Global data for milling operations with contour cycles
U
Setup clearance: Distance between tool tip and workpiece surface for
automated approach of the cycle start position in the tool axis
U
Clearance height: Absolute height at which the tool cannot collide
with the workpiece (for intermediate positioning and retraction at the
end of the cycle)
U
Overlap factor: The tool radius multiplied by the overlap factor equals
the lateral stepover
U
Climb or up-cut: Select the type of milling
Global data for probing functions
U
Setup clearance: Distance between stylus and workpiece surface for
automated approach of the probing position
U
Clearance height: The coordinate in the touch probe axis to which
smarT.NC traverses the touch probe between measuring points if the
Move to clearance height option is activated
U
Move to clearance height: Select whether smarT.NC moves the touch
probe to the setup clearance or clearance height between the
measuring points
