Fundamentals
Position of milling contours
Define the reference plane or the reference diameter in the section
code. Specify the depth and position of a milling contour (pocket,
island) in the contour definition:
With depth P programmed in the previous G308 cycle.
Alternatively on figures: Cycle parameter depth P.
The algebraic sign of “P” defines the position of the milling contour:
P<0: Pocket
P>0: Island
X: Reference diameter from the section code
Z: Reference plane from the section code
P: Depth from G308 or from the figure definition

The area milling cycles mill the surface specified in the
contour definition. Islands within this surface are not
taken into consideration.
