8 Plunging depth Q10 (incremental value): Dimension
by which the tool plunges in each infeed.
8 Feed rate for plunging Q11: Traversing speed of the
tool in mm/min during penetration.
8 Feed rate for milling Q12: Traversing speed for
milling in mm/min.
8 Coarse roughing tool Q18 or QS18: Number or name
of the tool with which the TNC has already coarse-
roughed the contour. Switch to name input: Press the
“ key. If there was no coarse roughing, enter “0”; if
you enter a number or a name, the TNC will only
rough-out the portion that could not be machined with
the coarse roughing tool. If the portion that is to be
roughed cannot be approached from the side, the
TNC will mill in a reciprocating plunge-cut; For this
purpose you must enter the tool length LCUTS in the
tool table TOOL.T, see “Tool Data,” page 186 and
define the maximum plunging ANGLE of the tool. The
TNC will otherwise generate an error message.
8 Reciprocation feed rate Q19: Traversing speed of
the tool in mm/min during reciprocating plunge-cut.
8 Retraction feed rate Q208: Traversing speed of the
tool in mm/min when retracting after machining. If
you enter Q208 = 0, the TNC retracts the tool at the
feed rate in Q12.
8 Feed rate factor in %: Q401: Percentage factor by
which the TNC reduces the machining feed rate(Q12)
as soon as the tool moves within the material over its
entire circumference during roughing. If you use the
feed rate reduction, then you can define the feed rate
for roughing so large that there are optimum cutting
conditions with the path overlap(Q2) specified in Cycle
20. The TNC then reduces the feed rate as per your
definition at transitions and narrow places, so the
machine time should be reduced in total.
