 031 Designation of Machine Groups
This function specifies the number of machine groups or axes groups that the CNC can control.

Controlled Axis If multiple paths are used, several paths can be formed into a group. By doing so, the group can share data, and if an
alarm is issued with a path, the other path(s) in the group can be stopped. A group of those paths is referred to as a
machine group.

Up to three groups can be used, depending on the type of CNC.

The following items are impacted by the machine group configuration:

• Emergency stop signal
• RESET on the MDI
• Operation performed when an alarm is issued

 039 Cs Contouring Control
Features
Controlled Axis
The Cs Contouring function controls the position of the serial spindle using the spindle motor in conjunction with a
dedicated detector mounted on the spindle.

The Cs contouring control function provides a higher precision than the spindle positioning function and enables
positioning with other servo axes. Namely, the Cs contouring control function enables linear interpolation between the
spindle and servo axes.

The speed of the serial spindle is controlled by the spindle speed control function, while the spindle positioning is
controlled by the Cs contouring control function ("spindle contouring control"). Spindle speed control rotates the spindle
using the velocity command, while the spindle contour control rotates the spindle using the move command.

Switching between spindle speed control and Cs contouring control is performed by signals set in the PMC. In the Cs
contouring control mode, the Cs contouring control axis can be operated either manually or automatically, in the same
way as normal servo axes.

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-MF and 0i-TF.

Benefits
• High-precision positioning of the spindle
• Interpolation between the spindle axis and the feed axes

 042 Peripheral Axis Control
Features
Controlled Axis
In addition to a main program, another program can execute during the automatic operation of the CNC. In this case,
peripheral axes such as loader and back drilling can be controlled in parallel with a main program.

The Peripheral Axis Control function has three control groups:

• Peripheral axis control group 1
• Peripheral axis control group 2
• Peripheral axis control group 3

Each group can run independently. Therefore, in a multi-path system, peripheral axis control can be applied to each path
independently by assigning different control groups for each path.

Benefits
• Increase of machine efficiency and productivity
• Speed up programming and CNC commissioning
• Complex motion commands are easier and faster to programm

 043 Synchronous and Composite Control
Features
Controlled Axis
The Synchronous and Composite Control function enables an arbitrary axis of one path to be synchronized with an
arbitrary axis of another path (synchronous control). In a multi-path control, movements are usually made on the axes of a
path according to a move command for the path (independent control in each path).

With Synchronous and Composite Control, a move command for an arbitrary axis of one path and a move command for an
arbitrary axis of another path can be exchanged with each other to make a movement on each axis (composite control).

By applying a move command for an axis (master axis) to a different arbitrary axis (slave axis), the movements on the two
axes can be synchronized with each other. Whether to synchronize the movement on a slave axis with the move command
for the master axis or make a movement on a slave according to the command for the slave can be chosen using the
signal (synchronous control selection signal) from the PMC.

A move command for an arbitrary axis of one path and a move command for an arbitrary axis of another path can be
exchanged with each other to make a movement on each axis.

Benefits
• Increase of machine efficiency and productivity
• Speed up programming and CNC commissioning
• Easier and faster programming
• Allows complex commands and synchronization between paths

 044 Superimposed Control
Features
Controlled Axis
Superimposed Control enables the travel distance on an arbitrary axis of one path to be superimposed on the travel
distance on an arbitrary axis of another path. In multi-path control, usually, movements are made on the axes of path 1
according to a move command for path 1, and movements are made on the axes of path 2 according to a move command
for path 2 (independent control in each path).

Superimposed control is very similar to synchronous control. In superimposed control however, a movement on the slave
axis can be specified with a command for the path to which the slave axis belongs. The master axis and slave axis may
belong to the same path, or the master axis may belong to one axis and the slave axis may belong to another. Moreover,
multiple slave axes can be specified for one master axis. WIth the help of parameter settings, the move directions on the
master axis and slave axis can be reversed from each other.

Example: in the image a move command for the Z1 axis of path 1 is superimposed on the travel distance on the Z2 axis of
path 2.

Benefits
• Increase of machine efficiency and productivity
• Speed up programming and CNC commissioning
• Complex motion commands are easier and faster to programm

 045 Superimposed Control A
Features
Controlled Axis
For a slave axis under superimposed control, a travel distance specified by the program for the master axis path is added
to a travel distance specified by the program for the slave axis path.

As a consequence, the actual speed on a slave axis is significantly higher than the ordinary speed ("ordinary speed" means
a speed such as a parameter-set rapid traverse rate).

To prevent this, feedrates and a linear acceleration / deceleration time constant in rapid traverse can be set for use only
during superimposed control with this function.

Benefits
• Simplifies the control in superimposed mode

 051 Parallel Axis Control
Features
Controlled Axis
When a machine tool is featuring multiple heads and multiple tables, machining multiple workpieces with the same shape
at the same time on these multiple tables, multiple controlled axes having the same axis name can be operated at the
same time by the use of a move command that specifies only one program axis.

This operation is called parallel operation. Two or more axes which operate in parallel at the same time upon the
execution of a command that specifies only one program axis are called parallel axes.

The Parallel Axis Control function is effective in MEM mode, MDI mode, and manual numeric commands in machining
center with one path. In manual operation, the parallel function can not be used. Each controlled axis operates
independently.

In parallel operation, controlled axes related to one program axis operate in the same way. With the use of an input signal
sent from the machine side, only the specified axis is selected among multiple parallel axes and operated (parking).

Notes:
Parallel axis control function is limited to machining center with one path only.

Parallel axis control function does not support the following motion functions:
• Smooth interpolation
• Nano smoothing
• 3-dimensional coordinate system conversion
• 3-dimensional tool compensation
• Tool length compensation in tool axis direction
• Tool center point control
• Tool posture control

 089 Chuck and Tail Stock Barrier
Features
Controlled Axis
The Chuck and Tail Stock Barrier function prevents damages to the machine by checking whether the tool tip interferes
with either the chuck or tail stock.

