Cycle 1017 DRESSING WITH DRESSING ROLL (option 156)

ISO programming

G1017

Application

 
Machine

Refer to your machine manual.

This function must be enabled and adapted by the machine manufacturer.

With cycle 1017 DRESSING WITH DRESSING ROLL, you can dress the outside diameter of a grinding wheel with a dressing role. Depending on the dressing strategy, the control performs the appropriate movements in accordance with the wheel geometry.

  • The cycle offers the following dressing strategies:
  • Reciprocating: lateral infeed at the reversal points of the reciprocating stroke
  • Oscillating: interpolating infeed during a reciprocating stroke
  • Fine Oscillating: interpolating infeed during a reciprocating stroke. After each interpolating infeed, a Z movement is performed without infeed in the dressing kinematic model.

This cycle supports the following wheel edges:

Grinding pin

Special grinding pin

Cup wheel

1, 2, 5, 6

Cycle sequence

  1. The control positions the dressing tool at the starting position with FMAX.
  2. If you have defined a pre-position in Q1025 PRE-POSITION, the control approaches the position at Q253 F PRE-POSITIONING.
  3. The control infeeds based on the dressing strategy.
  4. Dressing strategies

  5. After defining IDLE STROKES in Q1020, the control performs them after the last infeed.
  6. The control moves to the starting position with FMAX.

Dressing strategies

 
Tip

Depending on Q1026 WEAR FACTOR, the control divides the dressing value between the grinding wheel and the dressing roll.

Reciprocating (Q1024=0)

cyc1017_Q1024_0
  1. The dressing roll approaches the grinding wheel at the DRESSING FEED RATE Q1018.
  2. The DRESSING AMOUNT Q1013 is infed on the diameter at the DRESSING FEED RATE Q1018.
  3. The control moves the dressing tool along the grinding wheel to the next reversal point of the reciprocating movement.
  4. If other dressing infeeding is required, the control repeats processes 1 to 2 until the dressing process is complete.

Oscillating (Q1024=1)

cyc1017_Q1024_1
  1. The dressing roll approaches the grinding wheel at the DRESSING FEED RATE Q1018.
  2. The control infeeds the DRESSING AMOUNT Q1013 on the diameter. Infeeding is performed with interpolation at the dressing feed rate Q1018 with the reciprocating stroke up to the next reversal point.
  3. If there are more dressing infeed runs, then processes 1 to 2 are repeated until the dressing process is complete.
  4. The control then retracts the tool without infeed in the Z axis of the dressing kinematic model to the other reversal point of the reciprocating movement.

Fine oscillating (Q1024=2)

cyc1017_Q1024_2
  1. The dressing roll approaches the grinding wheel at the DRESSING FEED RATE Q1018.
  2. The control infeeds the DRESSING AMOUNT Q1013 on the diameter. Infeeding is performed with interpolation at the dressing feed rate Q1018 with the reciprocating stroke up to the next reversal point.
  3. The control then retracts the tool to the other reversal point of the reciprocating movement without an infeed cut.
  4. If there is more infeeding, then processes 1 to 3 are repeated until the dressing procedure is complete.

Notes

 
Notice
Danger of collision!
When you activate FUNCTION DRESS BEGIN, the control switches the kinematics. The grinding wheel becomes the workpiece. The axes may move in the opposite direction. There is a risk of collision during the execution of the function and during the subsequent machining!
  1. Activate the FUNCTION DRESS dressing mode only in mode Program Run mode or in Single Block mode
  2. Before starting FUNCTION DRESS BEGIN, position the grinding wheel near the dressing tool
  3. Once you have activated FUNCTION DRESS BEGIN, use exclusively cycles from HEIDENHAIN or from your machine manufacturer
  4. In case the NC program is aborted or in case of a power interruption, check the traverse directions of the axes
  5. If necessary, program a kinematic switch-over
 
Notice
Danger of collision!
The dressing cycles position the dressing tool at the programmed grinding wheel edge. Positioning occurs simultaneously in two axes of the working plane. The control does not perform collision checking during this movement! There is a danger of collision!
  1. Before starting FUNCTION DRESS BEGIN, position the grinding wheel near the dressing tool
  2. Make sure there is no risk of collision
  3. Verify the NC program by slowly executing it block by block
  • Cycle 1017 is DEF-active.
  • No coordinate conversion cycles are permitted in dressing mode. The control displays an error message.
  • The control does not graphically depict the dressing operation.
  • If you program a COUNTER FOR DRESSING Q1022, then the control performs the dressing process only after reaching the defined counter from the tool management function. The control saves the DRESS-N-D and DRESS-N-D-ACT counters for every grinding wheel.
  • Dressing tool table tooldress.drs (option 156)

  • At the end of each infeed run, the control updates the tool data for the grinding tool and dressing tool.
  • For the reversal points of the reciprocating movement, the control takes into account the retraction values AA and AI from the tool management function. The width of the dressing roll must be less than the width of the dressing wheel, including the retraction values.
  • The control does not apply tool radius compensation in the dressing cycle.
  • This cycle can only be run in dressing mode. The machine manufacturer may already have programmed the switch-over in the cycle sequence.
  • Simplified dressing with a macro

Input: 0...99999

Q1024 Dressing strategy (0-2)?

Strategy during dressing with a dressing roll;

0: Reciprocating; infeeding to the reversal points of the reciprocating motion. After the infeeding runs, the control executes a movement just in the Z axis within the dressing kinematic model.

Q1026 Wear on dressing tool?

Factor of the dressing value in order to define the wear on the dressing roll:

0: The full dressing value is removed on the grinding wheel.

>0: The factor is multiplied by the dressing value. The control takes the calculated value into account and assumes that this value will be lost during dressing due to wear on the dressing roll. The remaining dressing value is dressed on the grinding wheel.

Input: 0...+0.99

Q1022 Dressing after number of calls?

Number of cycle definitions after which the control performs the dressing process. Every cycle definition increments the counter DRESS-N-D-ACT of the grinding wheel in the tool manager.

0: The control dresses the grinding wheel during every cycle definition in the NC program.

>0: The control dresses the grinding wheel after this number of cycle definitions.

Input: 0...99

Input: –1...99999.9

Q1011 Factor for cutting speed? (optional, depends on the machine manufacturer)

Factor by which the control changes the cutting speed for the dressing tool. The control handles the cutting speed of the grinding wheel.

0: Parameter not programmed.

>0: If the value is positive, then the dressing tool turns with the grinding wheel at the point of contact (opposite direction of rotation relative to grinding wheel).

<0: If the value is negative, then the dressing tool turns against the grinding wheel (same direction of rotation of the grinding wheel).

Input: -99.999...99.999

NC programs contained in this User's Manual are suggestions for solutions. The NC programs or individual NC blocks must be adapted before being used on a machine.

  • Change the following contents as needed:
  • Tools
  • Cutting parameters
  • Feed rates
  • Clearance height or safe position
  • Machine-specific positions, e.g. with M91
  • Paths of program calls

Some NC programs depend on the machine kinematics. Adapt these NC programs to your machine kinematics before the first test run.

In addition, test the NC programs using the simulation before the actual program run.

 
Tip

With a program test you determine whether the NC program can be used with the available software options, the active machine kinematics and the current machine configuration.
