Machining Parameter Tuning (15-inch Display Unit) 

 
In AI contour control, by setting a velocity-emphasized parameter set 
and precision-emphasized parameter set and setting the precision level 
matching a machining condition such as rough machining or finish 
machining on the precision level setting screen or by programming, 
the parameters suitable for the condition can be automatically 
calculated to perform machining. 
On this screen, the parameter sets for emphasis on velocity (precision 
level 1) and emphasis on precision (precision level 10) can be set. 
Set the following parameters: 

 Acceleration rate of acceleration/deceleration before 

interpolation 

 

Acceleration change time (bell-shaped) 

 

Allowable acceleration change value for each axis in velocity 
control based on acceleration change under jerk control 

 

Allowable acceleration change value for each axis in acceleration 
change under jerk control in successive linear interpolation 
operations 

 

Ratio of the change time of the rate of change of acceleration in 
smooth bell-shaped acceleration/deceleration before interpolation 

 

Allowable acceleration rate 

 

Acceleration rate of acceleration/deceleration after interpolation 

 

Corner speed difference 

 Maximum 

feedrate 

 

Items that can be set freely (2 items) 

For details of each parameter, see the descriptions of AI contour 
control and jerk control. 
By setting bit 0 (MPR) of parameter No. 13601 to 1, this screen can be 
hidden. 
For the method of setting a precision level, see the description of the 
precision level selection screen in Subsection 12.3.27.

Procedure for machining parameter tuning 

Procedure 

Set the MDI mode. 

Press function key 

Press vertical soft key [NEXT PAGE] several times to display 
vertical soft key [MCHN TUNING]. The following screen 
appears: 

 

 

Fig. 12.4.25 (a) Machining parameter tuning screen (15-inch) 

 

4  Move the cursor to the position of a parameter to be set, as 

follows: 
Press page key 

 or 

, and cursor keys 

 and /or 

  to move the cursor to the parameter. 

Key in desired data then press the 

  key on the MDI panel. 

6  When data is input, a RMS value is found according to the 

precision level parameters. (The precision level can be changed 
on the precision level selection screen or parameter setting 
screen.) If a RMS value calculation fails, a warning (indicating 
that automatic setting failed) is displayed. 

Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all machining parameters are set. 

In addition to the setting method described above, a parameter 
setting method using horizontal soft keys is available. Pressing 
horizontal soft key [INIT] displays the standard value 
(recommended by FANUC) of the item selected by the cursor in 
the key input buffer. Pressing horizontal soft key [EXEC] 
initializes the item to the standard value. Pressing horizontal soft 
key [GROUP INIT] initializes all items of a group (emphasis on 
velocity or emphasis on precision) selected by the cursor to the 
standard values.
