HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 Basic Knowledge 1.1
Axis directions and reference points
Axis directions
X axis: the cross slide is referred to as
the X axis. All X-axis values that are
displayed or entered are regarded as
diameters.
Z axis: the saddle is referred to as the
Z axis.
Traverse motions:
Program a positive value to depart
the workpiece.
Program a negative value to
approach the workpiece.
Reference points
The machine datum (M) is the origin
of the machine coordinate system. As
a rule, the machine datum is at the
intersection of the Z axis with the
spindle surface.
The workpiece datum (W) is the
origin of the workpiece coordinate
system. As a rule, the workpiece
datum is at the intersection of the Z
axis with the end surface.

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 Basic Knowledge 1.2
Lathe design
Tool in front of or behind the workpiece
Depending on the design of the lathe, the tool is either in front of or behind the workpiece. The
MANUALplus 4110 detects the design of your machine, and takes the position of the X axis into
account for the graphic support, the simulation and the machining of the workpiece.
Tool in front of the workpiece
Tool behind the workpiece
This documentation assumes a lathe with tools in front of the workpiece.

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 Basic Knowledge 1.3
The coordinate system
Two-dimensional coordinate system
C axis
Accuracy
Positions can be programmed to an accuracy of 1 µm (0.001 mm) or 0.001°. This is also the
accuracy with which they are displayed.
The position of the tool tip is clearly
defined by its X and Z coordinates in a
two-dimensional coordinate system.
The MANUALplus 4110 recognizes
linear and circular contour
elements. A workpiece contour is
programmed by entering the
coordinates for a succession of points
and connecting them with linear or
circular contour elements.
The coordinates entered for the axes X
and Z are referenced to the
workpiece datum.
Angles entered for the C axis are
referenced to the datum of the C axis.

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 Basic Knowledge 1.4
Tool-tip radius compensation (TRC)
Programmed paths of traverse are
referenced to the theoretical tool tip
S. The radius of the tool tip on lathe
tools causes inaccuracies when
machining tapers, chamfers and radii.
These inaccuracies are removed with
the cutter radius compensation. A
new path of traverse (the equidistant
line) is calculated to compensate for
this error.

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 Basic Knowledge 1.5
Feed rate and spindle speed
Feed rate
You select from the following methods:
Feed rate per revolution in mm/rev
The feed rate depends on the spindle speed. The tool is moved at the programmed value for
each spindle revolution.
Feed per minute in mm/min.
The feed rate is independent of the spindle speed. The tool constantly moves at the
programmed value.
Spindle speed
You select from the following methods:
Constant spindle speed
You program the spindle speed directly. The spindle speed is independent of the diameter the
tool is working on.
Constant cutting speed
You program the spindle speed indirectly. The MANUALplus 4110 changes the spindle speed
depending on the diameter momentarily being worked on by the tool. This results in a constant
cutting speed.
Example:
Constant spindle speed:
Sections 1 to 3: identical spindle
speeds
Constant cutting speed:
Section 1: High spindle speed
Section 2: Constantly decreasing
spindle speed
Section 3: Low spindle speed
Maximum speed (speed limitation):
If the constant spindle speed that you program is greater than the specified maximum
spindle speed, the maximum speed is valid.
For constant cutting speed the speed is limited by the defined maximum spindle
speed.

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 System Operation 3.1
Menu selection, soft keys
Menu selection (9-field box)
The MANUALplus 4110 presents cycles, tools and functions in the Machine and Tool
Management modes as a 9-field box. Each field of this symbol corresponds to the numerical key
that is located at the same position on the control’s numerical keypad.
The meaning of the symbol / menu item is also described in the footer.
Example: The “4” key calls the Roughing cycles, longitudinal/transverse submenu.
Soft keys
A bar at the bottom of the screen shows you the meaning of the soft keys. Press the
corresponding key to call the function.
Soft keys as toggle switches:
Some soft keys work like toggle
switches. The status that they activate
remains until it is switched off again.

Distance-to-go display
Distance-to-go display for cycle and program execution: The distance remaining is calculated
from the current position and the target position of the active traversing command, and displayed.
Distance-to-go display in Manual mode
Axes are traversed with the handwheels: The distance-to-go is not displayed
Axes are traversed with the jog keys with protection zone monitoring active: The distance-to-
go for the Z axis refers to the protection zone position

to-go refers to the software limit switches
The machine data display is configurable. The display on your screen may therefore
deviate from the example shown.

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 System Operation 3.6
Switch-on and traversing the reference marks
Switching on the machine
Axis and spindle enabling
The axes are enabled after the drives are switched on. You can traverse the axes per handwheel
or with the axis direction keys. (On some machines protective covers and guard doors must be
locked for the axes to be enabled.)
Colors of the identification letters:
White identification letters: Axes are not enabled
Black identification letters: Axes are enabled
Main switch on
In the screen dialog line, the
MANUALplus 4110 shows you step by
step how to proceed when starting the
system.
Symbol indicating the existence of current
PLC status information
Call the PLC status display:
Press the Info key
(On some machines the PLC status
display is called automatically.)
Switch the drive on
(the PLC status display closes
automatically)

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 System Operation 3.7
Switch-on and traversing the reference marks
Traversing the reference marks
For machines with standard encoders or distance-coded encoders a reference run must be made.
Reference runs are not necessary on machines with EnDat encoders.
Sequence for reference run:
On standard encoders: A fixed reference mark is traversed. This direction of approach must be
considered.
For distance-coded encoders: The MANUALplus 4110 finds the position after a brief reference
run. (There are reference marks every 20 to 80 mm.)
Traversing the reference marks:
Pre-position the axes with
handwheels or jog keys
Press the X Reference soft
key
Press the Z Reference soft
key
Activate Cycle Start

HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 System Operation 3.8
Switch-on and traversing the reference marks
Confirm tool
The MANUALplus 4110 assumes that
the most recently active tool is still in the
tool holder.
Confirm the tool with the Tool change
button
(The tool and feed rate are enabled.)
On some machines (such as those with automatic tool changer) the acknowledgment
is automatic.
