Integrators Basic Training
COURSE # TRCOLI-412 - 20 hours
CNC Integrators Basic Training
This online course is for machine tool builders and
integrators who want to get the most out of FANUC CNCs and
improve
their knowledge and skills when it comes to setting up and
programming CNCs and servo motors. This course covers basic CNC;
NCGuide and Ladder-III software; servo and spindle set up; and
system backup and restore. Students should have some experience
and
familiarity with integrating FANUC CNCs and access to a CNC
system
for some sections of the course. Students should also have
access to the full versions of NCGuide and Ladder-III software.
The training is broken into five major sections, or modules,
revolving around a particular theme. Each module consists
of
several lessons. The modules are CNC Basics, NCGuide, FANUC
Ladder-III, Servo and Spindle, and Backup and Restore.
CNC Basics
CNC Basics offers a general overview of the FANUC CNC control
system. The Block Diagram lesson explains how the main
components of the system work together and the CNC Orientation
lesson covers
the system hardware and shows how to navigate and use some of
the
screens. The Drive System lesson covers the general mechanics of
a machine. IO Types and Operator Interfaces are covered in the
final
lessons.
NCGuide
This module starts off with an introduction to NCGuide - FANUC's
CNC
application software running on a PC. NCGuide provides an
authentic and safe operation and part programming environment at
a
fraction of the cost of using a production machine tool. The
first
lessons cover setting up, configuring, and licensing NCGuide.
Next,
students are shown how to create CNC setups, install CNC
options,
set up Manual Guide i, and use the Setting Management tool to
administer the configurations of your NCGuide installations. The
final lessons demonstrate how to use NCGuide to develop PMC
logic
and use other FANUC programming tools to develop applications
off-machine.
FANUC Ladder-III
This section teaches students how to design and monitor ladder
logic
using FANUC Ladder-III software. In this module students
install and setup the software; create a new ladder; use
Ladder-III
to communicate with the CNC; use the software to create logic;
and
assign physical I/O addresses.
Servo and Spindle
The Servo and Spindle module covers the parameters and settings
needed to connect a servo motor and spindle motor to a CNC. In
this
module students will learn how to set the required parameters
and
settings, navigating through the screens and calculating the
proper
gear ratio settings.
Backup and Restore
This module explains the procedures for backing up all of the
data
that an integrator has to create: parameters, programs, ladder
logic, custom software, etc. Students also learn how to
restore the memory.
Estimated Time for Completing the Course
We estimate that students will average approximately 20 hours to
complete this course, including time to study the materials, to
take
the tests, and to do the exercises. Actual time will vary, of
course, based upon the student's prior experience and eLearning
aptitude.
Pricing
$550 per student. This course requires the student to have
the
full version of NCGuide as well as Ladder-III (not included).
