INTRODUCTION
A computer numerical control has a microprocessor based computer in the system to Store and process the data for the numerical control of motions of the machine tools. The NC system is the heart and brain of the CNC machine which enable the operation of the various machine members such as slides, spindles etc & also optimizes the matching with proper parameters involved in a matching operation. CNC systems are constructed with an NC unit integrated with a PLC.The NC controls the spindle movement and the machine such as solenoids, relay coils etc. working together. The NC & PLC enable the machine tool to operate automatically.

11

BACKGROUND
Development of CNC machines is an outstanding contribution to manufacturing industries. This has made possible to automate the machining process with flexibility to handle small to medium batch quantities in part production. CNC technology was applied on basic metal cutting machines. Later CNC machines capable of performing multiple operations were developed. Further, the concept of multi operations on the same machine was extended for cylindrical component machining and led to the development of turning centers and grinding centers.

12

OBJECTIVES OF CNC
The main objective of CNC machines was to reduce cost for production of machined parts. This has been achieved by CNC by reducing programming time, including operational capability of the NC systems in place & making the entire machining process more users friendly. CNC also achieved this objective by reducing machining time, fixturing cost & tooling storage, including cutter life & lowering the skills required to automatically produce precision-machined components. CNC has enabled accurate estimation of production process. CNC permitted more efficient shop scheduling, exact cost prediction higher facilities utilization, & more rapid return on equipment investment compared with less sophisticated machine control techniques or manual operations.

1. HOW CNC WORKS

Computer Numerical control is a computer-assisted process to control general purpose Machines from instructions generated by processor and stored in a memory system or storage media for present as well as future use.

1.1Numerical Control means - Control by Numbers.

Controlling Machines by numerical command has brought about a revolution in manufacturing .CNC can be adapted to any kind of machine or process that requires direction by human intelligence. This text deals with CNC milling centers, turning centers, Boring Machines & Grinding Machines.

CNC is a specific form of control system where position is the principal control variables numerical values, representing desired position of tools & symbolic information corresponding to tools & secondary function, are recorded in some form where the information can be stored and revised indefinitely. Hard drives tape readers & other converters transform this information into signals that ultimately operate servomechanism on each axis of machine whose motions are to be controlled. Today 32 & 64 -bit-bus Microprocessors directly coupled with production machines control systems are expanding both the Applications and the basic definition of numerical control

5. MOVEMENTS & MEASUREMENTS OF CNC AXIS SYSTEM

A system of rectangular coordinates also the CARTESIAN COORDINATE SYSTEM" is the basis for measuring CNC machine axis movement. All point position are described in terms of distance ROM a common point called as ORIGIN. (X0.000,0.000,Z0.000)& measured along certain mutually perpendicular dimension line called AXIS. It is only necessary when describing geometry of part to locate every point of part within a frame work of 3 such MAJOR AXIS called X, Y, Z axis.

MODES OF OPERATION:

CNC system can be operated in the following modes: 8.1. Manual mode 8.2. Manual data input (MDI) made 8.3. Automatic mode 8.4. Set up mode 8.5. Input/output mode

8.1. MANUAL MODE:

Here, movement of the machine slide can be done manually by pressing particular buttons. Selection of slide is done through an axis selector switch feedrate of slide movement is prefixed.

8.2. MANUAL DATA INPUT MODE:

Following operations can be performed: 1. Editing of the part program stored in system memory. 2. Building a new part program. 3. Entering tool offsets in the system memory.

8.3. AUTOMATIC MODE:

24

System allows execution of part program continuously. Part program is executed block by block while one block is read by the system, analyzed & kept ready for execution. Execution of the block can be continues or system will execute a block, stop execution of next block till it is initiated to do so. Selection of part program block by block (auto) or one at a time (single) is done through machine control panel. Block retrace is allowed when cycle stop state is established. Part program execution can be resumed and its execution begins with the retraced block. This is important for tool inspection.

