9.1 FMC calculator.
This page allows the cutting conditions to be calculated for the chosen material and operation
and to insert the result into the edited program. The FMC only inserts the selected options
(green check mark to the left of the data).
Vertical softkey menu.
(A) Selected material (the list shows the materials determined from the materials table).
(B) Selected operation (the list shows the operations determined from the operations table).
(C) User defined cutting conditions for the selected material and operation; minimum, maximum and
selected values for the calculation. For Fagor materials and operations, the minimum and
maximum values cannot be modified. When the tool is a “thread" type (external thread or blade),
the feedrate per tooth must define the pitch of the thread.
(D) Comment.
(E) Tool. Select a tool from the list or write the tool number directly.
(F) Function M6 (tool change). This field is only visible when the tool field is selected
(G) Tool information.
- Milling tools; "Diameter" and "Number of teeth" (non-editable values).
- Turning tools; “Part diameter" (editable value).
- Other types of tools; "Diameter" and "Number of teeth" (editable values).
(H) Calculated cutting conditions; feedrate and velocity. The units of the cutting conditions are given
in the active units (millimeters or inches). The constant surface speed (m/min or ft/min) is only
available on the lathe model or dual-purpose machine.
(I) Calculated cutting conditions; cutting power and instruction to activate the DMC.
(J) Coating of the tool selected based on the recommended chosen values.

• The DMC function is subject to the corresponding software option. If this software option is not
active, the FMC calculator will not calculate the DMC function.
• The DMC is only available for the Fagor digital servo master spindle; if the master spindle is analog,
the FMC calculator cannot calculate the DMC function. The spindle must be enabled for the DMC
in the machine parameter DMCSPDL.
• DMC is only available for milling operations with "Milling" and "Surface milling” operations. For all
other operations, the FMC calculator will not calculate the DMC function.
