Contour Generation Programming Function (Face)
1-1.
Function Overview
The contour generation function can cut straight lines or arcs on the end face of a workpiece by
simultaneous two-axis interpolation of the C- and X-axes on multi-machining models.
Note that simultaneous three-axis control of X, Z, and C axes is possible for straight line cutting on a
plane.
