8.3 Simulation
Simulation of the tilted plane
3-D view: The simulation correctly displays tilted Y planes and
referenced elements (pockets, holes, patterns etc.).
Contour graphics: The simulation displays the YZ view of the
workpiece and the contours of the tilted planes in the side view. To
represent the drilling patterns and milling contours perpendicularly
to the tilted plane, i.e. without distortion, the simulation ignores
the rotation of the coordinate system and a shift within the rotated
coordinate system.
With contour graphics for tilted planes, please note the following:
The parameter K of G16 or SURFACE Y defines the start of the
drilling pattern or milling contour in the Z direction.
The drilling patterns and milling contours are drawn
perpendicularly to the tilted plane. This results in a shift relative
to the turning contour
Milling, drilling and boring operations: When you use the side
view to display the tool paths in the tilted plane, the same rules
apply as for the contour graphics.
During work on the tilted plane, the front window shows the
outline of the tool. The tool width is simulated true to scale. In this
way, you can check the overlap of milling paths. The tool paths are
also represented true to scale (in perspective view) as line graphics.
In all additional windows, the simulation shows the tool and the
cutting path when the tool is perpendicular to the relevant plane.
A tolerance of +/– 5° is taken into account. When the tool is not
perpendicular to the plane, it is represented as a light dot and the
tool path is depicted as a line.
Refer to your machine manual.
The depiction of the tool carrier depends on the
machine.
The graphic displays a tool carrier if the following
requirements are fulfilled:
The machine tool builder has saved a description of
the tool carrier, e.g. B axis head
You have assigned a tool holder to a tool
