Description
Machining in the programmed contour direction
Forward:
•
Machining is performed in the programmed contour direction
Backward:
•
Machining is performed in the opposite direction to the programmed con-
tour
Left (machining to the left of the contour)
•
Right (machining to the right of the contour)
•
off
•
A programmed contour can also be machined on the center-point path. In this
case, approaching and retraction is only possible along a straight line or verti-
cal. Vertical approach/retraction can be used for closed contours, for example.
Slot side compensation on or off (only for machining surface, peripheral sur-
face C)
Offset to programmed path
- (only for slot side compensation on)
Positioning angle for machining area
- (only for ShopTurn, machining surface, face Y)
Positioning angle for machining surface
- (only for ShopTurn, machining surface, peripheral surface Y)
Reference point Z
Final drilling depth (abs) or final drilling depth referred to Z0 or X0 (inc)
Maximum depth infeed - (only for machining ∇ and ∇∇∇)
Depth finishing allowance - (only for machining ∇)
Finishing allowance, plane
Planar approach mode:
Quadrant:
•
Part of a spiral (only with path milling left and right of the contour)
Semi-circle:
•
Part of a spiral (only with path milling left and right of the contour)
Straight line:
•
Slope in space
Perpendicular:
•
Perpendicular to the path (only with path milling on the center-point path)
