Ultimax System August, 2002 iii Getting Started with Ultimax Manual Sample Screens Some sample screens in this manual were captured on a stand-alone Ultimax system. The screens on your system may vary slightly. The Input screen below illustrates softkeys and includes the software version (circled below). Figure 1. Input Screen Ultimax screens have three areas of primary interest: • Softkeys on the right side of the touch screen. Available softkeys may change even when the text and data entry area does not. • Fields to the left of the softkeys. A field is an area that display or receives information entered by the operator. • Prompt and error message area at the bottom of the screen. In the sample screen above, the message area reads, “Select softkey or press <Enter> to change part program name.” iv Revision A Hurco Machining Centers Table of Contents Machine and Console Basics

    TECHNICAL GUIDE ã GRANLUND TOOLS 2002, REV 2.4 Page 1 The purpose of this manual is to explain not only how to use the complete range of tools, but also the particular features of each item in the system, indicating their advantages, disadvantages or any limitations on use. The different groups will be covered in: INTERCHANGEABLE TOOL SYSTEM page 1-3 TOOLHOLDERS page 4-5 COUNTERBORES page 5 COUNTERSINKS page 6 INDEXABLE CARBIDE INSERTS page 7 PILOTS / INSERT DRILLS page 8 CARBIDE REAMERS (BRAZED) page 8-9 SINGLE BLADE REAMERS page 9-11 BACKSPOTFACING SYSTEM page 12-13 CNC-TOOLS page 13-14 For information concerning dimension ranges, cutting conditions, regrinding information and drawings, please see our main catalogue. INTERCHANGEABLE TOOL SYSTEM OBJECTIVE The main objective with the Granlund modular tool system, is to provide the enduser with the possibility to easily build practically any special counterboring/ countersinking combination, using a wide range of standard components. In fact, with some 1300 components , the possible combinations are more than 1.500.000. Each tool is made by combining three parts: A. TOOLHOLDER B. COUNTERBORE or COUNTERSINK C. PILOT or DRILL Picture 1 GRANLUND TECHNICAL GUIDE ã GRANLUND TOOLS 2002, REV 2.4 Page 2 A. The same toolholder can be used in many different combinations. With 16 types of holders available, most applications can be covered. B. The counterbore or countersink is selected to suit the demands of each specific operation and material. In the catalogue you will find our recommendations for most cases. C. If the workpiece is predrilled, a pilot should be used, otherwise operation can be made with an insert drill.* * IMPORTANT! When step drilling, the drill must break through the workpiece before secondary cutting commences.

A burr is defined as a material that extends beyond the line of intersection of any two intersecting surfaces of a piece, caused by machining, drilling, sawing, or punching operations. Chamfers. The term chamfer is used to designate a beveled surface at an external edge; also the internal edge of a noncircular hole or a circular hole too large for countersinking tools. Counterbore. A counterbore is a flat-bottomed hole added to another hole about the same centerline, primarily used for the recessing of a bolt, screw, or other fastener. Countersink. A countersink is a conical-shaped or beveled edge given to a hole primarily to allow the seating of a flat-head screw or other fasteners. Free-state variation. Free-state variation is the amount a part distorts after removal of external forces applied during manufacturing.

A burr which is not removed may break off and damage bearings or gears. Over-carbonizing may result in excessive pressure being exerted on gear lateral surfaces causing a break. A hardened burr may lead to premature wear of tools in finishing operations. Removal of very sharp burrs removes the risk of tool handling injuries. Why roll? Rolling serves to remove build up on tooth flanks by plasic deformation during chamfering.
