Please note while programming:
This cycle requires a center-cut end mill (ISO 1641) or
pilot drilling with Cycle 21.
You define the plunging behavior of Cycle 22 with
parameter Q19 and with the tool table in the ANGLE
and LCUTS columns:
If Q19=0 is defined, the TNC always plunges
perpendicularly, even if a plunge angle (ANGLE) is
defined for the active tool.
If you define the ANGLE=90°, the TNC plunges
perpendicularly. The reciprocation feed rate Q19 is
used as plunging feed rate.
If the reciprocation feed rate Q19 is defined in
Cycle 22 and ANGLE is defined between 0.1 and
89.999 in the tool table, the TNC plunges helically
at the defined ANGLE.
If the reciprocation feed is defined in Cycle 22 and
no ANGLE is in the tool table, the TNC displays an
error message.
If geometrical conditions do not allow helical
plunging (slot), the TNC tries a reciprocating
plunge. The reciprocation length is calculated
from LCUTS and ANGLE (reciprocation length =
LCUTS / tan ANGLE).
If you clear out an acute inside corner and use an
overlap factor greater than 1, some material might
be left over. Check especially the innermost path in
the test run graphic and, if necessary, change the
overlap factor slightly. This allows another distribution
of cuts, which often provides the desired results.
During fine roughing the TNC does not take a
defined wear value DR of the coarse roughing tool
into account.
If M110 is activated during operation, the feed rate
of compensated circular arcs within will be reduced
accordingly.
Danger of collision!
After executing an SL cycle you must program
the first traverse motion in the working plane with
both coordinate data, e.g. LX+80Y+0R0FMAX.
After the end of the cycle, do not position the
tool in the plane incrementally, but rather to an
absolute position if you have set the ConfigDatum
> CfgGeoCycle > posAfterContPocket parameter to
ToolAxClearanceHeight.
