12.11 Dwell time FUNCTION FEED

Programming dwell time

Application
Refer to your machine manual.
Read and note the functional description of the machine
tool builder.
Follow the safety precautions.
The FUNCTION FEED DWELL function can be used to program
a recurring dwell time in seconds, e.g. to force chip breaking .
Program FUNCTION FEED DWELL immediately prior to the
machining you wish to run with chip breaking.
The FUNCTION FEED DWELL function is not effective with rapid
traverse movements and probing motion.
Caution: Danger to the tool and workpiece!
When the FUNCTION FEED DWELL function is active, the
control will repeatedly interrupt the feed movement. While the
feed movement is interrupted, the tool remains at its current
position while the spindle continues to turn. Due to this behavior,
workpieces need to be scrapped if threads are cut. In addition,
there is a danger of tool breakage during execution!
Deactivate the FUNCTION FEED DWELL function before
cutting threads
