Programming example, TRACYL

Machining grooves with groove wall compensation
MD24100_TRAFO_TYPE_1 = 513
Contour
It is possible to machine a groove which is wider than the tool by using address OFFN=... to
program the compensation direction (G41, G42) in relation to the programmed reference
contour and the distance of the groove side wall from the reference contour.
Tool radius
The tool radius in relation to the groove side wall is automatically taken into account with
G41, G42. The full functionality of the plane tool radius compensation is available (steady
transition at outer and inner corners as well as solution of bottleneck problems).

Program example for X-Y-Z-C machine kinematics
TRACYL is used for the milling of grooves on a peripheral cylinder surface. During this
process, the "Path I" and "Path II" sections are processed using different OFFN values.
