HEIDENHAIN MANUALplus 4110 Recess Machining Example 9.4
Create the “Form roll” cycle program
Run a graphic simulation of the cycle
The tool-path simulation accounts for the exact geometry of the tool tip. Therefore, this 
simulation is recommended for the recessing process.
 Press the ICP cut radial 
menu key
Enter the cycle parameters:
 Starting point X: 62 mm 
 Starting point Z: 2mm
 Recessing width P: No entry
(The recessing width is derived from 
the “cutting width” tool parameter.)
 I oversize X: 0.2 mm
 K oversize Z: 0.2 mm
 ICP contour number N: 3
(For programming of the ICP contour, 
see Page 11)
 Distance DX to the subsequent 
recess: No entry
 Distance DZ to the subsequent 
recess: No entry
 Q number of recess cycles: 1
 Tool number T: 10
 Cutting speed S: 120 m/min
 Feed rate per revolution F: 
0.2 mm/rev
Assume the tool number and technology 
data from the tool file.