8.4. SET UP MODE:

The m/c can be referenced to its home position so that all the compensation can be applied. Part programs are generally prepared in absolute mode with respect to the m/c zero.

8.5. I/O MODE:

The part program, m/c setup data, tool offsets etc can be loaded into memory of the system from external sources like programming units or floppy drives.

9. COMPENSATION FOR M/C ACCURACIES:

Machine accuracy is the accuracy of the movement of the carriages and tables and is influenced by: 1. The geometric accuracy of the alignment of the sideways. 2. The deflection of the bed due to load 3. Any temperature gradients existing through the machines. 4. The accuracy of the screw thread of any drives, screws and the amount of backlash. 5. The amount of twist of the shaft, which will influence the measurements of rotary transducers.

25

10. TOOL MOVEMENT MODES:

In a CNC/NC machines, usually the tool moves with respect to the workpiece which remains at the same place. In some cases, example in a milling machine, the workpiece moves with respect to the tool. However, from programmer point of view this aspect hardly makes any difference as only relative motion between the tool and workpiece is important. While writing programs it is always assumed that tool moves with respect to the workpiece. For the second type of the machine, the workpiece automatically moves in the opposite direction so as to produce the desired relative motion.

Three types of motion control are used in a CNC machine:

10.1. Point to point placement 10.2. Axial cut 10.3. Contour cutting

10.1. POINT TO POINT PLACEMENT:

Such a control simply places the tool over desired location in desired sequence. There is no control over the speed of tool movement between the selected points which always a fast traverses. This type of control can be used in drilling, punching or similar operations where the location of tool at the timing of operation is important.

10.2. AXIAL CUT:

This control allows the tool to move along any major axes with desired speed. Therefore cutting along x, y, z axes is possible. Limitation being simultaneous motion along two axes is not possible so it cant make angular cut.

10.3. CONTOUR CUTTING:

This is the most flexible but the most expensive type of control .It permits simultaneous control of more than one axes movement of the tool.

11. TOOL CHANGING DEVICES:

A number of tools may be required for making a complex part. In CNC machine, tools are changed through program instructions. Tools are fitted in tool magazine or drum. When a tool needs to be changed the drum rotates to an empty position, approaches the
26

old tool and pulls it , then it again rotates to position the new tool, fits it and then retracts . This is typical tool changing sequence of an automatic tool changer. Tool changing time is of the order of a few seconds this saves time and thus increases productivity.

11. WORK HANDLING DEVICES:

Some of the machining centers provide more than one separate pallets which can be of linear or rotary types. These pallets simply move or rotate or interchanging there positions on the machining table. While machining is being done on job kept on one pallet, the other pallets are accessible to the operator for clamping /unclamping raw material/ finished products. This saves a lot of material handling and set up time, resulting in higher productivity.

12. SPINDLE SPEED AND FEEDRATE SELECTION:

Let V = Cutting speed = Angular velocity of spindle N = RPM D = Diameter in mm Then cutting speed V = D/2 = DN/60 in mm/sec. A very high cutting speed reduces tool life due heat generation, whereas very low speed wastes machining time and may break the tool due to large cutting forces. So spindle speed should be properly chosen. Feed also should have proper value .a high value may break the tool due to large cutting forces, and surface finish also will be poor, where low wastes machining time. Usually for heavier cuts, slow RPM is recommended. The largest depth of cut with highest feedrate safely possible is selected. This reduces cycle time and has a negligible effect on the tool life. In any case costwise reducing the machining time is usually more important than increasing the tool life.

13. PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE:

The basic steps involved in an NC/CNC programming are:
13.1. Process planning. 13.2. Part programming.
27

13.3. Program entry. 13.4. Program verification. 13.5. Production.

13.1. PROCESS PLANNING:

The design /development department of manufacturing industry design a path and prepare its detailed drawing. For a simple part, three or even two orthographic views are sufficient to describe it fully. After the drawing is finalized the programmer carries out the task of process planning. Process planning is the procedure of deciding what operations are to be done on the component, in what order and with what tooling and work holding facilities.

