Rotate Degree
The Rotate Degree function sets the degree the blade can stay down in the material and rotate if the blade is at the
vertex point of an angle.
Rotate Degree is only used when the closeness arc created is smaller than the
minimum radius
; therefore, this parameter is only used when the closeness value is very low (e.g., 0.010) and
the minimum radius is very high (e.g., 0.750).
The controller will move the knife to the vertex point and then compare the relative angle of the required theta
motion to the rotate degree value input at the keypad. With the knife tip at the vertex angle, the knife will twist to
the new angle while still in the material and then continue in X & Y. Some operators will use a lower degree for
thicker materials and a higher degree for thinner materials to prevent extra indentations in the material from where
the knife rotated.
•
Operators who wish to
enable rounding
should set a low closeness value, a high minimum radius
value, and a rotate degree value of greater than 90.
•
Operators who wish to
disable rounding
should set a high closeness value, a low minimum radius
value, and a rotate degree value of 90.