This is realized when specifying an area into which the tool may not enter (entry-prohibition area). This is done using a
special setting screen, according to the shapes of the chuck and tail stock.

If the tool tip would enter the set area during a machining operation, this function stops the tool and outputs an alarm
message. The tool can be removed from the prohibited area only by retracting it in the direction from which the tool
entered the area.

Note: when Stored Stroke Check 2 or 3 option and Chuck / Tail Stock Barrier option are used at the same time, the
Chuck / Tail Stock Barrier option is valid and Stored Stroke Check 2 or 3 is ignored.

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-TF.

 090 Interference Check for Each Path
Features
Controlled Axis
The Interference Check function checks the tool posts of multiple paths for collision possibilities.

When tool posts on individual paths machine the same workpiece simultaneously, the tool posts can approach each other
very closely. If the tool posts interfere with each other due to a program error or any other setting error, serious damage
such as tool or machine destruction can occur.

If a command that could causes that the tool posts of paths to interfere with each other is specified, the function gradually
stops the tool posts before the tool posts actually interfere with each other.

The contours and shapes of the tool posts on individual paths are checked to determine whether or not interference
occurs.

This function enables an interference check between two paths or interference check among multiple paths. The number
of paths to check can be determined by parameter setting.

Benefits
• Protection of the machine
• Ease the programming of multi-path systems
• Reduction of the downtime

 092 Built-In 3D Interference Check
Features
Controlled Axis
The 3D Interference Check function is an advanced anti collision function. The function is implemented directly into the
CNC and has extremely rapid interference check in real time. The success in avoiding collisions is almost 100% - even
when setting up or in manual mode. This function is available for both milling and turning machines and is particularly
recommended for 5 axes machines or complex machines.

The critical working area of a machine can be emulated using geometric elements (planes, rectangular parallelepipedes
and cylinders) that are defined using absolute dimensional data (to the micron) and work in conjunction with the
programmed tool data taken from the normal CNC memory. The CNC will use this spatial data to determine whether any
moving part of the machine may collide with fixed elements such as the table, fixtures and machine structure. All this
occurs in realtime.

The collision can be checked by detecting the interference among machine parts such as tool, work-piece and table in
three dimensional space in real time. This function is the measure for an expensive workpiece to be protected from being
damaged. This function is also useful in manual operation, for example, for protection against malfunction during setup.
Thus, the time required for setup can be reduced.

With the M series, the interference check targets include a tool, tool holder, workpiece, jig, and table. With the T series, the
interference check targets include a single point tool + tip, tool post, workpiece, chuck, and spindle.

 102 Linear Scale Interface with Absolute Address
Reference Mark
Controlled Axis
Features
The Linear Scale Interface with Absolute Address (Distance Coded) Reference Mark function, an absolute position can be
identified with a distance coded linear/rotary encoder.

For calculating the absolute position the axis must detect minimum 2 reference marks. In this case, a reference position
can be established at any position of the axis by short distance movement.

A/B-phase Interface - Absolute Address Referenced Mark

• The encoder with Absolute Address Referenced Mark (A/B-phase) interface requires the SDU (Separate Detector
Unit).
• The encoder is then used as separate feedback
• In this case a fully closed system is created

Serial type Interface - Distance Coded Reference Marks

• The encoder with Distance Coded Reference Marks and with sinusoidal 1Vpp interface requires the High Resolution
Serial Output Circuit (type C)
• If the High Resolution Output Circuit is connected to the servo amplifier, then the encoder is used as motor feedback;
in this case a semi-closed system is created
• If the High Resolution Output Circuit is connected to the SDU, then the encoder is used as separate feedback; in this
case a fully closed system is created

Note for the Linear Scale with Absolute Address Reference Mark Expansion function: when a G00 command or a move
command based on jog feed are specified, this function enables a reference mark interval measurement to be made
automatically in order to establish a reference position.

Benefits
• Simplified integration of distance coded scales
• Increase of the precision of the machine tool

 104 Temporary Absolute Coordinate Setting
Features
Controlled Axis
In a full–closed system with a built–in absolute position detector (serial pulse coder) and incremental linear scale, a
coordinate system can be set up using the absolute position data received from the built–in absolute position detector
when the power is switched on.

After the startup procedure, the position control is carried out using the linear scale with incremental data.

Since the machine position obtained immediately after the power is switched on is tentative, obtaining the accurate
machine position requires making a manual reference position return.

For safety reasons and before a reference position return is made, this function enables a stroke limit, although the
machine position obtained when the power is switched on is approximate.

 108 Multi-Axes Synchronous Function (Power Motion i-
A)
Controlled Axis
Features
The multi-axes synchronous function allows axes (child axes) to synchronously follow up the operation of a reference axis
(parent axis) with a certain speed ratio (gear ratio)

This function not only facilitates simplification of gears and other mechanism but also allows the speed ratio to
be changed freely during operation, therefore enabling operations that could not be performed with conventional
mechanisms.

Benefits
• Since the speed ratio (gear ratio) is determined by command data of the PMC axis control, operations that frequently
change the gear ratio or the direction of movement can be performed.
• The speed ratio (gear ratio) is set by specifying the amount of a parent-axis movement and the amount of a child-axis
movement separately rather than specifying a ratio directly, so the problem of fraction processing does not occur. As
a result, the synchronization relationship does not deviate even after rotation is performed continuously.
• Axes can have a hierarchical structure not only having a parent-child relationship but also having grandchildren and
further lower levels as long as the maximum allowable number of axes is not exceeded.
• The parent-child relationship of axes is established by setting parameters considering safety.

 112 Pressure and Position Control Function
Overview
Controlled Axis
The pressure and position control function enables a positional control command and pressure control command to
be executed at the same time. The function is an axis control function that automatically selects and exercises position
control based on a positional control command when no force is applied to the tool in an axis direction, and automatically
selects and exercises pressure control based on a pressure command when an external force is applied to the tool in an
axis direction.

