Milling cycles
Figure axial
Figure radial
Depending on the parameters, the cycle either mills a contour or roughs/
finishes a pocket on the end face/lateral surface.
You can define the following contours:
• Rectangle (Q=4, L<>B)
• Square (Q=4, L=B)
• Circle (Q=0, RE>0, L and B: no entry)
• Triangle or polygon (Q=3 or Q>4, L>0)
Information on the cycle parameters:
U:
Overlap factor
• No entry: Contour milling
• U>0: Pocket milling – (minimum) overlap of the milling paths
= U*cutter diameter
H: Cutting direction – default: 0
• H=0: Up-cut milling
• H=1: Down-cut milling
J: Contour milling:
• J=0: On the contour
• J=1: Inside
• J=2: Outside
Pocket milling:
• J=0: From the inside out
• J=1: From the outside in
O: Milling procedure (only for pocket milling) – default: 0
• O=0: Roughing
• O=1: Finishing
