Parameter Description
UZ Depth finishing allowance – (only for ∇ and ∇∇∇)
Insertion Various insertion modes can be selected – (only for plane-by-plane
machining method and for ∇, ∇∇∇ or ∇∇∇ edge)
Predrilled (only for G code)
•
• Perpendicular: Insert vertically at the center of pocket
The tool executes the calculated depth infeed vertically in the center of
the pocket.
Feedrate: Infeed rate as programmed under FZ
Helical: Insert along helical path
•
The cutter center point traverses along the helical path determined by
the radius and depth per revolution. If the depth for one infeed has been
reached, a full circle motion is executed to eliminate the inclined
insertion path.
Feedrate: Machining feedrate
Note: The vertical insertion into pocket center method can be used only
if the tool can cut across center or if the workpiece has been predrilled.
FZ Depth infeed rate – (only for perpendicular insertion and vertical)
(only for G code)
FZ Depth infeed rate – (only for perpendicular insertion and vertical)
(only for ShopMill)
EP Maximum pitch of helix - (for helical insertion only)
The helix pitch may be lower due to the geometric conditions.
ER Radius of helix - (only for helical insertion)
The radius must not be larger than the cutter radius, otherwise material will
remain. Also make sure the circular pocket is not violated
Stock removal
Complete machining
•
The circular pocket must be milled from a solid workpiece (e.g. casting).
Editing
•
A small pocket or hole has already been machined in the workpiece.
This needs to be enlarged. Parameters AZ, and ∅1 must be
programmed.
FS Chamfer width for chamfering - (for chamfering only)
ZFS Insertion depth of tool tip (abs or inc) - (for chamfering only)
AZ Depth of premachining - (for remachining only)
∅1 Diameter of premachining - (for remachining only)
