îš„ Radius compensated contour look ahead for up to 99 blocks (M120)
z Three-dimensional tool-radius compensation for subsequent changing of tool data
without having to recalculate the program
Tool tables Multiple tool tables with up to 30 000 tools
Cutting-data tables Cutting data tables for automatic calculation of spindle speed and feed rate from tool-
specific data (cutting speed, feed per tooth)
Constant contour speed îš„ With respect to the path of the tool center
îš„ With respect to the cutting edge
Parallel operation Creating a program with graphical support while another program is being run
3-D machining
(software option 2)
z Motion control with minimum jerk
z 3-D compensation through surface normal vectors
z Using the electronic handwheel to change the angle of the swivel head during program
run without affecting the position of the tool point (TCPM = Tool Center Point
Management)
