Simplified R Function - For 2 Axes Dro - Easson ES-12 Operation Manuals

The following procedure are for 2 axes DRO, not valid for 3 axis DRO.
Step 5: enter the Z increment per step machining
This DRO provides two options on the Z increment per UP or DOWN key press, Operator can enter their
selection in the R. MODE menu of the DRO's SETUP procedure.
Option 1 : Fixed Z step ( Z STEP )
under this option, the Z increment per step machining is fixed, since the ARC's curvature is vary with
their Z position, operator have to use their experience to select different Z STEP increment during the
ARC machining to get optimal and fastest machining.

Option 2 : Maximum Cut ( MAX CUT )
under this option, the DRO will calculate the best possible Z increment per step machining according
to the curvature of the ARC, to make the interpolated point approximately equal to the MAX CUT entered

All R function machining parameters
have already entered into the DRO,
press the DOWN key to enter into
two axis ARC machining mode
since two Axis DRO do not have Z Axis
therefore, the DRI use UP / DOWN keys
- simulate Z axis move UP one step
before starting the ARC machining in two axes ARC machining mode, please make sure the
tool is posited at the ARC starting point and Z axis dial is set to ZERO ( 0.00 )

Simplified R Function - For 2 Axes DRO

Z Axis increment per
step machining is fixed
Z STEP = 0.3mm
The DRO wil calculate the best
Z step increment so that the
Max. distance between each
machining points are
approximately the same
MAX CUT
= 0.3mm
to enter into two axes ARC machining mode
and to simulate the Z axis movement
- simulate Z axis move DOWN on step