13.2. PART PROGRAMMING:

The next step after finalizing the machining scheme is part programming the first step in part programming is to define a component zero point at a convenient location on the part this become the origin of the co-ordinate system for programming. The axis remains parallel to the machine axis. In the program, all the co-ordinates in the part drawing are specified with respect to this co-ordinate system. The program must follow the standard being used by the MCU (called simply controller also). FANUC controller has now become industry standard. Program written for a specific controller cant be used on a different controller. Where some of the commands (G and M codes) may have the different meanings. This text follows FANUC standard. So the given program can only be used on a FANUC machine.

13.3. PROGRAM ENTRY:

After the program is ready it needs to be transmitted to the MCU. The most common input medium has been one-inch wide tape over the past 40 years. Even today it is being used in some machines, though they have now being more or less completely replaced by the other media such as floppy disk. Most of the CNC machines provide both on line and offline software for program coding and simulation. Since programming takes substantial amount of time, one cant afford to engage a production machine for this purpose. Hence offline software is invariably used for programming using a standalone computer. These software provide necessary
28

editing features to make correction in the typed program once the program is ready and verified, it may be transferred to the machine through floppy disk

13.4. PROGRAM VERIFICATION:

Once the part program is entered on the machine and execution command is given for producing the part, the operator has no control over machine movements except minor modifications such as over riding spindle RPM and feed. In case of any undesired movement of tool, the machine can only be stopped through the emergency stop switch or the reset button .Any carelessness may result in serious damage to the machine so the program must be thoroughly verified before executing it on the machine for production.

13.5. PRODUCTION:
Production is the simplest part of a CNC procedure. The person responsible for this need not be a skilled worker. In fact one semi skilled worker may handle several CNC machines on the shop floor. CNC operator has to first check the tool position on the tool turret.If there is any discrepancy from the part program; he may either change tool positions on the turret or modify the program to correct the tool index no. The next thing to be done by the operator is tool offsetting. Infact as already mentioned the details of tool offset can be stored on a floppy disk, which can be reloaded in case of power failure or for a subsequent use on the machine Finally the operator has to check coolant level, air pressure extra.If every thing is okay he give the execution command for production.

In production many type of operation can performed on CNC such as:

13.5.1. Turning 13.5.2. Milling 13.5.3. Drilling etc.

29

13.5.1. TURNING: What is turning?

Turning is the machining operation that produces cylindrical parts. In its basic form, it can be defined as the machining of an external surface: 1. with the work piece rotating, 2. with a single-point cutting tool, and
3.

With the cutting tool feeding parallel to the axis of the work piece and at a distance that will remove the outer surface of the work.

Taper turning is practically the same, except that the cutter path is at an angle to the work axis. Similarly, in contour turning, the distance of the cutter from the work axis is varied to produce the desired shape. Even though a single-point tool is specified, this does not exclude multiple-tool setups, which are often employed in turning. In such setups, each tool operates independently as a single-point cutter.

Fig 13.5.1.1 principle of turning Nowadays, more and more Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machines are being used in every kind of manufacturing processes. In a CNC machine, functions like program storage, tool offset and tool compensation, program-editing capability, various degree of computation, and the ability to send and receive data from a variety of sources, including remote locations can be easily realized through on board computer. The computer can store multiple-part programs, recalling them as needed for different parts. A CNC turret lathe in Michigan Technological University is shown in the following picture.

30

Fig 13.5.1.2 turning operation on CNC

Our Equipment:
Our Actuator/Flexor system uses a magneto strict material known as Terfenol - D to provide nearly instantaneous elongation. The cutting tool is mounted in an aluminum flexor, which provides motion similar to a hinge, but without friction or backlash.

