INCOMPATIBLE PROFILE error
If a profile cannot be executed with tool radius compensation, the INCOMPATIBLE PROFILE error may be issued.
In these cases it is possible to program the function G109R, which forces the generation of a fillet also around
internal edges (provoking a kind of “knot”) with the purpose to display the element generating the problem, and
eliminating the issuing of INCOMPATIBLE PROFILE error.
G109R is canceled by G109N.
Please pay attention that the activation of G109R may provoke the tool to enter in the programmed profile, and
long fillets may remain around internal edges in case of complex profiles.
Warning: usually G109R is programmed only to understand the situation provoking the INCOMPATIBLE
PROFILE error with tool radius correction. It is not a function to be used in normal programming.
4.6 Displayed
positions
and radius correction
During the execution of a profile with radius correction, the positions displayed by the CNC are still referred to the
virtual tool tip.
Therefore, in case of sloped walls or circular elements, the displayed positions don't correspond to the theoretical
profile positions.
The following figure depicts the path pertaining to the theoretical profile (solid line) and the positions of the virtual
tool tip displayed on the screen (dashed line).
