Rigid Tapping Turning procedure

Available version

Version 7.10 or later Version 7.11or later, add Pr.418 to adjust acceleration loop gain Version 7.12 or later, add Pr. 1641 to set polarity of encoder Version 7.15or later, add Pr.419 to set rigid tapping spindle acceleration time

Line connection check

Check spindle rotation directionSystem Data No. 28 is the angle of spindle, unit is 0.001 degree. Please check when M03, spindle CW, the system data No. 28 will be increment, when M04, spindle CCW, then value will be decrement, if not like this, please change the A+, A- single line of spindle encoder, or set the Pr. 1641 polarity of spindle encoder to 1(negative polarity).

System data about rigid tapping description
No. 13Spindle and Z axis maximum following error change in Z axis, unit is BLU. No. 14Spindle and Z axis following error in Z direction, unit is BLU No. 15Spindle and Z axis angle following error in rotation direction, unit is degree.

Using parameter description

Pr. 417Rigid tapping velocity loop gain, use to adjust the power of Z axis following spindle in same velocity period, too small this value, the more backward of Z axis behind the spindle, too big this value, the less backward of Z axis behind the spindle, when this value to big, Z axis will forward the spindle, or it will have swing situation. Pr. 418Rigid tapping acceleration loop gain, use to adjust the power of Z axis acceleration , too small this value , the more backward of Z axis behind the spindle, too big this value, the less backward of Z axis behind the spindle, when this value to big, Z axis will forward the spindle, or it will have swing situation. Pr. 419The acceleration time of rigid tapping spindle rotate to 1000RPM, using to adjust the over cut depth value of rigid tapping.

Turning procedures
1.Writing a tapping program, like following sample, dont put workpiece, just do back and forth rigid tapping action. 2.Adjust Pr. 417 to let the following error value of back and forth (see the system data 14 / 15) are the same in both sign and value. 3.Adjust Pr. 418 to minimize the Z axis following error change in tapping travel (see the system data 13). And make sure the change range in tapping travel less then 100BLU 4. Spindle using 1000 rpm, and adjust Pr. 419, to let the over cut depth value of holebottom close to 0.
