cle mode

5.2 ICP editor in cycle mode

In cycle mode you can create:

Complex workpiece blank contours

Contours for turning

For ICP turning cycles

For ICP recessing cycles

For ICP recess-turning cycles

Complex contours for milling with the C axis

For the face

For the lateral surface

You activate the ICP editor with the Edit ICP soft key. This can only

be selected when editing ICP turning cycles or milling cycles or the

ICP workpiece blank contour cycle.
The description depends on the contour type. Using the cycle, ICP

distinguishes between:

Contour for turning or the workpiece blank contour: See "Contour

elements of a turning contour" on page 387.

Contour for the face: See "Face contours in smart.Turn" on

page 413.

Contour for the lateral surface: See "Lateral surface contours in

smart.Turn" on page 421.

Editing contours for cycles

The ICP contours of the cycle editing function are assigned names.

The contour name is the same as the file name. The contour name is

also used in the calling cycle.
You can define the contour name in the following ways:

Define the contour name in the cycle dialog before calling the ICP

editor (input field FK). ICP loads this name.

Define the contour name in the ICP editor. The input field FK has to

be empty when you call the ICP editor.

Load the existing contour. When you exit the ICP editor, the name

of the contour last edited is loaded into the input field FK.

If you create/edit two or more ICP contours in sequence,

the last edited "ICP contour number" is loaded to the cycle

after the ICP editor is exited.
