Examples of milling cycles
Milling on the face
In this example, a pocket is milled. The milling example illustrates
the complete machining process on the face, including contour
definition.
The machining process is performed with the cycle ICP contour
axial. To describe a contour, define the basic contour first. Then
superimpose the rounding arcs.
Tool data (milling cutter)
TO = 8 – Tool orientation
