Significance
TRACYL(d)
Activates the first TRACYL function specified in the channel
machine data. d is the parameter for the working diameter.
TRACYL (d, n)
Activates the n-th TRACYL function specified in the channel
machine data. The maximum for n is 2, TRACYL(d,1)
corresponds to TRACYL(d).
D
Value for the working diameter. The working diameter is
double the distance between the tool tip and the turning
center. This diameter must always be specified and be larger
than 1.
n
Optional 2nd parameter for the TRACYL data block 1
(preselected) or 2.
Slot side compensation
Optional 3rd parameter whose value for TRACYL is
preselected using the mode for machine data.
Value range:
0: Transformation type 514 without groove wall offset as
previous
1: Transformation type 514 with groove wall offset
TRAFOOF
Transformation OFF (BCS and MCS are once again identical).
OFFN
Offset contour normal: Distance of the groove side from the
programmed reference contour.
Note
An active
TRACYL transformation is likewise deactivated if one of the other transformations is
activated in the relevant channel (e.g.,
TRANSMIT, TRAANG, TRAORI).
Example: Tool definition
The following example is suitable for testing the parameterization of the TRACYL cylinder
