3.4 Contouring behavior in corners
3.4.1 Radial acceleration
In addition to the normal acceleration (MP1060) there is also a machine parameter for radial
acceleration (MP1070).
The machine parameter limits the feed for circular movements according to the following formula:
v = r [m] · MP1070 [m/s
2
]
v = feed rate for circular movements [m/s]
r = radius [m] (cutter mid-point contour)
It is recommended that a value is entered which is 50–100% of that in MP1060 (Acceleration). If the
programmed feed is lower than that above, then the programmed feed will be used.

3.4.2 Constant feed rate in corners
Machine parameter MP7460 defines the angle which can still be traversed with constant feed rate.
This machine parameter is effective for corners without a radius compensation, for internal corners
it is also effective with a radius compensation.
MP7460
The permissible size of the angle depends on the drives in the machine.
Realistic values are 5° to 20°.
The resulting path is as follows:
