Swiss Concept – It is difficult to teach programming without some core fundamentals reviewed
MC-Data review – An in-depth review of how the control uses the Citizen proprietary MC-Data information
Mode Selection – Deeply instruct all G600 command mode selection codes used on the specific machine of the class
Program Beginning and safety/start process
Program Ending with barfeed and ending codes
Class will review/write a program together to learn programming basics
Review many other programming codes and processes like peck drilling, threading, milling, tapping and others
Time permitting, attendees will write a program for a class part print and dry run or sometimes run their part
This is a programming class but the class will see setup of collet and guide bushing adjustment along with tool setting to understand the entire process.
