Pocket milling—roughing G845 (Y axis)

G845 roughs closed contours that are defined in the XY or YZ plane in

the program sections:

FACE_Y

REAR SIDE_Y

LATERAL_Y

Choose one of the following plunge strategies, depending on the

milling cutter you are using:

Plunge vertically

Plunge at a pre-drilled position

Plunge in a reciprocating or helical motion

When "plunging at a pre-drilled position," you have the following

alternatives:

Calculate positions, drill, mill.

The machining process is

performed in the following steps:

Insert drill.

Calculate hole positions with "G845 A1 ..."

Drill holes with "G71 NF ..."

Call cycle "G845 A0 ..." The cycle positions the tool above the hole;

the tool plunges and mills the pocket.

Drill, mill.

The machining process is performed in the following

steps:

Drill a hole inside the pocket with "G71 ..."

Position the milling cutter above the hole and call "G845 A0 ..." The

tool plunges and mills the section.

If the pocket consists of multiple sections, G845 takes all the sections

of the pocket into account for drilling and milling. Call "G845 A0 .."

separately for each section when calculating the hole positions

without "G845 A1 ..".

G845 takes the following oversizes into account:

G57: Oversize in X, Z direction

G58: Equidistant oversize in the milling plane

Program oversizes for calculating the hole positions and

for milling.
