Programming technology functions (cycles)
8.4 Milling
Parameter
Description
Clamp/release spindle (only for end face C/peripheral surface C, if inserted vertically)
The function must be set up by the machine manufacturer.
(only for
ShopTurn)
FZ
Depth infeed rate – (for vertical insertion only)
(only for G code)
FZ
Depth infeed rate – (for vertical insertion only)
(only for
ShopTurn)
EP
Maximum pitch of helix – (for helical insertion only)
ER
Radius of helix – (for helical insertion only)
The radius cannot be any larger than the milling cutter radius; otherwise, material will
remain.
EW
Maximum insertion angle – (for insertion with oscillation only)
Solid machining
Complete machining
•
(for roughing only)
The rectangular pocket is milled from the solid material.
Post machining
•
The size of any existing smaller rectangular pocket or hole is increased in several
axes. You must program parameters AZ, W1 and L1 for this purpose.
AZ
Depth of premachining – (for remachining only)
W1
Width of premachining – (for remachining only)
L1
Length of premachining – (for remachining only)
FS
Chamfer width for chamfering - (for chamfering only)
ZFS
Insertion depth of tool tip (abs or inc) – (for chamfering only)
