FZ Depth infeed rate (only for ∇ and ∇∇∇)
(only for G code)
Machining
● ∇ (roughing)
● ∇∇∇ (finishing)
● ∇∇∇ edge (edge finishing)
● Chamfering
Circular pattern
● Full circle
The circumferential slots are positioned around a full circle. The distance from one
circumferential slot to the next circumferential slot is always the same and is
calculated by the control.
● Pitch circle
The circumferential slots are positioned around a pitch circle. The distance from one
circumferential slot to the next circumferential slot can be defined using angle α2.
The positions refer to the center point:
X0 Reference point X
Y0 Reference point Y
Z0 Reference point Z
N Number of grooves
R Radius of circumferential slot
α0 Starting angle
α1 Opening angle of the slot
α2 Advance angle - (for pitch circle only)
W Slot width
Z1 Slot depth (abs) or depth relative to Z0 (inc) – (only for ∇, ∇∇∇ and
∇∇∇ edge)
DZ Maximum depth infeed - (only for ∇, ∇∇∇ and ∇∇∇ Rand)
FS Chamfer width for chamfering (inc) - (for chamfering only),
