PC Based
CNC Controller |
|
|
The MCL 10
lathe is operated under program control using a dedicated PC. The
user interface is an integrated development environment used for
entering part programs, simulating the resulting tool movements,
editing the part program as required and finally machining the
actual part. Actual machining operation is password protected and
electronically interlocked so that the supervisor is always in
control avoiding mishandling of the system by students. While
executing the Part program the MCLIO system scrolls the program
instructions and identifies the command line currently being
executed allowing the student to co-relate each instruction with the
machining operation.
The system allows entering of offsets to impart training in the
intricacies of tool wear and tool-nose radius compensation. Spindle
and Coolant Pump ON / OFF under program control using standard M
codes is provided. A special section on diagnostics allows the
student to quickly check and troubleshoot operation of the various
limit switches and individual axes motions. |

|
Simulate Utility |
|
| With
the Simulate Function provided in the MCL 10 trainer the student can
quickly check tool path motions on the PC screen and amend mistakes
before attempting to machine the part. This function reduces
development time and minimizes chances of machine damage and wastage
of materials |
|
The MCL-10 facilitates training in
Metrology |
|
|
A rewind / repeat function (M30
command) provided in the software of the MCL 10 Trainer Lathe allows
the student to produce several parts without
altering machine settings and
analyze the precision and tolerance achieved in the samples. This
feature enables training in metrology, inspections and quality
control aspects and can also be used for limited quantity production
runs. |
|
Robust Mechanical System |
|
|
The MCL 10
trainer lathe is built on a rugged and sturdy ground bed. Both axes
are driven by powerful stepper motors and ball screws which makes
cutting of steel possible. The MCL 10 is provided with a dual tool
holder and the system automatically selects the Tool specified
through standard T commands. The standard tool holder provided with
the system allows use of
ISO specified tool bits of any reputed make so that students can
learn the importance of appropriate tool selection for achieving a
variety of machining
objectives such as good finish or minimum machining time. Optional
tool holders are also available to operate with low cost local tools
to keep consumables costs at an affordable level. |
|
Safety and Emergency Stop |
|
|
The MCL 10 has in-built limit
switches which automatically inhibit motion beyond allowable limits
to avoid damage to the machine. An Emergency Stop provided on the
main machine is active all the time and will disable all motions and
spindle drive as soon as it is pressed. |
