Class Topics:
This class introduces the YASNAC PC NC control for machine tool applications. The goal is to get a new PCNC application running using the default factory settings. A desktop CNC machine tool is available in the classroom for students projects. An emphasis is placed on hands-on exercises, which comprise almost half of the class. The basic application is documented using a "Run-Off" procedure. Topics to include but are not limited to:

Tour the YASNAC PC NC application Product overview Components of PCNC Control Installation and Set-up Boot up a new system Run and operation of PCNC Network Servo and Spindle Control Loops Test-running the SGDC Servo Test-running the M5 Spindle Other Control Methods Tuning Document the YASNAC PC NC application* Test-running the system "Run-off" test

* This class reinforces the concepts learned in the first 3 days of the YASNAC PC NC Basic class. The student will be responsible for documenting all aspects of a new PCNC system for a machine tool - machining center application. A new PCNC system is properly set-up and configured by performing a successful "Run-Off" report.