For example, the function enables the tool to approach a workpiece in an axis direction by using position control until the
tool touches the workpiece. The function can then exercise pressure control with a specified pressure while the tool is
touching the workpiece in the axis direction. When the tool is separated from the workpiece, the function can move the
tool to a specified position by position control.

With the Power Motion i-A, this function requires high-speed response characteristics, so that the optional function of the
HIGH RESPONSE FUNCTION is needed.

Analog Monitor Unit

The 'Analog Monitor Unit' is connected to FSSB line to input an analog current signal to Power Motion i-A in combination
with the 'Pressure and Position Control Function'. There are 4 analog current input cahnnels available on the unit. The
maximum total number of 'Analog Monitor Units' and 'Separate Detector Interface Units' that can be connected to an

 114 Servo-On Synchronize Function
Features
Controlled Axis
Conventionally, for a coasting axis under a servo-off condition, when the servo-off signal is released to set a servo-on
condition while a move command is entered, a step for canceling an accumulated amount of servo position error is
triggered. The step involves abrupt deceleration and then acceleration, preventing a smooth start of the move command.

This feed function uses the actual rate at the instant of servo-on condition setting as an initial rate, thereby starting
operation smoothly at a specified acceleration or deceleration.

 141 Manual Handle Retrace
Features
Operation
The Manual Handle Retrace function allows, during automatic operation, that the operator debugs execution of the part
program by simple and intuitive manipulation of the Manual Pulse Generator (MPG).

Using forward and reverse directions, the operator can isolate the problem area and observe the tool path; it can be done
at a speed appropriate for accurate observation.

Benefits
• Operating the machine via the MPG allows the operator to check for errors in the part program.
• The operator controls the speed of program execution via simple and intuitive manipulation of the MPG hand-
wheel and multiplier switch, and controls direction of execution via the MPG polarity switch. This allows for close
observation of the path at a suitable speed.
• Manual Handle Retrace may be used to isolate and check out a specific portion of the part program: it is not required
that the entire program be subjected to Manual Handle Retrace operation.
• Manual Handle Retrace allows the operator to halt execution close to a problem spot in his program. It is not
necessary to stop at a precise block, since forward and reverse execution is available to zone in on the problem.

 142 Manual Handle Retrace for Multi-Path
Features
Operation
In the Manual Handle Retrace for Multi-Path function, when the operation of re-forward movement is performed after
backward movement, it is possible to adjust the timing of all path’s movement to that of original forward movement.

In manual handle retrace function, when backward movement is prohibited to in a path, and other paths continue the
backward movement, if re-forward movement is performed later, all paths start the re-forward movement immediately,
therefore the timing of block movement in each path is different from original forward movement.

In this function, when re-forward movement is performed after backward movement, the path in which backward
movement is prohibited doesn’t start re-forward movement immediately. After other paths reach the position where the
backward movement is prohibited, the re-forward movement of this path is performed. Therefore, in multi path, block
movement of each path in re-forward movement can be performed at the same timing in forward movement.

Benefits
• Provides the Manual Hande Retrace benefits to a complex Multi-Path system
• Operating the machine via the MPG allows the operator to check for errors in the part program.
• The operator controls the speed of program execution via simple and intuitive manipulation of the MPG hand-
wheel and multiplier switch, and controls direction of execution via the MPG polarity switch. This allows for close
observation of the path at a suitable speed.
• Manual Handle Retrace may be used to isolate and check out a specific portion of the part program: it is not required
that the entire program be subjected to Manual Handle Retrace operation.

 165 Smooth Tolerance Control
Features
Interpolation
Smooth Tolerance Control improves the surface quality and accuracy of parts with free-form surfaces, which are often
Functions found in die/mold machining. Free-form surfaces are usually approximated by a sequence of multiple small linear
elements. This leads to the undesired consequence that the transitions between linear blocks are visible on the surface of
the workpiece after machining.

Smooth Tolerance Control has a sophisticated algorithm which converts a sequence of multiple small blocks
automatically into a smooth curve which approximates that sequence within a given tolerance. This eliminates the surface
artifacts and leads to a smoothly finished surface.

Smooth Tolerance Control detects corners in the path automatically. If a corner is detected, it is also converted into a
smooth curve within a distinct tolerance. High-quality and high-precision machining is achieved with this feature.

Users can machine a workpiece that meets individual specifications by simply defining the two tolerances stated above.
This saves time spent on fine-tuning the machined surface. Whether the path to be machined belongs to a free-form
surface where a smooth finish is required, or to a corner where the priority is set on precision is determined automatically,
meaning that both requirements ca be fulfilled simultaneously.

Benefits
• Enhance surface quality of machined parts
• Simplify fine-tuning of surface quality

path errors due to acceleration / deceleration delay, servo positioning delay, and mechanical and electro-mechanical
machine performance constraints.

Without this function, machining profile errors would increase proportionally with the programmed path feedrate. In
practice, this function is useful when cutting on complex part forms involving sudden cutter direction changes such as are
found in die / mold machining.

Benefits
• Optimization of machining speeds using smooth acceleration / deceleration to minimize axis-overshoot errors
• Decrease of part-form tolerances suppressing acceleration / deceleration delays and servo lag
• Elimination of corner-clipping errors that typically increase as the feedrate increases.

 234 Jerk Control
Features
Feed Functions
Whereas the rate-of-change of velocity is referred to as Acceleration, the rate-of-change of acceleration is technically
known as Jerk. Jerk is therefore the third derivative of Position, with Acceleration the second and Velocity the first.

Wherever a part program causes a significant change in cutter-path direction, such as in a transition from a straight line
to curve, any axis acceleration that is required to maintain a constant cutter-path vector feedrate through that transition
may cause vibration or shock to be induced into the machine structure.

The Jerk Control function can be used to reduce shock and any resultant position error from sudden axis acceleration.
Jerk Control temporarily modifies the cutter-path vector feedrate by applying a smoothing effect progressively modifying
the rate-of-change of acceleration (Jerk).

