10 Cutter Radius Compensation (CRC), Tool Nose Radius Compensation (TNRC)
10.10 Special cases for CRC/TNRC
10.10 Special cases for CRC/TNRC
The control always uses the next block to calculate the point of intersection of the compen-
sated paths. If no axes in the compensation plane are programmed in the next block, the con-
trol uses the next block but one. Contour errors can occur if the intermediate block is smaller
than the selected compensation value.
Machining is not interrupted, but an alarm is displayed.

CRC/TNRC special case: Same direction of compensation and change in traversing direction
The direction of compensation for CRC/TNRC is retained and the traversing direction is revers-
ed. The return path in N10 must exceed twice the cutter radius/tool nose radius, or the tool will
move in the wrong direction.
