Window for feed rate calculation:

Code letter

Meaning

S:

Spindle speed (rpm)

Z:

Number of teeth on the tool

(n)

FZ:

Feed per tooth (mm/tooth)

FU:

Feed per revolution (mm/rev)

F=

Result for feed rate (mm/min)

You can also calculate the feed rate in the TOOL

CALL block and automatically transfer it to the

subsequent positioning blocks and cycles. For feed

rate input in positioning blocks or cycles, select

the soft key F AUTO. The TNC then uses the feed

rate defined in the TOOL CALL block. If you have to

change the feed rate later, you only need to adjust

the feed-rate value in the TOOL CALL block.
