by ) CutViewer is an easy-to-use program that simulates 2, 2-1/2 and 3 axis CNC Machines removing material from Stock in true Solid modeling. Using CutViewer will increase your productivity, all but eliminate programming errors, and prevent machine down time while debugging. Powerful and easy-to-use tools allow debug errors in the toolpath, detect collision of the tool with material stock while rapiding, estimate the machining time. CutViewer can be customized to support a wide variety of machines. Now you can control the CncSimple program result with CutViewer. Entering the comment strings within the program nc, CutViewer automatically configures the material to be machined and the various tools used.
Now I will show you an example: First you create the CNC program with CncSimple Press the Edit button, referring to the current phase Set the block size and set origin Open CutViewer. Create New File.
Copy the program created (Ctrl-C) with CncSimple and paste in CutViewer ( Ctrl-V) From Menu Press Running Rebuild And here the result. CutViewer also checks for collisions.

Fanuc CNC lathe programming knowledge: Learn Fanuc CNC lathe programming from the examples on this website. To learn the detailed method of all parts of Fanuc CNC lathe programming from my CNC DVDs, look at the Fanuc DVDs on the main website below: Learn more and earn more!
Are you an operator trying to learn more and get a better paying job as a programmer? Look at the video outlines and be honest about where you are lacking in CNC skills, buy the proper DVD, learn, and put your skill to work tomorrow. Do you need to get a new or used CNC Machine into productive operation? Did you buy a used CNC lathe or mill and need to learn to program your investment, make parts efficiently and pay for your investment? The DVDs cover the detailed method of programming Fanuc-Yasnac from 1980 to today. Watch, listen and learn and you should be making profitable parts soon.
Cnc Turning Center
Should you be more productive and efficient? Are you an owner or manager of a CNC shop and you feel that your machines could be a lot more efficient? Most likely, you could be 15% to 20% more efficient. Efficient CNC shops are far and few between, follow the experiences I gained by training hundreds of shops around the US and Canada, all of which you will lern from my DVDs.
If you do, you can be sure your shop will become a lot more efficient. Here is a picture of a recent CNC training job I did for Bradley's Motors in Corpus Christi, TX. This is the first part we made on a large CNC lathe with the Fanuc control. The machine was sold by Industrial Machinery at On all CNC controls, X is the diameter of the part.
A diameter of 4' is written as X4.0 (This was not always so, a lot of European machines used Radius for X.) Z is the absolute length dimension. The finish face of the part is set to be Z zero. Dimensions are written and entered into the control with decimal points, Z- 2.0 represents a distance of 2.0' past the face of the part toward the chuck. The motions available: G0=Rapid (Max available, can usually be overridden.) G1=Linear feed (Needs feedrate) G2= Circular CW G3=Circular CCW There are a lot more G codes, they will be explained as they appear in the following simple program. If you need any help with any lathe or mill programming question, call me at 614-888-84676 or send an email to Fanuc Lathe Program Example. Part is 2' OD, will be finish faced with OD skin cut taken. O2001(Program number) N1G50S2500(The G50 sets up safe max speed.) N2T0101(Tool index to position 1, use tool offset 1 to set tool and to change part size.) N3 G96S650M3(G96 is Constant Surface Feet, S is amount, M3 is spindle on CW.) N4G0X2.1Z0(Rapid to above OD and face of part.) N5G1X.5F.006(Face to.500 at a feed of.006 per rev.

N9M30( Ends program, resets memory to start.) Usually coolant is used, M8 is on, M9 is off. Fanuc CNC Lathe program using Noseradius Comp.
Before using this program, make sure to put size of noseradius into R in the Offset register, also the number describing the tool into T, usually 3 for OD tools and 2 for boring bars. 02010. N1 G50 S2000. N2 T0101. N3 G96 S500 M3. N4 G0 G42 X2.0 Z.1 M8.

N9 G0 G40 X6.0 Z6.0.(Make sure to cancel comp) M30. The typical Canned Cycles to make programming a lot easier: G71 does turning-boring with very little info. G76 cuts a thread, straight or tapered, also with very short, basic info.
Example: G76 Threading Cycle in 2 line format for OT and later controls. 2' diameter, 20 Threads per Inch, Mild Steel.
O2006. N1 G50 S1500. N2 T0101.
N3 G97 S700 M3.(Speed for threading, always in RPM) N4 G0 X2.2 Z.2 M8.(Rapid to above part,.2' from face) N5 G76 P021060 Q20 R5.(The first 2 digits in P represent the amount of finish passes, the next 2 are the pullout distance at the end of the threading motion, expressed in tenths of revolutions, the 60 is the angle of the tool) N6 G76 X1.94 Z-1.0 P300(total thread depth) Q150(depth of first cut) F.05. R if needed is the amount of taper over total distance in thread motion. The P value is figured by taking the F-value times the constant of.6, once figured you also have the X value.

U is the amount of stock left for finishing on the OD, W is the amount left on the shoulder.
