Inserting a chamfer between two straight lines

The chamfer enables you to cut off corners at the intersection of

two straight lines.

The line blocks before and after the

CHF block must be in the

same working plane as the chamfer.
The radius compensation before and after the

CHF block must

be the same
The chamfer must be machinable with the current tool

Chamfer side length: Length of the chamfer, and

if necessary:
Feed rate F (effective only in CHF block)

Example NC blocks

7 L X+0 Y+30 RL F300 M3
8 L X+40 IY+5
9 CHF 12 F250
10 L IX+5 Y+0

You cannot start a contour with a

CHF block.

A chamfer is possible only in the working plane.
The corner point is cut off by the chamfer and is not

part of the contour.
A feed rate programmed in the CHF block is effective
only in that block. After the

CHF block, the previous

feed rate becomes effective again.
