Simulate machining

Function
You can use this function to graphically display the execution of the program on the screen,
in order to easily control the programming result without moving the machine axes.
Operating sequences
The start screen is opened.
The simulation of the part program can be reproduced on the HMI using the following two
functions:
● Standard simulation
● Contour simulation
Standard simulation
The execution of the part program is simulated with this function on the HMI by considering
the axis feedrates.

The execution of the part program is simulated on the HMI by considering the axis
feedrates. In the case of more extensive NC programs, the simulation may, therefore,
take more time.
Execution of the part program is simulated on the HMI. The simulation is based on pure
calculations and is, therefore, faster in the case of more extensive NC programs.
