Product Description

1.Product Appearance, Dimensions, and Interface Illustration

Note:

 

Explanation of Home/Limit Signal Inputs:

They share the same switch. When the machine is homing, it automatically functions as a home switch, but at other times, it serves as a limit switch.
All switch signals are wired in parallel and do not affect each other. When used as a hard limit, as long as one switch is triggered, the machine stops. It is recommended not to use the hard limit function; using the soft limit function is safer and more convenient.
When used as a home switch, each axis homes sequentially. After each axis homes, it automatically retracts a short distance to clear the current switch signal, ensuring it does not interfere with the homing of the next axis.

15)Supports Center Split and Fixed-Point Tool Setting.
16)Supports G54-G59 Workpiece Coordinate Viewing, Configuration, and Switching.
17)Provides a User-Friendly Interface for Manual G-Code Programming.
18)Enables Online G-Code Programming with the ability to run in a continuous loop or a specified number of times. Supports both linear and circular interpolation.
19)Offers Multiple Quick Machining Wizards: Including drilling (single point, list, rectangular array, circular array), tapping, helical strategy, Cut rectangular/corner rectangular, surfacing, circular pocket, rectangular/corner rectangular pocket, slotting, along with customizable options. These wizards can be easily configured with just a few simple parameters for automated processing, and they can be combined in various ways for different machining needs.
20)Supports 485I/O Expansion with up to 18 inputs and 18 outputs. Input  functions can be fully customized to meet specific requirements.
21)Supports Five-Axis RTCP Functionality: Automated tool change with automatic tool length measurement, and the ability to safely resume carving from a breakpoint while using RTCP (Rotary Tool Center Point) functionality.
22)Allows Configuration of Startup Auto-Run Options.
23)Adjustable Spindle Start Delay Setting.

 

4.Optional Activation Features: RTCP and 3+2

Pocender standalone CNC control system utilizes mature and stable RTCP algorithms from Heidenhain and Fanuc, making it easy and straightforward to achieve high precision, high-speed, and high stability while operating independently from a computer. These solutions are not comparable to open-source options that rely on computer-based supervisory control.

 

1)To Activate RTCP, Use the Following Code Format:

G43.4 H1 (Similar to Fanuc/Syntec, 1 indicates Tool #1, enabling Tool Length RTCP). To deactivate, use G49.

2)To Activate 3+2 Mode, Use the Following Code Format:

G68.2 X10 Y10 Z10 I10 J10 K10 (For AC/BC rotary table supporting 3+2, similar to Fanuc/Syntec, Euler angles ZXZ/ZYZ calculation method). To deactivate, use G69.

3)RTCP Structure Types:

AC Rotary Table, BC Rotary Table, B Swing A Rotary Table, B Swing C Rotary Table, A Swing C Rotary Table, CA Dual Swing Head, CB Dual Swing Head. Customization for other RTCP structure types is also supported.

4)Tool Magazine Functions Supported in RTCP (Installation of a Tool Setter Required):

a.For Swing Heads: Automatic/Manual Tool Change; Automatic Tool Length and Swing Length Measurement.

b.For Rotary Tables: Automatic/Manual Tool Change; Automatic Tool Length Measurement and Z Calibration Correction.
