3-D view
The workpiece is displayed in three dimensions, and can be rotated
about the vertical axis. If you have the appropriate hardware, then with
its high-resolution 3-D graphics the TNC can also display machining
operations in the tilted working plane as well as multi-sided machining
operations.
You can rotate the 3-D display about the vertical and horizontal axes.
The shape of the workpiece blank can be depicted by a frame overlay
at the beginning of the graphic simulation.
In the Test Run mode of operation you can isolate details for
magnification, see “Magnifying details”, page 523.
8 Press the soft key for 3-D view. Press the soft key
twice to switch to the high-resolution 3-D graphics.
This switch is only possible once the simulation has
finished. The high-resolution graphics also display
machining operations in the tilted working plane.
The speed of the high-resolution 3-D graphics depends on
the tooth length (LCUTS column in the tool table). If
LCUTS is defined as 0 (basic setting), the simulation
calculates an infinitely long tooth length, which leads to a
long processing time. If you do not want to define LCUTS,
then set MP7312 to a value between 5 and 10. This way
the TNC internally limits the tooth length to a value which
is calculated from MP7312 times the tool diameter.