31

32

We have a Pentium based pc that is used to control the elongation of the actuator, a Power Amplifier to provide the necessary current to the actuator, and a compliment of sensors, including: Load Cells, Accelerometers, a displacement sensor, and other equipment. The total actuation system has a bandwidth of 1.8 kHz.

Here is a picture of the actuator in operation. The material being cut is an aluminum alloy. The actuator/flexor system is mounted to the tool holder turret of MTU's CNC lathe.

Fig 13.5.1.6 turning operation

13.5.2. MILLING: WHAT IS MILLING?

Milling is the process of cutting away material by feeding a work piece past a rotating multiple tooth cutter. The cutting action of the many teeth around the milling cutter provides a fast method of machining. The machined surface may be flat, angular, or curved. The surface may also be milled to any combination of shapes. The machine for holding the work piece, rotating the cutter, and feeding it is known as the Milling machine.
35

CLASSIFICATION OF MILLING: 13.5.2.1. PERIPHERAL MILLING:

In peripheral (or slab) milling, the milled surface is generated by teeth located on the periphery of the cutter body. The axis of cutter rotation is generally in a plane parallel to the work piece surface to be machined.

Fig 13.5.2.1.1 Introduction to Manufacturing Processes

13.5.2.2. FACE MILLING:

In face milling, the cutter is mounted on a spindle having an axis of rotation perpendicular to the work piece surface. The milled surface results from the action of cutting edges located on the periphery and face of the cutter.

13.5.2.3. END MILLING:

The cutter in end milling generally rotates on an axis vertical to the work piece. It can be tilted to machine tapered surfaces. Cutting teeth are located on both the end face of the cutter and the periphery of the cutter body.

36

14. METHODS OF MILLING:

14.1. UP MILLING: Up milling is also referred to as conventional milling. The direction of the cutter rotation opposes the feed motion. For example, if the cutter rotates clockwise, the work piece is fed to the right in up milling.

Fig 14.1 (Fundamentals of Machining and Machine Tools) 14.2. DOWN MILLING: Down milling is also referred to as climb milling. The direction of cutter rotation is same as the feed motion. For example, if the cutter rotates counterclockwise, the work piece is fed to the right in down milling.

37

fig 14.2.1 Fundamentals of Machining and Machine Tools The chip formation in down milling is opposite to the chip formation in up milling. The figure for down milling shows that the cutter tooth is almost parallel to the top surface of the work piece. The cutter tooth begins to mill the full chip thickness. Then the chip thickness gradually decreases.

Other milling operations are shown in the figure.

Fig 14.2.2 milling operations

15. MILLING MACHINE:

The milling machine is one of the most versatile machine tools in existence. In addition to straight milling of flat and irregularly shaped surfaces, it can perform gear and
38

thread cutting, drilling, boring and slotting operations which are normally handled on machine tools designed specifically for these specific operations

Fig 15.1 the Bridgeport CNC Milling Machine

16. MILLING CUTTERS:

A milling cutter is a cutting tool that is used on a milling machine. Milling cutters are available in many standard and special types, forms, diameters, and widths. The teeth may be straight (parallel to the axis of rotation) or at a helix angle. The helix angle helps a slow engagement of the tool distributing the forces .The cutter may be right-hand (to turn clockwise) or left-hand (to turn counterclockwise).The figure shows a typical end milling cutter.

CONCLUSION:
According to the analysis it has been assessed that the people have more faith in ESCORT, being a govt. concern, which can capture the maximum no of automobile market. But at the same time we should not ignore the growing popularity of other tractor manufacturing company. These are the main competitor of ESCORT in Faridabad & Gurgaon city. At present not a tough competition between all these but in the fourth coming year there will be a tough competition between all these companies. According to my survey I have taken the conclusion about the new scheme is that the price of tractor & machinery should not so high that a farmer cant afford it easily. But according to me is that there should be a good product at lower cost that fulfills the requirement of a farmer or the owner of the product. Company should have try to attract the consumers through the quality service and there supply services or some new attractive schemes etc. for standing in the market competition.
