Measurement of machining time

Machining time in the Test Run operating mode
The control calculates the duration of the tool movements and
displays this as machining time in the test run. The control takes
feed movements and dwell times into account.
The time determined by the control is only of limited value for
calculating the machining time because it does not take any
machine-dependent time intervals (e.g., for tool changes) into
consideration.
