Heidenhain TNC 426/430

The Heidenhain TNC 426/430 is part of the interchangeable EMCO WinNC control system. It allows users to learn and practise industrial CNC control programming on an EMCO Concept machine or at a programmer’s workstation.

The software closely replicates the operation and functionality of the original Heidenhain TNC 426/430 control. Users can work on a standard PC or at the machine control to develop practical programming skills.

Functions

Workpiece program data transfer

  • Imports and exports workpiece program files containing main programs, subprograms and associated tool data
  • Supports workpiece data, R parameters and zero offsets

Automatic tool measurement

  • Tool offsets are determined by touching the reference workpiece

Automatic measurement of position offsets

  • Measured position offsets are transferred when touching the workpiece

Dry run

  • Helps identify and correct programming errors and potential collisions before machining begins

Preliminary block run

  • Allows completed NC code blocks to be skipped

Program editor

  • Integrated editor with supporting cycles and visual guidance for easier operation and programming

Contour processor with graphic simulation

  • Graphically displays the programmed workpiece contour during program creation

Diagnostics
