Tool Offset Peripheral Milling, Face Milling - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Programming Manual

Tool offsets
7.5 Activate 3D tool offsets (CUT3DC..., CUT3DF...)
7.5.2 3D tool offset peripheral milling, face milling
Circumferential milling
The type of milling used here is implemented by defining a path (guide line) and the
corresponding orientation. In this type of machining, the shape of the tool on the path is not
relevant. Especially the radius at the tool intervention point is decisive.
Note
The function 3D TRC is restricted to cylindrical tools.
