CNC Controls: Haas

One of the major computer numerical controls (CNC) used on the shop floor today is the Haas control. While other machine tools rely on controls made by different manufacturers, every Haas machine is equipped with a Haas control.
These classes describe the specific step-by-step instructions necessary for the basic operation of the Haas control. Classes are split to focus specifically on either the Haas mill or Haas lathe. Students first learn how to power up, home the machine, and enter offsets. More difficult classes focus on activating and executing programs, adding programs from various storage methods, and using the editing features of the control.

Online	Machining	310	CNC Controls: Haas	390010	Haas NGC: Next Generation Control Panel Overview 101	Next Generation Control Panel Overview describes the latest control panel from Haas Automation®, Inc. The class identifies the different areas of the control keypad and describes the function of each individual key. Display keys change what information appears on the display screen. Operators use cursor keys to navigate windows, menus, and tables on screen. Mode keys change the operational state of the CNC machine. Operators enter numbers, letters, and special characters using alpha and numeric keys. Override keys temporarily alter feed, speed, and other variables while a part program runs. Jog keys manually control axis motions. Function keys perform a variety of tasks, depending on the mode and display.Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the control panel's different functions will prepare users to successfully perform operations, utilizing the full capabilities of the Next Generation Control.

Online	Machining	310	CNC Controls: Haas	310100	Haas NGC: Entering Mill Offsets 201	Haas NGC: Entering Mill Offsets 201 covers the basics of offsets used on Haas Automation®, Inc.'s Next Generation Control (NGC) mill. Offsets on the NGC mill include work offsets, tool length offsets, tool wear offsets, diameter geometry offsets, and coolant position offsets. The class describes how to access and navigate the offsets menus on the NGC control panel. Additionally, the class explains how milling operators determine and enter offset values both manually and using the Part Zero Set and Tool Offset Measure functions available on the NGC.In order to machine parts successfully, NGC mill operators should understand the concepts of work, tool length, diameter geometry, tool wear, and coolant position offsets and possess basic skills to enter and adjust these offsets before and during a milling operation. The correct application of offsets allows milling operators to avoid machine and workpiece damage, minimize tool wear, and produce parts with the proper tolerance.	Intermediate	2.0	English
Online	Machining	310	CNC Controls: Haas	310105	Haas NGC: Entering Lathe Offsets 202	Haas NGC: Entering Lathe Offsets 202 addresses concepts and processes for entering offsets on the Haas Next Generation Control (NGC) lathe. Offsets on the NGC lathe include work offsets and a range of tool geometry offsets. Tool geometry offsets for the Haas NGC lathe include tool length, radius, tip direction, and wear offsets. This course describes each individual offset and explains how to navigate the offsets menu and enter offset values into the NGC panel.Performing turning operations on the NGC lathe requires a conceptual understanding of lathe offsets and the ability to enter tool and work offsets using the appropriate steps. Correctly determining and entering tool and work offsets allows operators to improve efficiency by producing more parts within tolerance, minimizing machining errors, and reducing loss due to scrapped or reworked parts.