Without using Jerk Control, Bell-Shaped Acceleration alone would apply a harsher, constant rate-of-change, acceleration
profile. The permissible rate-of-change of acceleration (Jerk) is set by CNC parameters for each machine axis; these
limits are usually set in advance by the machine-tool-builder. Any velocity adjustments applied by the Jerk Control
function are calculated as true positional commands and hence incur only minimal acceleration or deceleration delays
(Acc/Dec Before Interpolation).

Benefits
• Reduction of machining errors caused by shock and vibration induced into the machine structure that result of
sudden changes in axis acceleration

 235 Rigid Tapping with Bell-Shaped Acceleration/
Deceleration
Feed Functions
Features
Linear acceleration / deceleration and exponential acceleration / deceleration (for milliling / M type only) have
conventionally been used to realized to rigid tapping.

Using bell shaped acceleration / deceleration enables a machine-friendly tapping. The use of smaller time constants for
the tapping cycle is required by the fact that the time required for acceleration / deceleration is shorter than with linear
profile.

Since this bell shaped acceleration / deceleration is a rapid traverse bell shaped type, parameters are used to specify a
linear acceleration / deceleration time constant and the time for a bell shaped curved section.

Note: in three-dimensional rigid tapping, bell-shaped acceleration/deceleration is disabled, and linear acceleration /
deceleration is applied.

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-MF and 0i-TF.

Benefits
• Smoother movements during tapping operation
• Diminution of the wear of tools and mechanical structure
• Improvement of the overall machining productivity

 236 Optimum Torque Acceleration/Deceleration for
Rigid Tapping
Feed Functions
Features
The Optimum Torque Acceleration / Deceleration for Rigid Tapping function can flexibly set the acceleration and
deceleration of the cutting in the rigid tapping according to the torque characteristic of the spindle motor and the machine
characteristic such as the friction.

The acceleration and deceleration performance (hereafter the maximum acceleration line) which can be output is usually
not symmetric in a low-speed part and a high-speed part because of the torque characteristic of the spindle motor and
the machine characteristic.

The conventional acceleration and deceleration (linear / bell-shaped) has a symmetric acceleration and deceleration. The
acceleration/deceleration of this function is realized so that the real acceleration pattern may approach the maximum
acceleration line as much as possible. The performance of the motor is drawn out to its maximum by this, and the cutting
time can be shortened.

However, when the rigid tapping is used in an acceleration constant range of the spindle motor, shortening the cutting
time cannot be expected. It is possible to execute the rigid tapping with the acceleration and deceleration along the
maximum acceleration line by setting the acceleration line pattern in the parameter of each gear. The acceleration and
deceleration of pulling out uses the same acceleration line pattern as them of the cutting.

Benefits
• Optimization of the rigid tapping processing
• Increase of the tapping and cutting performation of the machine
• Increase of the overall productivity of the machine

 237 Programmable Rapid Traverse Overlap
Features
Feed Functions
Rapid Traverse Overlap function reduces cycle time by starting the next rapid traverse block before the previous rapid
traverse block ends, when continuous blocks with rapid traverse command are given.

Here is an overview to the two added functions of Programmable Rapid Traverse Overlap:
• Programmable rapid traverse overlap: the amount of rapid traverse overlap can be changed by setting the feed rate
reduction ratio to a system variable in a part program. This enables an optimal overlapping effect for each rapid
traverse path of the machining program.
• Rapid traverse overlap between threading cycle blocks: shortened cycle times become possible by overlapping rapid
traverse blocks during the threading cycle. As shown in the right figure, rapid traverse overlap is executed between
"3.Retract and 4.Return" and between "4.Return and 1.Positioning".

 242 Smart Adaptive Control
Features
Feed Functions
The Function Smart Adaptive Control optimizes the feed rate during machining depending on the load and the
temperature of the spindle. The spindle motor power can be exploited optimally that way, especially at roughing
operations. The feed rate is optimized by three different types of control:

Constant spindle load control:

The feed rate increases if the spindle load (as detected by the spindle load meter) is below a specified threshold and vice
versa. This reduces cycle time on the one hand and prevents tool damage on the other hand.

Overheat avoidance control (type A):

The feed rate decreases if the spindle temperature is going to exceed its maximum temperature. Overheat alarms are
avoided, leading to less down time.

Overheat avoidance control (type B) (Constant duration time control):

The feed rate decreases if the remaining duration time of the spindle is shorter than a specified threshold and vice versa.
The available spindle motor power is utilized effectively while keeping a small performance buffer at the same time.

Benefits
• Reduce cycle time
• Prevent damage to machine and tools
• Minimize downtime

 245 Dynamic Switching of Diameter/Radius
Specification
Program Input
Features
The Dynamic Switching of Diameter/Radius Specification function enables the user to switch between diameter and radius
programming by using a PMC signal or G code.

When turning is performed, the cross section of a workpiece is usually a circle. The size of the circle may be specified by
its diameter or radius. When the diameter is specified, it is called diameter programming and when the radius is specified,
it is called radius programming. Whether to use radius programming or diameter programming is chosen for each axis by
setting a parameter.

There may be cases where some coordinates or program items for an axis in diameter programming mode should
preferably be handled in radius programming mode. This function enables the user to switch between diameter
programming and radius programming by using a signal or G code command. The user can thus handle coordinates,
program items, and other settings for an axis in diameter programming mode as well as in radius programming mode.

Features
Program Input
The Custom Macro function (similar to Basic programming) allows programming of G code with variables, logical
expressions, conditional loops. It also allows to read/write machine status to/from the NC program. Custom Macro is
required for probing applications.

Although subprograms are useful for repeating the same operation, the custom macro function also allows use of

pocketing and user-defined canned cycles. A machining program can call a custom macro with a simple command, just
like a subprogram.

An ordinary machining program specifies a G code and the travel distance directly with a numeric value. With a custom
macro, numeric values can be specified directly or using a variable number. When a variable number is used, the variable
value can be changed by a program or using operations on the MDI panel.

