Cutting rate (SVC)

Function
As an alternative to the spindle speed, the tool cutting rate, which is more commonly used in
practice, can be programmed for milling operations.
The control uses the radius of the active tool to calculate the effective spindle speed from
the programmed tool cutting rate:
S = (SVC * 1000) / (R
where:
The tool type ($TC_DP1) of the active tool is not taken into account.
The programmed cutting rate is independent of the path feedrate
The direction of rotation and the spindle start are programmed using
and the spindle stop using
A change to the tool radius data in the offset memory will be applied the next time a tool
offset is selected or the next time the active offset data is updated.
Changing the tool or selecting/deselecting a tool offset data record generates a recalculation
of the effective spindle speed.
Conditions
The programming of the cutting speed requires:
● The geometric ratios of a rotating tool (milling cutter or drilling tool)
● An active tool offset data record
