The control- The Fryer Siemens Touch 2200 CNC control provides an intuitive user interface that is excellent for turning applications.
Fast set-up cycles, one button hot keys, and built in probe cycles speed the set-up process.
Shop floor programming, G code programming, large program storage, and Ethernet connectivity speed the programming process.
3D solid model graphic verification, hand-wheel run, and easy interrupt speed the first article process.
The tool management page stores your tool information and allows tools to be given tool numbers or actual names like .500 drill or .375 CBD end mill. Each tool can be managed for wear and switched automatically when the tool run time is reached.
The part probe cycles makes part set-up simple. These cycles can also be used to measure the part and display dimensions on the screen, much like a CMM.
The High-Speed Machining option lets you select 3 settings for the velocity, accuracy or surface quality to produce the workpiece at extremely high speed.
Finally, this control includes 500 block look ahead and 1 millisecond block processing. After the part is programmed it can be simulated to show the operations and tool paths. Simulation will also work with programs brought in from a CAM system that were output in G code. Cycle time is displayed also.
