Approaching On A Circular Path With Tangential Connection: Appr Ct - HEIDENHAIN TNC 620 User Manual

5
Approaching on a circular path with tangential
connection: APPR CT
The tool moves on a straight line from the starting point P
auxiliary point P . It then moves from PH to the first contour point
H
PA following a circular arc that is tangential to the first contour
element.
The arc from P to P
H
the center angle CCA. The direction of rotation of the circular arc
is automatically derived from the tool path for the first contour
element.
Use any path function to approach the starting point P
Initiate the dialog with the APPR DEP key and APPR CT soft key
Coordinates of the first contour point P
Radius R of the circular arc
Center angle CCA of the arc
Radius compensation RR/RL for machining

is determined through the radius R and
A
If the tool should approach the workpiece
in the direction defined by the radius
compensation: Enter R as a positive value
If the tool should approach the workpiece
opposite to the radius compensation: Enter R
as a negative value.
CCA can be entered only as a positive value.
