Calculating the radius-compensated path in advance
(LOOK AHEAD): M120 (Miscellaneous Functions
software option)
Standard behavior
If the tool radius is larger than the contour step that is to be
machined with radius compensation, the TNC interrupts program
run and generates an error message. M97” suppresses the error
message, but it results in dwell marks and will also move the
corner.
Further Information: "Machining small contour steps: M97",
page 392
If the programmed contour contains undercut features, the tool
may damage the contour.
Behavior with M120
The TNC checks radius-compensated contours for undercuts and
tool path intersections, and calculates the tool path in advance from
the current block. Areas of the contour that might be damaged by
the tool are not machined (dark areas in figure). You can also use
M120 to calculate the tool radius compensation for digitized data or
data created on an external programming system. This means that
deviations from the theoretical tool radius can be compensated.
Use LA ( L ook A head) behind M120 to define the number of blocks
(maximum: 99) that you want the TNC to calculate in advance.
Note that the larger the number of blocks you choose, the higher
the block processing time will be.
Input
If you enter M120 in a positioning block, the TNC continues the
dialog for this block by asking you the number of blocks LA that are
to be calculated in advance.
Effect
M120 must be located in an NC block that also contains radius
compensation

G42
