8.2.10
Long hole (LONGHOLE) - only for G code programs
Function
Use the "Elongated hole" cycle to machine elongated holes arranged on a circle. The
longitudinal axis of the elongated hole is aligned radially.
In contrast to the groove, the width of the elongated hole is determined by the tool diameter.
Internally in the cycle, an optimum traversing path of the tool is determined, ruling out
unnecessary idle passes. If several depth infeeds are required to machine an elongated
hole, the infeed is carried out alternately at the end points. The path to be traversed in the
plane along the longitudinal axis of the elongated hole changes its direction after each
infeed. The cycle searches for the shortest path when changing to the next elongated hole.
NOTICE
The cycle requires a milling cutter with a "face tooth cutting over center" (DIN 844).
