FOREWORD
Biglia has allocated great efforts in working out this manual to make it exhaustive and easy-to-use
for the end-user
This manual describes and illustrates the various procedures that starting from the program allow
to accurately and safely machine a component on a CNC-lathe.
The Operator is asked to read through this manual attentively, to apply with the general
procedures described herein and observe the danger warnings when setting up the
machining cycle.
A hierarchy criterion has been adopted to classify the subjects and the relevant table of contents.
The sections of this manual are identified by a letter of the alphabet. The classification within each
section uses figures and dots to identify the hierarchical grades.
Example:

FRONT SLIDING DOOR INTERLOCK
A closed front door is the best protection for
operators against accidents which might occur
during manual operations or during the automatic
cycle.
Carefully read this chapter before operating the machine
The door interlock device allows the operator to work in safety locking the controls (spindle
rotation, movement of the axes, turret index etc…) when the machine is in the MANUAL mode and
the door is open.
We are aware that every customer machines any type of parts, using different and equipment and
tooling. In some cases, the door interlock device could be a constraint for the tooling-up man and
increase the time to set-up the work cycle.
To allow the tooling-up man to carry out some operations when the door is open, it is possible to
by-pass the safety protections select switch.
The operator is thus compelled to work with two-hand controls.
It is imperative that only one operator can be present during this
operation.
BIGLIA clarifies that though the door interlock device is intended to be one of the
main safety measures, machine operators are hold responsible for risky use or
by-pass of safety mechanisms.

Generally the new MEMORY CARDS are already formatted.
If not, you must format them.
Since a great variety of memory cards is on sale and updates are quite often, it is hard to identify a
unique format procedure that makes them readable from both the PC and the CNC.
Two possible solutions are listed hereafter :
a
MEMORY CARD formatting on PC (following PC instructions).
b
MEMORY CARD formatting on the CNC unit of the lathe.

TOOL SETTING ON THE SUB-SPINDLE BY
ELECTRONIC TOOL SETTER
If the lathe is equipped with an electronic tool setter, different procedures can be used to offset
tools on the sub-spindle. The procedure to be followed is always directly connected to the
programming in use and the tool type to be offset.
The paragraphs 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 describe the procedures to be followed.
2.1
Tool setting by electronic touch probe
Press key
2
HEAD 2
to carry out the procedure.
All tools (machining on the main- and sub-spindle) must be offset in sequence as described in
Section D Paragraphs 1.2 and 1.3.
This procedure requires two work shift origins: the first one for the main spindle and the second
one for the sub-spindle.
Enter the values of the two work shift origins in the part program:
o use block G10L2P1Z… (value of the shift origin for the main spindle) which must be
entered before starting machining on the main spindle,
o use block G10L2P1Z… (value of the shift origin on the sub-spindle) which must be entered
before starting machining on the sub-spindle.
NOTE: in the sub-spindle program machining is carried out in Z+ direction (while it was in Zdirection for the main spindle). When calling a tool machining on the sub-spindle the offset must be
associated following the rule below:
Ex. :
Machining on the main spindle T0101 ÷ T1212
Machining on the sub-spindle T0121 ÷ T1232

TOOL WEAR
This operation is made to assess insert wear during machining or to rectify
any possible errors found on the first workpiece.
It is typically carried out in “MDI” mode

even allowed during machining.
PROCEDURE
1.
Press the key
to display the OFFSET WEAR
page. Then press the soft key WEAR .
2.
By arrow keys move the cursor to the offset number
to be modified.
3.
Proceed as follows to modify X and/or Z : position
cursor on the X or on the Z. The minus value
(" – ") in X makes the workpiece diameter smaller.
The plus value (" + ") in X makes the workpiece
diameter larger. (The + sign is omitted).
Examples :

To reduce diameter by 0,2 mm enter :
– 0,2 and press soft key + ENTR
Press EXEC or DELETE to confirm.

To reduce machining depth in Z by 0,1mm enter:
0,1 and press soft key + ENTR.
WARNING : Cursor must always be positioned in the
correct offset and column.
NOTE:
a
For the Z-axis of the tools machining on the sub-spindle the signs + and –
must be reversed. The plus key (+) approaches to the sub-spindle; the minus
key (–) moves away from the sub-spindle.
b
Up to a maximum value of 0,999 mm can be modified. If a higher modification
is required, offset tool again.
c
When a tool is offset again, the previously entered WEAR value is
automatically offset.
d
The WEAR offset of the tool being used can be altered but the new value will
be enabled only when positioning for the first time in X or Z.

