(4) Spindle function
This function can be used at general turning mode.
In generally, the axis load is not equal the value
of initial cutting load and the value of end
cutting load.
As shown the graph, the initial cutting current is
about 25[A] and the end cutting current is about
5[A].
When using the spindle function, the
measurement range decreases gradually in
accordance with size of workpiece (cylinder)
(5) Distance to Go/ Start Spindle function
Drilling cutting, and you have selected the Chip removal actual tool is to repeat the
process several times with G01 and G00, as show Figure
In the second re-processing, recognize at least a value of zero. So you can use the
Dist.to Go, Dist.to Start at TLM tool setting screen
▶ Dist. to Start : the axial distance from the start of the block in workpiece coordinate.
▶ Dist. to Go : The axial distance to the end of the block in workpiece coordinate.
