11.7 SCALING (Cycle 11, DIN/ISO:

G72)

Effect

The TNC can increase or reduce the size of contours within a program,
enabling you to program shrinkage and oversize allowances.

The SCALING FACTOR becomes effective as soon as it is defined in
the program. It is also effective in the Positioning with MDI mode of
operation. The active scaling factor is shown in the additional status
display.

The scaling factor has an effect on

„

The working plane, or on all three coordinate axes at the same time
(depending on MP 7410)

„

Dimensions in cycles

„

The parallel axes U,V,W

Prerequisite

It is advisable to set the datum to an edge or a corner of the contour
before enlarging or reducing the contour.

Enlargement: SCL greater than 1 and up to 99.999 999

Reduction: SCL less than 1 and at least 0.000 001

Reset

Program the SCALING FACTOR cycle once again with a scaling factor
of 1.
