Hey guys, I was given a task to try to make a custom probing cycle in our 5axis mill with sinumerik 840d sl. If anyone can give me any tips on where to start or what manual to get my hands on, I would really appreciate it.
The point of this thread is I can't seem to find a good plc (siemens) forum, I don't know why. Any suggestions?
Regards and thanks!
I can't express how much I'm gratefull right now. Thank you very much!
Saved me from quite alot of work on my last day before holydays

Hello guys, I have the same problem as described.. Could someone please check/open my file (since I dont have RG) and tell me the UFRAME 1 and 2 values.
Thanks in advance!!!
Trully thankfull for this answers!
Best regards
Which one would be the easyest to use (less complications) and which one would be the cheapest?
Regards
Thanks guys! 1 more question.. What would you recommend if the machine doesn't support I/O that you can use in its ladder?
Regards
Thanks a lot guys!
Regards
AB is a brand i suppose? And PAC?
We are based in europe so siemens would be the way to go probably..?

Thanks for the detailed answer or explanation! Our CNC's have some I/O's but they are very limited I would say.. Maybe an input for cycle start and output for cycle end, but as you said the doors would deffinetly need some upgrades (limit switches). Chucks are hyduralic so I would just use a relay instead of a pedal. We will try to avoid turning stocks, but if the stocks vary only in lenght (turning) it shouldn't be a problem as long as we use some kind of pressure piece on our gripper.
When you mentioned an interlock you meant a chuck interlock?

Hello guys,
at our company we are about to automate our shaft/gear production but we are curently using older CNC machines (the machines are in good shape), they were made betwen 1975 and 1995 and I was wondering if any1 has any "tips&tricks" for automation with older types of machines or things I should be carefull about.
Thanks for the help in advance!

I can't suggest anything that will work for sure, but you could try to contact RoboDK or Robotmaster (or any other OLP software retailer) and ask them how would they go at it.
You said that you cant get to all surfaces by programming with OLP... are u using 1 grinding tool or multiple?
My pleasure!
Regards
Do tou need to grind the part from different sides? If I rephrase it.. do you need to regrip the part multiple times to get to all the surfaces? (In case of RTCP).
And also if you would create a G code program in NX or powermill and then use roboDK to make robot paths that would require a really precise model and robot.
What are you're required tolerances?
And I'd like to add that I'm in robotics for about a year so "don't hold for my words" if you know what I mean... just trying to help
Thanks for the info guys! Appreciate it.
What max payload should a robot for a job like this have?
And what could we achieve with this one?
Thanks for the answer!
