Description
TR
Reference tool Tool, which is used in the "solid machining" machining step. This is
used to determine the plunge position.
Z0
Reference point Z
Z1
Depth with reference to Z0 (inc.)
DXY
Maximum plane infeed
•
Maximum plane infeed as a percentage of the milling cutter diameter
•
UXY
Finishing allowance, plane
Lift mode
Lift mode before new infeed
If the machining operation requires several points of insertion, the retraction height to
which the tool is retracted, is selected as follows:
To retraction plane
•
Z0 + safety clearance
•
If there are no elements larger than Z0 in the pocket area, "Z0 + safety clearance" can
be selected as the lift mode.
