Superimposed contours
By default, the TNC considers a programmed contour to be a
pocket. With the functions of the contour formula, you can convert
a contour from a pocket to an island.
Pockets and islands can be overlapped to form a new contour. You
can thus enlarge the area of a pocket by another pocket or reduce it
by an island.
Subprograms: overlapping pockets
The following programming examples are contour
description programs that are defined in a contour
definition program The contour definition program
is called through the SEL CONTOUR function in the
actual main program.
Pockets A and B overlap.
The TNC calculates the points of intersection S1 and S2 (they do
not have to be programmed).
The pockets are programmed as full circles.
