Definition of milling contours
Before programming a milling contour, define the workpiece blank and
the turning contour.
“Free” contour: With the elements “line” and “arc,” you can define
any contour. You simply define the “starting point of contour,”
describe the contour, and then define the depth of the pocket/contour.
Programming a “free” contour
U
Select “Workpiece > Finished part > Figure > Contour.”
U
If not yet defined: Select the input plane (XY front, XYR back, ZY
lateral surface).
U
Set the reference element.
U
Check the “reference data” and complete them, if necessary.
U
Define the contour
U
Check the contour in the control graphic.
Programming figures/patterns
U
Select “Workpiece > Finished part > Pattern“ (or “.. > Figure”).
U
Select the pattern or figure.
U
If not yet defined: Select the input plane (XY front, XYR back, ZY
lateral surface).
U
Set the reference element.
U
Check the “reference data” and complete them, if necessary.
U
Enter the parameters for the pattern/figure.
U
Check the pattern/figure in the control graphic.
If you use the main view for programming, TURN PLUS
will ask you to set the working plane. If you use the
front, rear or surface window, the control will assume
this plane to be the working plane.
You can change the “active window” with the PgUp/
PgDn keys or the cursor.
