10.2 Advanced Surface and Top Surface
Machining of free-form surfaces involves high requirements regarding speed, precision and
surface quality. The "High Speed Settings" cycle simplifies the parameterization of mold
making applications.
The "Advanced Surface" and "Top Surface" options allow the manufacturing of high-quality
mold making workpieces.
Perfect surface
SINUMERIK Operate can even cope with
inadequate CNC block sequences in mold
making programs: New forward-thinking,
mathematical algorithms perform fully identi-
cal calculations for the movement paths in
forward and reverse directions. This means
that reverse paths on molds yield mirror-finish
workpiece surfaces.
Minimum machining time
In addition, Advanced Surface and Top Sur-
face ensure shortest machining times. A
brand new type of motion control calculates
an ideally smooth surface, for which it keeps
the tool within the optimum speed range at all
times.
One-off optimization
The Advanced Surface and Top Surface algo-
rithms guarantee optimum workpiece surfaces
and shortest machining times after just a sin-
gle optimization of the system.
Highlight
Advanced Surface and Top Surface are synonyms for milling at physical machine limits;
coupled with maximum speed, accuracy and best surface quality, not only for mold
making
