Programming with Q Parameters

Hemisphere machined with an end mill

Notes on the program:

• The tool moves upward in the Z/X plane.
• You can enter an oversize in block 12 (Q12) if

you want to machine the contour in several
steps.

• The tool radius is automatically compensated

with parameter Q108.

The program works with the following
quantities:

• Solid angle:

Start angle

Q1

End angle

Q2

Increment

Q3

• Sphere radius

Q4

• Setup clearance

Q5

• Plane angle:

Start angle

Q6

End angle

Q7

Increment

Q8

• Center of sphere:

X coordinate

Q9

Y coordinate

Q10

• Milling feed rate

Q11

• Oversize

Q12

The parameters additionally defined in the
program have the following meanings:

• Q15:

Setup clearance above the sphere

• Q21:

Solid angle during machining

• Q24:

Distance from center of sphere to
tool center

• Q26:

Plane angle during machining

• Q108: TNC parameter with tool radius