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-F.

 273 Tilted Working Plane (TWP)
Features
Program Input
Tilted Working Plane is used on 5 axes milling machines to define a plane, tilted relatively to the machine table. When a
figure such as a hole or pocket is cut on a plane, tilted relatively to the reference surface of the workpiece, this function
defines a coordinate system (referred to a "feature coordinate system") tied to the plane.

When specifying a position in such a coordinate system, a program can be created in a much easier way. A feature
coordinate system is defined on a workpiece coordinate system. See the figure below for the relationship between a
feature coordinate system and workpiece coordinate system.

This function is applicable to the "table type" machine configuration of the Robodrill.

Tilted Working Plane Command with Guidance

With this enhancement of the "Tilted Working Plane" command, the following commands can be programmed using a
specific graphical screen:
• Euler's Angle
• Roll-Pitch-Yaw
• Three points
• Two vectors
• Projection angles

The guidance screen for tilted working plane command creates a tilted working plane command block after the machine
operator has entered tilted working plane data on an interactive screen. With this function, a complicated tilted working
plane command block can be easily created.

Benefits
• Addition of TWP command to the CNC
• Simplification of the programming for 5 axis machines
• Improvement of the overall machining productivity

 295 Real Time Custom Macro
Features
Program Input
Used with an NC program, the real time custom macro function controls peripheral axes and signals.

If a macro statement is used together with an NC statement, a program using the conventional custom macro function
executes the macro statement immediately when the macro statement is read. So, the macro statement cannot be
executed independently of the NC statement.

On the other hand, the real time custom macro function enables the following control operations when a real time macro
command (RTM command) is coded in an NC program.

Key functions
• A real time macro command starts operation in synchronism with the NC statement and is executed independently
During NC program execution, a real time macro command can be executed at the same time.
• PMC interface signals can be read and written (with a restriction). In an NC program, a motion using a signal as a
trigger can be coded
• Variables dedicated to a real time macro command can be read and written
• A real time macro command can exercise axis control
• Multiple real time macro commands can be executed at the same time. Multiple real time custom macro statements
can be coded in an NC program and can be controlled independently of each other

 366 High-Speed Smooth TCP
Features
Tool Functions / Tool
Under Tool Posture Control, the tool posture is controlled every moment for operation on the plane formed by the tool
Compensation postures (tool length compensation vectors) at the start point and the and point of a block.

This control method is suitable for machining a plane with the side of a tool using the tool center point control.

Adding to the Tool Posture Control, the High-Speed Smooth TCP function generates and interpolates smooth surfaces
from commanded tool center points and tool postures.

Traditionally, when a free surface is machined by Tool Posture Control, the free surface is approximated by polyhedrons
(left illustration). When using the Smooth TCP, the free surface can be machined with smooth surfaces and the machining
quality can be improved (right illustration).

This feature is suitable for machining free surfaces with tool side using Tool Center Point control. This feature has two
modes, one is Speed priority mode in which speed has higher priority and the other is Surface quality priority mode in
which quality of machining surface has higher priority. One of those modes can be selected by a command.

Benefits
• Shorter cycle times (in extreme cases, time savings of up to 44%)
• Smoother surfaces

 370 Tool Radius / Tool Nose Radius Compensation
Features
Tool Functions / Tool
The Tool Radius Compensation function can offset a programmed tool path by the tool radius set in the CNC when
Compensation machining is performed.

When the radius of the tool to be used for machining is measured and set as the offset value in the CNC, the tool moves
along the offset path to cut a programmed profile. As a consequence, when the tool diameter changes, only the offset
value needs to be changed and it is not necessary to modify the program.

To obtain the actual offset tool path, the CNC internally calculates intersections of a straight line and a straight line, an
arc and an arc, and a straight line and an arc automatically. The programmer only has to program a machining profile,
therefore the programming can be done very easily

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-F.

 373 Cutting Point Interpolation for Cylindrical
Interpolation
Tool Functions / Tool
Features
Compensation
The Cutting Point Interpolation function for Cylindrical Interpolation provides an easy use of the cutter compensation when
performing cylindrical interpolation.

The conventional cylindrical interpolation function controls the tool center so that the tool axis always moves along a
specified path on the cylindrical surface, towards the rotary axis (cylindrical axis) of the workpiece. The Cutting Point
Interpolation for Cylindrical Interpolation function controls the tool so that the tangent of the tool and the cutting surface
of a contour always passes the rotation center of the workpiece.This means that the cutting surface of the contour is
always perpendicular to the cylinder.

With this function, the figure on the cutting surface can always be kept constant regardless of the cutter compensation
value of the tool used.

As shown on the picture the tool is controlled in the offset axis (Y- axis) direction that is perpendicular to the tool centre.

Benefits
• Addition of cutting capabilities for cylindrical shapes

 383 Automatic Tool Length Measurement
Features
Tool Functions / Tool
The Automatic Tool Length Measurement function provides the capability to automatically measure tools. The difference
Compensation between the coordinate value of tool when the tool end has reached the measuring position and coordinate value of the
measuring position is automatically measured, calculated and added to the currently set tool offset amount by CNC
system.

The machine must be equipped with measuring devices, for example touch probe, so that a signal is sent when the tool
end has reached the measuring position.

The image shows an example of how the measuring position coordinate value is controlled.

When G37 is specified, the tool moves from the start point to the deceleration position by rapid traverse. Then, from the
deceleration position, the tool decelerates to a parameter-set measurement federate and moves until the approach end
signal is issued from the measuring device. The tool movement stops when the tool tip has reached the measurement
position.

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-MF.

 407 Periodical Secondary Pitch Error Compensation
Features
Accuracy
The Periodical Secondary Pitch Error Compensation is used when there is a gear between the motor and shaft of the axis
Compensation of travel.

Functions To compensate for pitch errors, the compensation for the pitch error due to the rotation of the gear is superimposed on
the compensation for the pitch error per rotation of the rotary table. If the gear between the rotary table and the servo
motor is of a single stage, as shown below, the stored pitch error compensation is used for the compensation for the pitch
error of the toothed wheel A and Periodical Secondary Pitch Error compensation is used for the pitch error of the toothed
wheel B.

If there is a multiple-stage gear, as shown below, the stored pitch error compensation is used for toothed wheel A
and Periodical Secondary Pitch Error compensation is used for the cyclic pitch error that occurs in each pitch error
compensation interval of toothed wheel A.

Although a rotary table is used as an example here, Periodical Secondary Pitch Error compensation can be used in the
same way when the machine is moved along a linear axis using a gear. For example, in a configuration such as that shown
below, stored pitch error compensation is used for the compensation for the pitch error of the drilling hole and Periodical
Secondary Pitch Error compensation is used for the compensation for the pitch error of toothed wheel A.

 409 Inclination Compensation
Features
Accuracy
The Inclination Compensation function, also called "Gradient Compensation", may be super-imposed on the stored pitch
Compensation error compensation to reduce the number of points that must be entered for stored pitch error compensation.

Functions Three approximate straight lines are formed with four parameter specified compensation points and compensation
amounts related to the respective compensation points.

Inclination compensation is carried out along these approximate straight lines at pitch error compensation intervals. The
inclination compensation amount is added to the pitch error compensation amount.

To perform inclination compensation, the Stored Pitch Error Compensation must be set for the axis subject to
compensation. Unlike the Stored Pitch Error Compensation function, whose amount is set up for an individual
compensation point, an amount of inclination compensation is calculated for individual compensation points by setting up
four typical points and compensation amounts for them.

This function can be used to reduce the number of stored pitch error compensation points that must be entered for long
ball screws.

Benefits
• Increase of the precision of systems with long ball screws and large machiens
• Improvement of machine precision
• Increase of production quality and overall machine productivity

 410 Straightness Compensation
Features
Accuracy
The Straightness Compensation function is used to compensate the alignment of two perpendicular axes.
Compensation In straightness compensation, similarly to Inclination compensation, four typical pitch error compensation points (a,

Functions b, c, and d) are selected from pitch error compensation points and specified as straightness compensation points, and
compensation amounts are set up only for these four points.

For pitch error compensation points between straightness compensation points, the CNC calculates and outputs amounts
that match straightness compensation. Straightness compensation largely differs from Inclination compensation in that
the moving axis is not a compensation axis; Inclination compensation is applied directly to the moving axis.

This relationship is specified by a parameter (for example, to apply compensation to the Y-axis as movement occurs along
the X-axis).

 423 Spindle Electronic Gear Box (EGB)
Features
Hobbing / Electronic
A gear can be shaped (grind/cut) by the synchronization of the workpiece axis rotation to the tool axis (grinding axis / hob)
Gear Box rotation using two spindles as a tool axis and a workpiece axis. To synchronize these two axes, the Electronic gear box
(EGB) is used.

In the Spindle EGB, the synchronous pulse is produced from the feedback pulse of the position detector attached to the
tool axis (master axis) in the motor control, and the workpiece axis (slave axis) rotates with the pulse. Feedback pulse
from Master side to Slave side is forwarded by the communication between spindle amplifiers.

The specifications of the Spindle EGB control are as follows:

1. The Spindle EGB synchronization is started by specifying T command (number of teeth) and L command (number of
hob threads), which determine the synchronous ratio, in G81 block. The Spindle EGB synchronization is canceled by
specifying G80.
2. The synchronous ratio is calculated from T and L command in G81 block and the number of position detector pulses
per rotation about the tool and the workpiece axis (parameter setting).
3. This function has the retract function like the hobbing function.
4. The cutting helical gear is performed by specifying Q command (module or diametral pitch) and P command (gear
helix angle) in G81 block.
5. The Spindle EGB synchronization is maintained regardless of whether the operation is automatic or manual.

Benefits
• Addition of the Electronic Gear Box function to Spindle
• Simplification of the programming
• Improvement of the overall machining productivity

 424 Flexible Synchronization Control
Features
Hobbing / Electronic
The Flexible Synchronization Control function applies to hobbing machines and other machines that require
Gear Box synchronization of multiple sets of axes with various gear ratios.

This function allows up to four individual sets to be synchronized independently. This can implement features specific to
the hobbing machine such as synchronization between hobbing axis and a workpiece axis, Z-C synchronization in helical
gear cutting, and Y-C synchronization in hobbing axis shift.

The specifications of flexible synchronization control are as follows:

1. The master axis number, slave axis number, and gear ratio are set in parameters.
2. There are four groups of these parameters. Synchronization of four groups can be performed at the same time.
3. For multiple master axes, one slave axis can also be specified.
4. Synchronization is started and canceled by DI signals from the PMC. When DI signal switching is to be made during
automatic operation, a parameter-set M code must be used.
5. The two Cs axes can also be used as a master axis and slave axis.
6. The two Cs axes can also be used as a master axis and slave axis.
7. Feedback pulses of the spindle operating as the Cs axis can be used for feed per revolution. The command format is
G95P_;, where P_ is the axis number of Cs axis.

 432 C-Axis Control
Features
Punch Press
The C-Axis Control function consist of the following functions:
Functions • C-axis control (die angle indexing)
• C-axis synchronization control
• C-axis offset function

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-PF.

C-axis control (die-angle indexing)

For predetermined dies (tools) on a turret, the angular position of the die can be changed with a command from a tape, a
memory or MDI.

In the past, it was necessary to use many dies when the die shape is the same but the die arrangement is different. Even
in such a case, this new function makes it possible to conduct the operations only with one die since the function can
freely change the angular position of the die. Further, since chamfering of four corners of a workpiece can be performed
only with one die, the time required for die change is reduced, resulting in shorter machining time.

Further, in pattern function for a circular geometry bolt hole circle, arc pattern, and arc nibbling function, the C axis is
automatically controlled so that one side of the die always faces the center of arc at each punching position.

