Free contour programming

Functionality
Free contour programming enables you to create simple and complex contours.
A contour editor (FKE) calculates any missing parameters for you as soon as they can be obtained from other parameters.
You can link together contour elements and transfer to the edited part program.
Technology
The contour calculator for turning technology provides the following functions for this purpose:
● Toggling between radius/diameter programming (DIAMON, DIAMOF, DIAM90)
● Chamfer/radius at the start and end of the contour
● Undercuts as transition elements between two axially parallel straight lines, where one runs horizontally and the other
vertically (Form E, Form F, thread undercut acc. to DIN, general undercut)
Contour editor (FKE)
Proceed through the following steps to open the contour editor window:

The missing center point coordinate is calculated using the calculator function, as the radius at the
tangential transition is perpendicular to the straight line.
The radius is located at an angle of 90° clockwise to the straight-line defined by the angle.
