    Uploaded by

    David Bumbalough
    The document discusses scaling functions in CNC machine tools. It provides 14 questions about scaling, including how scaling affects part size, calculating scaling factors, and G-codes used for scaling. The questions cover topics like scaling an object larger or smaller than the original, applying scaling factors to dimensions and tool offsets, and how moving the scaling point changes the scaled object.

    43-01 Scaling Function Q+A

    All ten questions in this questions and answer exercise relate to the scaling function. Although many controls do of-
    fer scaling function (usually as an option), the actual machine shop applications are not too common. However, it is
    well worth understanding how this function works, in case a certain job can benefit from it.

    # Question Answer

    1 If the scaled object becomes SMALLER than the original,


    the result is called …

    2 If the scaled object becomes LARGER than the original,


    the result is called …

    3 True or false? Scaling is only visual


    - it does not affect the size of actual part.

    4 If the part width is 150 mm, and the part is scaled to


    80% of its original size, what will the scaled width be?

    5 If an existing 5 inch hole is scaled to the diameter


    of 6 inches, what is the scaling factor?

    6 If an existing 78 mm part width is scaled to the width


    of 70 mm, what is the scaling factor?

    7 A cutter radius offset D61 has a stored amount


    of 15 mm. What will that amount be when scaling
    factor of three is applied?

    8 Peck drill depth in G83 fixed cycle is programmed as


    Q0.45. When a scaling factor of 0.75 is applied,
    what will the Q-value be?

    9 Name the G-codes for scaling Scaling ON =

    ______________________________________________
    Scaling OFF =

    10 Specify the program format for scaling function

    The dot represent the scaling point.
    Approximate sketch is acceptable.

    11. Based on the illustration at right, draw the


    object as it will look like when magnified
    two times.

    12. Based on the illustration at right, draw the


    object as it will look like when reduced
    two times.

    13. Based on the illustration at right, draw the


    object as it will look like when the scaling
    point is changed from position A to
    position B. B A
