Block creation in programGuide

Structuring NC programs

NC programs become easier to understand when they are structured. This video tutorial shows how to split NC programs in SINUMERIK Operate into "speaking-named" blocks and how to work with these program blocks.

Video tutorial "Create blocks in programGuide"

This video tutorial explains how you can divide an NC program into blocks using SINUMERIK Operates programGuide, how to name these blocks and how you can hide and show parts of the NC code with the help of these blocks - all without changing the functionality of the NC program. It also shows you how to delete program blocks again.

The video is based on a "DEX News" webinar by Wolfgang Marx, Digital Experience and Application Center (DEX) Erlangen.
