Cycle parameters
Machining operation (0/1/2)
Q215: Define the
machining operation:
0: Roughing and finishing
1: Only roughing
2: Only finishing
Side finishing and floor finishing are only executed if
the respective finishing allowance (Q368, Q369) has
been defined
Slot length
Q218 (value parallel to the reference axis
of the working plane): Enter the length of the slot.
Input range 0 to 99999.9999
Slot width
Q219 (value parallel to the minor axis of
the working plane): Enter the slot width. If you enter
a slot width that equals the tool diameter, the TNC
will carry out the roughing process only (slot milling).
Maximum slot width for roughing: Twice the tool
diameter. Input range 0 to 99999.9999
Finishing allowance for side
Q368 (incremental):
Finishing allowance in the working plane.
Angle of rotation
Q374 (absolute): Angle by which
the entire slot is rotated. The center of rotation is the
position at which the tool is located when the cycle is
called. Input range -360.000 to 360.000
Slot position (0/1/2/3/4)
Q367: Position of the slot
in reference to the position of the tool when the cycle
is called:
0: Tool position = Center of slot
1: Tool position = Left end of slot
2: Tool position = Center of left slot circle
3: Tool position = Center of right slot circle
4: Tool position = Right end of slot
Feed rate for milling
Q207: Traversing speed of the
tool in mm/min while milling. Input range 0 to
99999.999; alternatively FAUTO, FU, FZ
Climb or up-cut
Q351: Type of milling operation with
M3:
+1 = climb milling
–1 = up-cut milling
+0 = climb milling; if a mirror function is active, the
climb milling method remains effective
