Machining free form surfaces using Advanced Surface
Machining with Advanced Surface
When executing CAM programs in the high-speed cutting (HSC) range, the control has to
process high feedrates with the shortest NC blocks. The result should be a good surface
quality of the workpiece with high precision in the µm range at extremely high machining
feedrates of > 10 m/min.
Using CYCLE832, the NC program is very precisely harmonized across the various
machining strategies:
● When roughing, using smoothing of the contour the emphasis is on speed.
● When finishing, the emphasis is on accuracy.
In both cases, specifying a tolerance ensures that the machining contour is maintained in
order to achieve the desired surface quality.
