10.2 FCAS operation.
The collision control is activated/deactivated from the PLC. The user may do so using the
keypad if the OEM has been provided a button or key for this purpose. Additionally, the HD
graphics must be selected and the machine configuration must be loaded (xca file). Collision
control is not active if the STD graphics (Fagor standard graphics) are selected.
Automatic mode and MDI/MDA.
If the CNC detects that the tool is going to collide, it halts the execution of the program and
displays a collision limit reached error.
Manual mode.
The CNC will start to brake if the direction of the tool approaches a collision zone. The
movement will automatically stop when it reaches a collision point and “Collision limit
reached” message will be shown. When the collision zone is reached, with the axes idling,
the axes can only be moved again in the opposite direction in which they were moving toward
the collision zone until leaving the near-collision zone.
EDISIMU mode.
For a program simulation, the FCAS option can be activated or deactivated from the softkey
menu. If the CNC detects that the tool is going to collide, it halts the program simulation and
displays a collision limit reached error, indicating the program line and the block forcing the
collision.
Although the FCAS option reduces the risk of collisions, it does not guarantee that these are completely
avoided. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the user to ensure that there are no obstacles that could
cause a collision during the machining process, even when the FCAS option is active.
• The FCAS option does not monitor collisions for the part.
• The FCAS option only monitors collisions with the parts of the machine that the OEM has correctly
included (position, dimensions, etc.) in the machine configuration. The parts that have not been
included in the configuration are not supervised.
During braking, or if a movement in the direction of a collision is insisted on, the axis may go beyond
the safety zone.
