Milling depth
Q1 (incremental value): Distance
between the cylindrical surface and the floor of the
contour. Enter the milling depth to be greater than the
tooth length LCUTS
Finishing allowance for side
Q3 (incremental
value): Finishing allowance on the slot wall. The
finishing allowance reduces the slot width by twice
the entered value.
Set-up clearance
Q6 (incremental value): Distance
between the tool tip and the cylinder surface. The set-
up clearance entered must always be greater than the
tool radius.
Plunging depth
Q10 (incremental value): Dimension
by which the tool plunges in each infeed. Enter a
value less than the cylinder radius.
Feed rate for plunging
Q11: Traversing speed of the
tool in the spindle axis.
Feed rate for milling
Q12: Traversing speed of the
tool in the working plane.
Cylinder radius
Q16: Radius of the cylinder on which
the contour is to be machined.
Dimension type ? (ANG/LIN)
Q17: The dimensions for
the rotary axis (X coordinates) of the subprogram are
given either in degrees (0) or in mm/inches (1).
Slot width
Q20: Width of the slot to be machined.
Tolerance?
Q21: If you use a tool smaller than the
programmed slot width Q20, process-related
distortion occurs on the slot wall wherever the slot
follows the path of an arc or oblique line. If you define
the tolerance Q21, the TNC adds a subsequent
milling operation to ensure that the slot dimensions
are a close as possible to those of a slot that has been
milled with a tool exactly as wide as the slot. With
Q21 you define the permitted deviation from this
ideal slot. The number of subsequent milling
operations depends on the cylinder radius, the tool
used, and the slot depth. The smaller the tolerance is
defined, the more exact the slot is and the longer the
remachining takes. Recommendation: Use a
tolerance of 0.02 mm. Function inactive: Enter 0
