1. Introduction _
The Control TNC 135 B is a 3-axis Manual Data Input (MDI) control. It has been
designed for direct programming on the machine by the machine operator. For this
reason, some of its details purposely deviate from established programming standards.
Special attention has been given to simple operation and a clear arrangement of the
control panel. For this reason, no attempt has been made to save on the number of
displays
The keys have been allocated to three groups and care has been taken that keys
do not have “double functions”.
Hardware variants
The following versions of TNC 135 are available.
TNC 135 B For connection of linear encoders with 20 pm grating period or
rotary encoders.
The earlier control types TNC 135 S and TNC 135 ST has a signal evaluation for
the connection of linear encoders with 40 pm grating period.
TNC 135 RT For the connection of linear encoders with 100 pm grating period
or for cables longer than 20 m (66 ft). The encoder inputs are
designed for square-wave signals.
For dialogue and program display, the TNC 135 B has a VDU (visual display unit)
instead of the plain dialogue display window.
The independent VDU is connected to the rear of the TNC 135 B control.
The VDU displays 8 lines each having 32 characters.
In order to obtain a clearer VDU-display, certain items of information are
displayed brighter or invertedly (brightne!ss adiustment with the right-hand
potentiometer on the front panel ; the basic brightness is adjusted with the
left-hand potentiometer).

The programming procedure is “dialogue-gui’ded” i.e. thfe necessary data
required for program entry is asked for by the TNC 135 B - in the correct
sequence - via the plain language display.
The TNC 135 B has the following facilities:
mm/inch instant conversion
. Tool compensation (radius and Ieng th)
. Programming of feed rates, rapid traverse, spindle speeds in mm/min
(or 0.1 in./min or rpm)
. Subprograms, program part repeats, ,‘ixed program cycles and M-, S- and
T-functions.
TNC 135 B - Programming can be performed in the following ways:
. with stationary machine in accordanize with a workpiece drawing or
program sheet,
. by “keying in” mlues prior to automatic machinling of the first workpiece of
a batch or series,
. by transferring actual machine position data during the automatic or conventional
machining of a workpiece blank cplayback”).
. external programming via the V,24 input/output,,
This input/output enables the connection of a magnetic tape storage unit,
or a punched tape unit, or telex, or printer or any other compatible
peripheral equipment,
After program entry into the
after the other.
Please note:
TNC 135 B operation is explai ned in the TNC 135 B “Operating Manual”.
TNC-memory, workpieces can be machined one
1.1 Gen,eral remarks
Caution ! All inputs and outputs of the ‘TNC control should be connected
to electric circuits which generate voltages in accordance with
VDE 0100/5,73 8 (G erman standard, protective low voltage).
Do not engage or disengage any plug connections whilst unit is under power !
NC machines also require the necessary safety devices as used on manually
operated machines (e.g. limit switches, ;Emergency STOP” buttons etc.).
The proper functioning of the devices should be checked before commencing
operation !

2. Coding switches for rneasuringdirections
ramp configuration and length and displays
(d i a g r a m)
The code switch with 8 channels is located within the terminal box at the rear
of the TNC. ’
The setting of the channels is mentioned in the appropriate sections,
Please note:
In future a toggle switch might be used in place of the slide switch.
The switch positions (switch open or closed) for both types are indicated in the
following diagram.

3. Available Software versions1
Four basic software versions are available which were (designed for various
operating modes.
The TNC 135 t3 are suitable for:
4
Common drive with switched-over position loops - without backlash
b)
Common drive with switched-over position loops - with backlash
4
Single-axis drives with linear ini*erpolation - position loops switched off
(simultaneous positioning in two axes possible)
4
Single-axis drives with linear interpolation - permanently closed
position loops (simultaneous positioning in two axes possible)
Moreover, the controls are available with the following dialogue languages:
English
German
French
Italian
Portugnese
Russian
Technical details of each software version are dealt with in items 4 and 5.
The descriptions in the remaining items are valid for all TNC-versions.

4. Software version: C 0 ni m 0 n drive with
switched-over position I 0 0 p
With this design, the control can be used with a common drive and three
electrically-activated axis clutches or wi’th three single axis drives with a
common servo amp1 ifier .
With common drive, the axis release relays activate the axis clutches and the
servo-amplifier simultaneously. With single axis drives with common servo-amplifier,
the motor and tacho-generator of each axis is switched to the servo-amplifier.
Only when this procedure is completely ended may the servo-amplifier relebse be
activated (e.g. external time delay < 200 ms).
After reaching the nominal position , the cut-out procedure takes place in reverse
order:
Inactivation of servo-amp1 ifier release, then cut-out of drive and tacho-generator
from servo-amp1 ifier.
Caution :
The tacho-generators should not (if possibile) be switched via the relay contacts,
Due to the tacho-generator only supplying one signal,, it is recommended that a
combined circuit should be formed from the three tacho-signals.
Please note:
The requirements of the servo-amplifier manufacturer Imust be observed,
Two software versions are available for oFleration with switched-over position
loop:
. for drive spindles with backlash
. for backlash-free drive spindles (bal l-screw spindles with direct coupling to
axis drives)

Positil2ning direction (only with common
- + 24 \&upply drives with backlash)
Owing to the backlash-prone drive spindle the positioninlg direction is determined
before the positioning procedure and held constant for thle positioning period.
With the “Override’‘-potentiometer no machine standstill can be achieved with this
positioning loop (offset-v01 tage).
Time sequence of a positioning procedure wi\;hout auxiliary function output
After start (manual or automatic) the corresponding axis release relay becomes
active without time delay, 300 ms later, the velocity-nominal value increases
(analogue output X, Y, Z) according .to a ramp function until the voltage level of
the programmed feedrate has been reached. ‘Nhen nearing the position value, the
velocity-nominal value is decreased according to a ramp function.
When the position value has been reached, ‘the position lloop is-opened (axis
relay breaks, the nominal value output remains at OV). A new start is inhibited
for a period of 100 ms.
