Parameter Description Unit
Insertion
The following insertion modes can be selected – (only for ∇, ∇∇∇ or ∇∇∇ edge):
• Predrilled (only for G code)
Approach reference point shifted by the amount of the safety clearance with G0.
• Vertical
Insert vertically in longitudinal groove center:
The tool is inserted to infeed depth at the "inside left" reference point.
Note: This setting can be used only if the cutter can cut across center.
• Helical(only for G code) insertion on helical path:
The cutter center point traverses along the helical path determined by the radius
and depth per revolution (helical path). If the depth for one infeed has been
reached, a full longitudinal slot is machined to eliminate the inclined insertion path.
• Oscillating
Insert with oscillation along center axis of longitudinal slot:
The cutter center point oscillates along a linear path until it reaches the depth
infeed. When the depth has been reached, the path is traversed again without
depth infeed in order to eliminate the inclined insertion path.
(only for
ShopTurn)
Clamp/release spindle (only for end face C/peripheral surface C, if inserted vertically)
The function must be set up by the machine manufacturer.
FZ
(only for G code)
Depth infeed rate – (for vertical insertion only) *
FZ
(only for
ShopTurn)
Depth infeed rate - (only for insertion, predrilled and perpendicular) mm/min
mm/tooth
EP
(only for G code)
Maximum pitch of helix – (for helical insertion only) mm/rev
ER
(only for G code)
Radius of helix – (for helical insertion only)
The radius cannot be any larger than the milling cutter radius; otherwise, material will
remain.
mm
EW Maximum insertion angle – (for insertion with oscillation only) Degrees
FS Chamfer width for chamfering - (for chamfering only) mm
ZFS Insertion depth of tool tip (abs or inc) - (for chamfering only) mm
* Unit of feedrate as programmed before the cycle call
