ROUGH-OUT (G122)

Sequence

• The control positions the tool over the cutter

infeed point

• The ALLOWANCE FOR SIDE is taken into

account.

• After reaching the first pecking depth, the tool

mills the contour in an outward direction at the
programmed feed rate Q12.

• First the island contours (

C and D in figure 8.40)

are rough-milled until the pocket contour

(A, B) is

approached.

• Then the pocket contour is rough-milled and the

tool is retracted to the CLEARANCE HEIGHT.

Input data

• PECKING DEPTH Q10

Dimension by which the tool is plunged in each infeed
(negative sign for negative direction)

• FEED RATE FOR PECKING Q11

Traversing speed of the tool in mm/min during penetration

• FEED RATE FOR MILLING Q12

Traversing speed of the tool in mm/min while milling

Required tool

The cycle requires a center-cut end mill (ISO 1641).

FLOOR FINISHING (G123)

Sequence

Cycle G123 FLOOR FINISHING functions similar to Cycle G122 ROUGH-
OUT. The tool approaches the machining plane in a vertically tangential
arc.

Input data

• FEED RATE FOR PECKING Q11

Traversing speed of the tool during penetration

• FEED RATE FOR MILLING Q12

Traversing speed of the tool in the machining plane