C-axis synchronization control

The C–axis synchronization control function enables operation of the punch section of the die in sync with the die section
of the die by using a separate servo motor for each section.

C–axis synchronization control simultaneously issues the same command to both servo motors. So, synchronization error
correction, normally required to detect and reduce deviation between the two servo motors during synchronous operation,
is not applied. In C–axis synchronization control, the master axis is referred to as the C1–axis, and the slave axis as the
C2–axis.

C-axis offset function

For the punch press, a tool is used which allows the angle to be changed according to the machine. This type of rotary
Notice tool is subject to CNC C–axis control. A C command is used to change the angular position of a tool. When a machine

Functions a tool, it is necessary to index the magazine containing the required tool holder to the position at which the tool is changed
with a T command and to set the tool holder on the punch holder at that position.

In the multiple–tool system, however, one tool holder contains different types of metal dies. This makes it possible to
change tools by simply moving the relevant tool holder. The multiple–tool system, therefore, reduces the time taken to
change tools and enables a larger variety of tools to be used, enhancing the range of machining that can be performed.

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-PF.

Benefits
• Increase of the flexibility and efficiency of the machine

Features
Laser Functions
In nozzle attitude control, as shown in the diagram of the axis configuration of the nozzle head, the β axis motor is
arranged around the Z axis. In the case of a structure which transmits by gear, if the α axis is commanded, the housing
rotates and the nozzle rotates around the Z axis.

However, simultaneously at this time gear β must rotate around gear α. This movement results in the nozzle being rotated
by the β axis.

Namely, if the α axis rotates by an α axis command, a rotational operation simultaneously occurs at the β axis.

Interaction control is the function to automatically generate commands in the β axis of the same amount as the α axis
commands in order to cancel the rotational operation of the β axis for a nozzle head of axis configuration such that the β
axis rotates by the α axis commands. The command polarity can be selected by parameter.

 526 Energy Saving Level Selection Function
Features
Setting and Display
The total power consumption of a machine is the sum of:
• Power consumption of the spindle motors
• Power consumption of the servo motors
• Power consumption in peripheral devices (coolant pump, etc.)

Suppressing torque at acceleration / deceleration in spindles, where a large power consumption is generated, can reduce
whole power consumption of a machine. The drawback is that it has an influence on the machining time.

When using the Energy Level Selection Function, it is possible to switch between machining with shorter time and that
with less power consumption.

In addition, the function provides screens to monitor the energy consumption of the spindles, servo motors and
peripherals in real time.

Benefits
• Monitoring of the consumption of the machine and identification of the source
• Adjustment of the ratio between productivity and energy consumption to optimize costs

 554 Step Sequence Function
Features
PMC System
The standard PMC programming style on FANUC CNC is the Ladder Programming. This ladder language has been
available since many years, and always improved to match the growing demand in complexity.

The ladder method is most often used for programming the sequence control governed by a programmable controller.
This method was derived from relay-panel control circuits. Since it has been in use for years, many sequence control
engineers are already familiar with it. This method is also used in PMC sequence programming.

A large-scale system requires a large program and a greater number of processes, to control the overall process. In
addition optional step sequence method is available for some PMC models, to describe the order/flow of the overall
process (see image).

Step sequence
Step sequence method has been created to describe programs structurally. It is well-suited to the control of entire
processes and provides an easy-to-understand visualized flow of the process. The step sequence programming features
the direct representation of the control flow on a flow chart. Each block of processing is described as a subprogram, using
the ladder method. The entire program is then created by combining these subprograms.

In step sequence programming, a sequence control program is divided into two types of subprograms, steps and
transitions. Steps describe processes. Transitions connect steps and determine whether the transition conditions from
one step to another evaluate true.

Step Sequence is also called Structure Function Charts (SFC) or Gracet.

capacity or may cause compatibility issue with other functions. In case of doubt, contact your

 558 PMC Function Block Function
Features
PMC System
A Function Block (also called FB) is a block of a Ladder Program defined in advance in a library that contains a particular
process ( or function).

It is possible to place a defined Function Block in other ladder program and set the required input / output parameters to
execute the function.

By defining a frequently used function as a Function Block, it is possible to reuse the function easily thus reducing the time
required for programming and increasing the development efficiency.

In addition to the above, program diagnosis can be performed without displaying the detailed program in the function
block, which is very efficient to decreases the amount time required to maintain the machine.

This function is a basic function in FANUC Series 0i-F.

Benefits
• Reduction of the PMC program development time
• Reduction of the time required to maintain the machine
• Overall improvement of the efficiency and productivity

 564 Test Mode Function for Dual Check Safety
Acceptance Test
Machine Safety
Features
Functions
When designing a machine, a machine builder must document the safety system. A safety confirmation test called
“Acceptance Test” must be performed to confirm whether the safety function of a machine works correctly.

During the Acceptance Test, it must be confirmed that an alarm is generated correctly and a machine stops safely, when
the machine is placed in not safe condition intentionally.

When the Acceptance Test is performed in a conventional manner, the power of CNC must be turned off and on every time
a safety related alarm of Dual Check Safety function is generated and the safety parameter is rewritten. This requires a
significant amount of time, especially when the power is turned on and off.

With the Test Mode Function, it is not required to turn the power on and off at each safety alarm generated. In this case,
the time required to perform the Acceptance Test is greatly reduced.

Following functions are allowed in an Acceptance Test mode:

• When the safety parameter is changed, the changed parameter is effective without turning the power-off.
• Even if the safety related alarm is generated, the alarm state can be released by the reset operation without turning
off and on the power of the CNC

Benefits
• Faster process of Acceptance Test

 584 FL-net
Features
Communication
The FL-net network on Ethernet is also known as JEMA Open PLC network - 2 (OPCN-2). The FL-net interface board and
function provide an easy way to setup the system installation and the connection to popular PLCs and equipment using
FL-net.

FL-net can interconnect various types of controllers such as programmable controllers (PLC), robots, CNC and personal
computers of many different manufacturers to control and monitor them.

