Tool-Tip Radius Compensation (Trc) - HEIDENHAIN MANUALPLUS 4110 Manual

Tool-tip radius compensation (TRC)

Programmed paths of traverse are
referenced to the theoretical tool tip
S. The radius of the tool tip on lathe
tools causes inaccuracies when
machining tapers, chamfers and radii.
These inaccuracies are removed with
the cutter radius compensation. A
new path of traverse (the equidistant
line) is calculated to compensate for
this error.
