: During normal operation, the CNC constantly updates this value as the axis moves.
Parameter 1860 in Fanuc controls the hand number or workpiece handling configuration (often used in conjunction with hand control logic or work clamping). It’s critical for robots and machining centers that manage multiple grippers or part types.
For machines running rigid tapping above 6000 RPM, the role of Parameter 1860 becomes even more critical. At high rotational speeds, even a 1-encoder-pulse error translates into significant angular mismatch during the reversal at hole bottom.
Without a correctly configured Parameter 1860, the CNC system would lose its "memory" of where the tools and workpieces are located relative to the machine bed. This parameter ensures that even if the machine is turned off for extended periods, it resumes operation with high precision, maintaining the integrity of the work coordinate systems and preventing potential mechanical crashes.
We rewrote the routine, honoring the intent while removing the surprise. We added a human-readable comment: "Amira—caution template." We left the sticker near the gouge. The late shifts resumed their ordinary rhythm, and the robots moved without the small, errant pauses.