Function highlights:
• Multi-vendor environment using an open network: FL-net conforms to open standards so that communication
devices manufactured by different vendors /manufacturers can communicate with each other.
• Large-scale network: up to 249 communication devices (nodes) can be connected to share data.
• Two communication functions are available: FL-net supports both the common memory and message
communication. The common memory communication uses cyclic data transmission to allow the nodes to always
share the same data. The message communication allows the nodes to exchange only required information on
demand.
• Large-capacity common memory: 8K bits + 8K words (a total of 17K bytes) of large-capacity common memory can be
shared among all nodes.
• Fast response: FL-net provides a fast response of 50 ms/32 nodes (at 2K bits + 2K words/32 nodes).
• High reliability: each node can participate in or be disconnected from the FL-net at any time. In this case, the power
to each node can be turned on or off without problem and can provide high maintainability. The masterless token
method allows communication to be continued without stopping the network by the token management, if a failure
occurs in a communication device.
• Low cost: the use of cables for Ethernet can reduce the cost of communication devices such as transceivers and
hubs as well as on cabling.
• High maintainability: various types of management tables are available. The management tables can be referenced
to identify a faulty node quickly.
• Additional FANUC enhancements to FL-net: increase of the transmission speed from 10Mbps to 100Mbps,
simultaneous FL-net and Ethernet communication on the same network (CNC Screen Display, File Transfer, FANUC
LADDER-III, etc.)

Notes:
• The Ethernet hardware of the CNC supports several concurrent protocols and connections. Refer to the connection
manuals for details and limitations that may exist.
• The PORT 2 function provides the capability to operate the same function on different hardware boards at the same
Notice time. Example: if the FL-net function and the FL-net PORT 2 functions are specified, the FL-net function can be

 586 FL-net Safety
Features
Communication
In a machining system such as a transfer machine or a networked manufacturing cells, stations are each equipped with
an operator's panel having an emergency stop button or other safety rellated signals.

Traditionally, it is necessary to implement a separate hardwired safety circuit for the entire system so that, when the
emergency stop button at any station is pressed, the emergency stop signal can be transferred to all CNCs.

When using the Safety function on FL-net, the transmission of safety-related signals connected to safety circuits to
multiple CNCs connected via FL-net is provided on a single network. In this case, the system cabling is simplified, the
setup and commissioning is accelerated and the total cost of the system is reduced.

The Safety function of FL-net is an additional function of the Dual Check Safety function of the CNC. It operates on two
CPUs as the Dual Check Safety function does. Refer to "Dual Check Safety" section of the catalogue for further details on
the safety functions of the CNC.

Basic elements of the Safety function by FL-net are redundant nodes on the sending side and the receiving side. A safe
circuit for the line is implemented by the combination of these nodes. The sending node adds proofing data to each of the
redundant signals of the safety circuit and sends these signals safely. The receiving node checks the proofing data and
cross-checks the received signal data to ensure that there is no error in the FL-net communication.

Benefits
• Simplified connection of Robots, CNC and PLCs with Safety Function transmitted over the FL-net network
• Simplification of the architectures
• Acceleration of the system installation and commissionning
• Improvement of machine flexibility and increase of the system efficiency / productivity

Features
Software
NCGuide and NCGuide Academic Package are FANUC's CNC software running on a PC. They are available with single or
multiseat licences. This is the ideal solution for a dedicated training room or development team.

NCGuide

NCGuide provides a realistic operation and part programming environment at a fraction of the cost of using a production
machine tool. This translates into lower training costs. It supports both conventional G-code programming, including
canned cycles and custom macros, and FANUC's conversational programming, MANUAL GUIDE i.

Comprehension and retention is enhanced as students perform repetitive hands-on exercises in an ergonomically friendly
environment - away from the noise of the factory floor. Operators, programmers, and maintenance engineers can all
practice common procedures and develop optimized processes without risks to people, tooling or machines.
• The simulation emulates the CNC exactly, which means programs can be written, tested and optimized on the PC
bringing productivity gains by working offline and keeping the machine in production.
• Simulators fit to a classroom situation and so both educational and industrial training is easily implemented
resulting in better educated and highly motivated staff.

NCGuide provides a superior software development environment for FANUC CNCs, by adding the PMC ladder and
machine signal simulation capabilities, and support for the standard FANUC operator panel. When combined with other
FANUC software development tools (FANUC LADDER III, FANUC PICTURE, C- and MACRO EXECUTER), NCGuide provides
a more efficient development environment that an actual CNC.

 623 Cycle Time Estimate Function for NCGuide
Features
NCGuide
The Cycle Time Estimation Function is a Personal Computer tool that can quickly estimate the machining cycle time of NC
program. With this function, the following estimations are delivered by the software (refer to illustration):
• Travel distance (1)
• Cycle time (2)
• Path drawing (3)

Key highlights
• The accuracy of the estimation made is higher than estimations made with 3rd party software; the reason of this
higher accuracy is that the cycle time is calculated including the acceleration / deceleration
• The target program can be selected and the NC parameter can be set as on a real machine and CNC using
NCGuide / NCGuidePro
• The machining time of a complex program can be estimated, for example from a 5-axis machining cycle

Details of the estimated data

Because not only the entire cycle time of specified NC program but also time of rapid traverse and cutting, as well as
distance are calculated, the tool provides a very efficient method to optimize machining cycles, decrease the processing
time and extend the tool life.

The Estimation Function is available for the program of machining center and one path and provides the following details:
• Entire processing time
• Rapid traverse time
• Cutting feed time (calculated with the time of acceleration / deceleration but without taking in consideration the lag
provided by the servo motors, the spindle and the machine time)
• Processing time of miscellaneous functions (the total of the time of each M/S/T/B code set beforehand is multiplied
at the entire processing time
• Macro processing time (Custom Macro and Execution Macro can be executed except that the macro processing time
is not included in the entire processing time)
• Rapid traverse distance
• Cutting feed distance (traveled distance of the tool center point is calculated)
