Tool path description:
Machining of the recess begins at side defined by the
From
point and machines towards the
To
point side
The tool initially moves to the
From
point, offset by the
Clearance
distance
The roughing passes are optional. If the roughing feed rate is 0,
the rough passes are skipped.
The amount of material machined on each rough pass is
determined by the system and will not exceed the specified
Pass
value
The
Plunge
is machined at the feed rate programmed in the
step. When the tool plunges directly into the material, the full
cut override is applied to the feed.
If a
Finish
allowance is specified, the programmed amounts are
left on the X and Z surfaces to be removed on the finish pass
The tool returns to the
Starting point
after completing the
rough passes
The
Finish
pass is optional. If finish
Feed
is 0, the
Finish
pass is
skipped.
The tool returns to the
Starting point
after the
Finish
pass
completes
If the approach move interferes with the part or
fixturing, it may be necessary to program a
Position
step to position the tool on the proper side of the part or
fixture prior to the
Plunge
step.
Contour
The
Contour
step is used to machine an irregular contour using a
turning tool.
The
Contour
step must be programmed immediately following the
last step of the contour path. The control indicates a continuous
path with a solid line to the right of the applicable step in the
program list.
From the
PGM
screen, press the
TURN
key to access the
Turn
popup menu
Select
