8.6.3  High-speed settings (CYCLE832) 
Function    
With the "High Speed Settings" function (CYCLE832), data for the machining of 
free-form surfaces is pre-assigned values so that optimum machining is possible.  
The call of CYCLE832 contains three parameters: 
● Tolerance 
● Machining type (technology) 
● Input of the orientation tolerance (for 5-axis machines) 
Machining of free-form surfaces involves high requirements regarding velocity, precision and 
surface quality. 
You can achieve optimum velocity control depending on the type of machining (roughing, 
rough-finishing, finishing) very simply with the "High Speed Settings" cycle. 
Program the cycle in the technology program before the geometry program is called. 
The "High Speed Settings" cycle is also in conjunction with the "Advanced Surface" function. 
 
 
Software option 
You require the software option in order to use this function: 
"Advanced Surface" 
Machining methods 
With the "High Speed Settings" function, you can select between four technological 
machining types: 
●  "Finishing" 
●  "Rough-finishing" 
●  "Roughing" 
●  "Deselected" (default setting) 
 
 
Note 
Plain text entry 
You can enter the parameters in plain text in the "Machining" selection box. 
Plain text is generated for the "Machining mode" parameter when the input screen is 
closed.
