3.6 Simple stock removal of workpiece
Some blanks have a smooth or even surface. For example, you can use the stock removal
cycle to turn the face surface of the workpiece before machining actually takes place.
If you want to bore out a collet using the stock removal cycle, you can program an undercut
(XF2) in the corner.
Risk of collision
The tool moves along a direct path to the starting point of the stock removal. First move the
tool to a safe position in order to avoid collisions during the approach.
Retraction plane / safety clearance
The retraction plane and safety clearance are set via the machine data
$SCS_MAJOG_SAFETY_CLEARANCE or $SCS_MAJOG_RELEASE_PLANE.
Direction of spindle rotation
If the "ShopMill/ShopTurn" option is activated, the direction of spindle rotation is taken from
the tool parameters entered in the tool list.
If the "ShopMill/ShopTurn" option is not set, select the direction of spindle rotation in the
input screen.
Note
You cannot use the "Repos" function during simple stock removal.
Requirement
To carry out simple stock removal of a workpiece in manual mode, a measured tool must be
