6.9.7 Simulation with orientable toolholder

6-334
By superimposing the partial executions from the machining list on a
blank the section by section simulation mode only changes for the
sequence of machining sections in the graphic. There is no change in
the overall result.
The list of machining steps (for which an intermediate model is
available in the graphic module in the current simulation state) allows
direct selection of a section in the simulation. See also "Display and
colors"/Manage path labels.
The corresponding section is selected and confirmed with OK.
The simulation will start at the beginning of this section and is based
on the state which the preceding section was in the last time its
execution was completed.
The table shows the analysis of time computation from the
simulation and encompasses the specified sequence of execution
up to the current state of the simulated machining sections.
The computation table is in cumulated form and has taken the
defined downtime values into account (for T, S, M and H
functions if present); data is shown for the respective section
limits.
The section limits are marked with the associated ASCII label derived
from the "Stop label" (if present) or with M30 at the end of the
program. Times are computed at each section end.
Function
You can process part programs for orientable toolholders using the
simulation function. The following boundary conditions must be
observed:
·
The simulation distinguishes whether a toolholder Y has been
activated for a tool x.
·
Changes in the active toolholder are not detected. This is why
the simulation uses the toolholder kinematic set initially for a
tool y.
