Departing in a straight line with tangential
connection:

DEP LT

The tool moves on a straight line from the last contour point P

E

to

the end point P

N

. The line lies on the extension of the last contour

element. P

N

is separated from P

E

by the distance

LEN.

Program the last contour element with the end point P

E

and

radius compensation
Initiate the dialog with the

APPR/DEP key and DEP LT soft key:

LEN: Enter the distance from the last contour

element P

E

to the end point P

N

.

Departing in a straight line perpendicular to the last
contour point:

DEP LN

The tool moves on a straight line from the last contour point P

E

to

the end point P

N

. The line departs on a perpendicular path from the

last contour point P

E

. P

N

is separated from P

E

by the distance

LEN

plus the tool radius.

Program the last contour element with the end point P

E

and

radius compensation
Initiate the dialog with the

APPR/DEP key and DEP LN soft key:

LEN: Enter the distance of the end point P

N

.

Remember: always enter

LEN as a positive value!

Departing on a circular path with tangential
connection:

DEP CT

The tool moves on a circular arc from the last contour point P

E

to

the end point P

N

. The circular arc connects tangentially to the last

contour element.

Program the last contour element with the end point P

E

and

radius compensation
Initiate the dialog with the

APPR/DEP key and DEP CT soft key:

Center angle

CCA of the arc

Radius R of the circular arc

If the tool should depart the workpiece in the

direction opposite to the radius compensation:

Enter R as a positive value.
If the tool should depart the workpiece in the

direction

opposite

to the radius compensation:

Enter R as a negative value.
