First Time Setup

  1. Preparation
    Equipment inspection
    External inspection: Check whether the equipment is damaged and ensure that all parts of the equipment are intact.
    Power connection: Confirm that the power connection is safe and reliable, and ensure that the voltage meets the equipment requirements.
    Tool and material preparation
    Fixtures and tools: Prepare fixtures, cutters and other tools to ensure their quality and applicability.
    Material preparation: Prepare the raw materials to be processed and ensure that the material size and type meet the design requirements.
  2. Installation and connection
    Equipment installation
    Placement and positioning: Place the CNC equipment on a stable workbench, ensure that it is level, and check it with a level.
    Fix the equipment: If necessary, fix the equipment with bolts to prevent vibration during operation.
    Connect to computer
    Data connection: According to the equipment manual, connect the equipment to the computer or control system to ensure that the communication lines and interfaces are intact.
    Software installation: Install the control software provided by the equipment manufacturer to ensure that the software is compatible with the equipment.
  3. Software configuration
    Equipment parameter setting
    Initialization setting: Open the control software and perform equipment initialization settings, including selecting basic parameters such as equipment type, processing unit (metric or imperial), feed speed and cutting depth.
    Coordinate system setting: Set the machine coordinate system (workpiece coordinate system) to ensure the correct position of the parts of the workpiece material.
    Tool parameter setting
    Tool type and size: Set the tool type, diameter, length and material in the software to ensure that the tool parameters are consistent with the actual tool.
    Tool compensation: Set tool compensation according to the tool radius and tool type to ensure processing accuracy.
  4. Zero position and reference point setting
    Set the origin
    Mechanical origin: Confirm the mechanical origin manually to ensure that the machine’s motion trajectory starts from this point.
    Workpiece origin (zero point): Move the tool to the measurement position of the workpiece to be processed and set the zero point of the workpiece so that the software can recognize the workpiece position.
  5. Hydraulic and pneumatic system settings (if applicable)
    Hydraulic system inspection
    Hydraulic oil: Check the hydraulic oil level and add the appropriate amount of oil to ensure that the system works properly.
    Air pressure adjustment: Check and adjust the air pressure setting of the pneumatic components to ensure that the pneumatic clamping device is normal.
  6. Test run
    Test in non-cutting state
    Dry run test: Perform an empty run test without contacting the workpiece to ensure that all axes move smoothly and listen for abnormal sounds.
    Check the program: Check the processing program in the software to ensure that the program is consistent with the preset to avoid equipment damage due to program errors.
  7. Perform the first processing
    Select the material and clamp
    Fix the workpiece: Install the material to be processed on the workbench and fix it with a clamp to ensure that the material is not easy to move.
    Check the tool status: Confirm that the tool is in good condition and ensure that it is sharp and undamaged.
    Start processing
    Execute the processing program: Start the equipment and run the processing program, observe the cutting process, and ensure that no abnormalities occur.
    Monitor the processing process: During the operation, monitor the cutting effect and the working status of each part of the equipment at any time.
  8. Subsequent maintenance and records
    Record the first setting
    Record the log: Record the parameters set for the first time and the operating status of the equipment to provide a basis for subsequent optimization.
    Regular maintenance: Develop a routine inspection and maintenance plan based on the frequency of use and workload to ensure that the equipment is in the best working condition.
    Precautions
    Follow safety regulations: During the setup process, be sure to follow the equipment’s safe operating procedures and wear appropriate personal protective equipment (such as goggles, gloves, etc.).
    Check the manual: Always refer to the equipment’s user manual, paying special attention to any specific settings and safety warnings.
    Consult technical support: If you encounter unclear settings or common problems, contact the equipment manufacturer or professional technicians for support in a timely manner.
    Through the above steps, you can effectively complete the first-time setup of the CNC equipment and ensure that the equipment can perform processing operations safely and accurately.
