6.6.2 Contours of the Lateral Surface

Cartesian or polar dimensions
The ”linear dimension CY” is given with respect to the unrolled
surface under ”reference diameter.”

Milling depth
For figures, enter the parameter ”Depth P.” If you use individual
elements for describing a milling contour, TURN PLUS opens the
”Pocket/contour” dialog box after you have finished your entries,
which requests ”Depth P.”

”Depth P” > 0 defines a pocket.

Starting point of lateral surface contour

To define the starting point, select Contour.

Parameters
Z:

Starting point of contour

P:

Starting point of contour – polar

CY:

Starting point of contour – angle as linear dimension

C:

Starting point of contour – angle

Position of lateral-surface contours

TURN PLUS takes the selected reference plane and suggests it as
reference diameter.

”Reference data” dialog box
X:

Reference diameter

”Dimensions of lateral surface” soft key

Polar dimensions

Angle or angle as linear dimension

Polar dimension (parameter ”P”):
n ”P” is given with respect to the unrolled
lateral surface.

Select the desired solution when there

are two possibilities.
