Example: Convex sphere machined with end mill

Program sequence

This program requires an end mill.

The contour of the sphere is approximated by

many short lines (in the Z/X plane, defined in

Q14). The smaller you define the angle

increment, the smoother the curve becomes.

You can determine the number of contour cuts

through the angle increment in the plane

(defined in Q18).

The tool moves upward in three-dimensional

cuts.

The tool radius is compensated automatically.
