parameters
Description
TR
Reference tool Tool, which is used in the "stock removal" machining step. This is used
to determine the residual corners.
D
Cutting edge number
Z0
Reference point in tool axes Z
Pocket depth (abs) or depth referred to Z0
Z1
CP
Positioning angle for machining area
- (only for ShopTurn, machining surface, face Y)
C0
Positioning angle for machining surface
- (only for ShopTurn, machining surface, peripheral surface Y)
Maximum plane infeed
•
DXY
Maximum plane infeed as a percentage of the milling cutter diameter
•
DZ
Maximum depth infeed
Lift mode
Lift mode before new infeed
If the machining operation requires several points of insertion, the retraction height can
be programmed:
To retraction plane
•
Z0 + safety clearance
•
When making the transition to the next insertion point, the tool returns to this height. If
there are no elements larger than Z0 in the pocket area, Z0 + safety clearance" can be
selected as the lift mode.
FS
Chamfer width for chamfering - (only for chamfering machining)
ZFS
Insertion depth of tool tip (abs or inc) - (for chamfering machining only)
