Machining Operations
Global data for milling operations with contour cycles
Set-up clearance:
Distance between tool tip and workpiece surface
for automated approach of the cycle start position in the tool axis.
Clearance height:
Absolute height at which the tool cannot collide
with the workpiece (for intermediate positioning and retraction at the
end of the cycle).
Overlap factor:
The tool radius multiplied by the overlap factor equals
the lateral stepover.
Climb or up-cut:
Select the type of milling.
Global data for probing functions
Set-up clearance:
Distance between stylus and workpiece surface for
automated approach of the probing position.
Clearance height:
The coordinate in the touch probe axis to which
smarT.NC traverses the touch probe between measuring points, if the
Move to clearance height
option is activated.
Move to clearance height:
Select whether smarT.NC moves the
touch probe to the set-up clearance or clearance height between the
measuring points.
