HEIDENHAIN CNC PILOT 4290 323
Control graphic
Depending on the menu option selected (IWG or AWG), the following
settings apply to the IWG or AWG:
Basic block:
■ On: stops after every traverse movement
■ Off: simulates the complete machining sequence
Graphic type:
■ Tool path: depicts paths of traverse with solid line
(reference: theoretical tool tip)
■ Cutting path: depicts the surface covered by the ”cutting
area” of the tool with hatch marks. The cutting path graphic
accounts for the exact geometry of the tool tip (cutting
radius, cutting width, tool-tip position, etc.). The graphic
simulation is based on the tool data.
■ Erasing graphics: The blank part is displayed as a ”filled
area” from which material is removed during the machining
process.
