When Linear is selected in the COORDINATES field, these fields appear:
Figure 2–68. Live-Tooling Radial Mill Contour Line Segment screen: Linear Coordinates
• X’ END—defines the X end point for the segment. The X’ axis will move in the
physical Z direction.
• Y’ END—defines the Y end point for the segment. The Y’ axis will be wrapped
on the cylinder diameter.
• X’ START—defines the X start point for the segment. The X’ axis will move in
the physical Z direction. This read-only field is carried forward from the
previous segment and can only be edited in that screen.
• Y’ START—defines the Y start point for the segment. The Y’ axis will be
wrapped on the cylinder diameter. This read-only field is carried forward from
the previous segment and can only be edited in that screen.
• LENGTH—identifies the length of the line.
• ANGLE—defines the angle of the line segment from the start point to the end
point, measured counterclockwise from the home position.
• FEED—contains the feed rate from the previous segment. This value can be
accepted or changed.
