New functions of software 54843x-01 and
688946-01
On machines with a B axis it is now also possible to drill, bore, and
mill in oblique planes. In addition to this, the B axis enables you to
use tools even more flexibly during turning (see "Tilted working
plane" on page 562).
The control now provides numerous touch probe cycles for various
applications (see "General information on touch probe cycles
(software option)" on page 428):
Calibrating a touch trigger probe
Measuring circles, circle segments, angle and position of the C
axis
Misalignment compensation
Single-point and double-point measurements
Finding a hole or stud
Zero point setting in the Z or C axis
Automatic tool measurement
The new TURN PLUS function automatically generates NC
programs for turning and milling operations based on a fixed
machining sequence (see "TURN PLUS mode of operation" on page
528).
G940 now provides a way to calculate the tool lengths in the basic
(definition) position of the B axis (see "Calculate variables
automatically G940" on page 373)
For machining operations that require rechucking, you can define a
separation point on the contour description with G44 (see
"Separation point G44" on page 213).
G927 enables you to convert tool lengths to the reference position
of the tool (B axis = 0) (see "Convert lengths G927" on page 373).
Recesses that were defined with G22 can now be machined with
the new Cycle 870 ICP Recessing (see ""ICP recessing" unit" on page
75).
