Block types

You can use the following block types for machining in the MDI mode:
Positioning functions

Machining patterns

13.2.1

Positioning

You can manually define position values for positioning. Depending on the
configuration of the connected machine tool, you can then move the tool to these
positions either automatically or manually.
You can load the current axis position with Actual position capture into
the appropriate input fields.
The following parameters are available:
Positioning block

13.2.2 Machining patterns
You can define various machining patterns to machine complex shapes. From the
data you enter, the product calculates the geometry of the machining patterns and
optionally displays them in the simulation window.
Before defining a machining pattern, you must
Define a suitable tool in the tool table
Select the tool on the status bar
Further information:
You can load the current axis position with Actual position capture into
the appropriate input fields.

Description
Tool radius compensation disabled (default setting)
Positive tool radius compensation; the traverse path is
increased by the tool radius (outside contour)
Negative tool radius compensation; the traverse path is
decreased by the tool radius (inside contour)
Incremental position value, i.e. the position value is
referenced to the actual position
Drilling through without position value specification
(only for manually operated Z axis)
