A CNC program can be transferred from thedata server to the CNC's memory by simply copying and pasting. And it's even easier —large moldmaking workpieces can be executed right in the program manager, directly viathe company's network or a Compact Flash (CF) card.SinuTrain for SINUMERIK OperateSinuTrain training software makes SINUMERIK Operate even closer to reality on the PC,including the animated machine operator panel. The expertise you gain in the trainingcourse can be easily transferred into real life applications. This powerful tool facilitatesoffline programming at the PC — NC programs can be transferred directly to the CNC.Thanks to SINUMERIK Operate and the original SINUMERIK NC kernel, there are norestrictions in the operation, programming or execution of NC programs.usa.siemens.com/sinutrain12

Intelligent JOG modeTool and workpiece measuringTransparent tool managementIntuitive handling, shorter setup times — based upon an intelligent JOG mode andintuitive tool management, SINUMERIK Operate graphically and interactively supports allof the typical setup functions. This keeps unproductive times to an absolute minimum.Intelligent JOG modeIn SINUMERIK Operate, the intelligent JOG mode provides graphical, interactive support forevery typical setup function for turning and milling machines. This means that a tool can besimply loaded with just three clicks. On lathes, face turning of a blank or boring soft clampingjaws are directly realized in the intelligent JOG mode — without having to generate a partprogram. This means that non-productive times are reduced to an absolute minimum.Tool and workpiece measuringTool and workpiece measurement is optimally supported in the intelligent JOG mode. It issufficient to probe an edge, corner or holes in order to determine the clamping position,including the basic rotation of the tool — also in swiveled workpiece planes. Measuringtools is a simple procedure for the SINUMERIK CNC. Regardless of whether the tool geometryis simply ”scratched“ or determined using a tool measuring system, by pressing just one key,the geometry is transferred into the CNC’s tool offset memory.Transparent tool managementSINUMERIK offers the perfect command when it comes to tool management. Tool dataand magazine location are clearly displayed on the screen. A suitable magazine location isautomatically selected by simply selecting a tool and pressing a key — the SINUMERIK CNCdoes the rest. It goes without saying that each tool’s lifetime is monitored, and whenrequired, the appropriate replacement tool is loaded.13

The finest technology cycle packagesTurning, milling and moreMilling cycleContour machiningMeasuring cycleWith a powerful technology cycle package for turning and milling, Siemens MachineTool Systems proves its technological leadership in CNC technology once again.Technology cycles for every machining operationHigh-end solid contour machining and stock removalSINUMERIK controls offer a range of drilling, millingand turning cycles that are absolutely unique in themarketplace — from basic machining operations suchas centering, deep-hole drilling, milling circular pocketsand turning grooves, up to more complex machiningoperations such as engraving, deep-hole milling and thetrochoidal milling of hard metals. Based upon intelligentkinematic transformations, technology cycles are availableat all machining planes. For example, at the face orperipheral surfaces of turned workpieces, or in swiveledplanes of milling workpieces.In addition to standard geometries, when you useSINUMERIK CNC, even complicated geometries can bemachined without a CAD/CAM system — thanks to theintegrated geometry computer and intelligent stockremoval cycles. The range extends from the contourmilling of pockets with a maximum of 12 islands, up tocontour plunging on turning machines — and all of thiswith automatic residual material detection. This meansthat the ideal tools can be used for every machiningsegment. The result — ideal machining quality withsignificant time-savings.Multiple clamping for ShopMill machiningstep programmingMeasuring cycles for the highest precisionMilling machines become even faster and even moreflexible — ShopMill machining step programs can beautomatically compiled for multiple clamping withreduced tool change operations. CNC programs areautomatically generated — and multiple clamping issupported for both identical and different workpieces.Integrated measuring cycles ensure workpiece precisionduring the machining process. Tool geometries and workoffsets are automatically corrected, so that the requiredproduction tolerances are maintained even for high-batchquantities. The integrated recording function ensures thatthe workpiece quality is optimally documented. For 5-axismachines, a special measuring cycle determines the exactmachine geometry, which helps to compensate machinetolerances while workpieces are being machined.15
