Pocket milling - roughing G845

G845 roughs closed contours and figures that are defined in the XY
or YZ plane in the program sections:

FRONT_Y

REAR_SIDE_Y

SURFACE_Y

For machining with the C axis: see the User's Manual, section

”4.8.15 Milling Cycles.”
”U” defines the overlapping of the milling paths. ”V” defines the

distance by which the tool should pass the outside radius of the

workpiece (reference: tool diameter).
You can change the cutting direction with the ”cutting direction

H,” the ”machining direction Q,” and the direction of tool rotation

(see the User's Manual, section ”4.8.15 Milling Cycles”).
Cycle run

1 Starting position (X, Y, Z, C) is the position before the cycle

begins.

2 Calculates the cutting segmentation (infeeds to the working

planes, infeeds in the working plane).

3 Moves to the safety clearance and plunges to the first milling

depth.

4 Mills one plane.
5 Retracts by the safety clearance, returns and cuts to the next

milling depth.

6 Repeats steps 4 and 5 until the complete surface is milled.
7 Retracts to ”return plane J.”

Parameters

NS:

Block number – reference to contour description

P:

(Maximum) milling depth (infeed in the working plane)

I, K:

Allowance in X, Z direction

U:

(Minimum) overlap factor (overlap = U * tool diameter) –

default: 0.5

V:

Overrun factor (if the milling contour passes the turning

contour)

0: The defined contour is milled completely.

0 < V † 1: Overrun = V * tool diameter

H:

Cutting direction – default: 0

H=0: Up-cut milling

H=1: Climb milling

F:

Feed rate for infeed – default: Active feed rate

E:

Reduced feed rate for circular elements – no entry: Current

feed rate

2.3.4

Milling

Cycles

J:

Return plane – no entry: Tool returns to the

starting position

XY plane: Return position in Z direction

YZ plane: Return position in X direction

(diameter)

Q:

Machining direction – default: 0

Q=0: From the inside toward the outside

Q=1: From the outside toward the inside

Allowances are taken into account (G57:

X, Z direction; G58: equidistant oversize

in the milling plane).