5. USING WORKPIECE COORDINATE SYSTEMS G54÷G59
The workpiece coordinate systems G54÷G59 make part programs easier where the WORKPIECE
REFERENCE POINT changes one or more times in the machining cycle.
Example:
Making a part machined with chuck and soft jaws, part tilting after the first setup and
finishing of the rear side; or machining from bar or chuck with the first operation carried
out on the main spindle and second operation on the sub-spindle.
NOTE:
a
When the machine is powered on, G54 is automatically enabled. To enable a
different origin, this must be called in MDI or from the program. After RESET or
M30 the origin G54 is enabled again. This is why it is highly recommended to set
the required origin in the part program for each tool change, particularly for
machinings having more than one origin.
WARNING: To set the origin G54÷G59 , it is imperative to activate in MDI mode the origin to
be set in conjunction with the tool offset used for this operation.

WORK TEST
2.1
No-load test
It is commonly recommended to carry out in automatic mode a block by block test without the
workpiece to be machined.
This test to be performed at closed door and coolant flow cut off (
flashing), allows to
check under reasonable safety conditions :




The positioning of tools
The direction of spindle rotation
The rapid and work traverse
The tool change spot and any interferences of tools both on the main and
sub-spindle or tailstock
The procedure is instructed at paragraph 2.3 "Test on the 1st workpiece".
If the workpieces to be machined require a very long cycle where only the last part must be
executed , it is advisable to perform a DRY RUN test as described in the following paragraph.

Cycle restart from an intermediate block after reset
After stopping the cycle with
“HOLD” and pressing
the machine can
theoretically restart from any program block and any axis or turret positions.
In practise, this operation is not correct, therefore the cycle can be restarted only from a block
of tool selection.
Example: Interruption of block 300 due to tool breakage, reset and axes moving to make insert
change easier.
N250 G1 X120;
N260 G0 G40 X250 Z100 G97 S600;
N270 T8;
N280 G96 S150 M3 P11;
N290 G0 X20 Z2 M8;
N300 G1 Z0 F .3; (interruption block)
N310 X30;
N320……………
You can restart from block N270, being careful that the tool can make the first movement
(block 290) without a collision. This operation can be done provided that in the following blocks
all those functions that have been cleared by a reset are repeated, i.e.




Tool and relevant offset.
Coolant ( M8 ).
Spindle rotation (G96 - S150 - M3 – P11).
Cleared tool radius compensation (G40).
If all these functions are not specified in the program, enter them in "MDI" mode before
restarting the cycle.
WARNING: Any work shift origins programmed by G55÷G59 etc… must be called.

If not, collisions may occur.

M30 is performed after machining of each individual component.
The total number of parts and the number of parts to be machined are incremented by one
when the M code set in parameter no. 6710 is performer.
It is possible to by-pass counting if M30 is executed (parameter no. 6700 bit 0 =1.
Note : Biglia sets parameter # 6710=90 so M90 is the M-code to increase the parts counter.

"B" AXIS LOAD DETECTION
This function allows to monitor the sub-spindle motor load. It is activated by M78 and disabled
by M79, both M-codes being entered in the part program.
It is used to avoid a bad crash between the sub-spindle and the workpiece when it moves
forward to catch the component from the main spindle. A collision can occur when:
 the sub-spindle collet has not been unclamped
 the diameter of the workpiece is larger than the diameter of the unclamped collet (the
finishing insert may have broken off)
 many chippings have accumulated in the sub-spindle collet
 the workpiece has not been ejected from the sub-spindle collet
The load value is stored in the variable # 1133 set in the part program before M78.
The value 255 indicates 100% of the value for the motor power.
Based on experience, the sub-spindle absorbs in slow traverse G1 G94 F2000 from 35% to
40% of the motor power. An approximate value to be entered ranges from 70 to 100.
Follow the example below to enter said value:

Displaying and setting protected data
Parameters and PMC data are meant to fully exploit the specifications of the servo motors as
well as the performance and features of the CNC-lathe.
Only some PMC data can be changed to tailor the lathe to particular requirements.
Whenever a parameter value or a PMC data is modified, it is a good practice to update the
original list. As a rule, the parameters must not be changed by the end user.
The parameter values and PMC data are supplied to the end user both on a CD and paper and
enclosed to the electrical schematics.

SYNCHRONISATION COMPENSATION UNDER
SYNCHRONOUS CONTROL "M62"
This procedure applies only to the CNC-lathes equipped with the sub-spindle
This operation is required only when the machined component must be transferred from the
main to the sub-spindle in a specific clamping angle (ex.: a polygonal workpiece, a component
clamped by eccentric collets etc…). To get a proper phase shift angle, it is recommended to
check the workpiece to be transferred.
WARNING : Before carrying out the angle setting procedure, the main and the subspindle should have been synchronized at least once using M62.
This operation can be done in MDI program :
