Example
Tool dimensions of a toroidal miller with reduced radius as compared with the standard tool.
Tool type R = shank radius r = corner radius
Standard tool with corner rounding R = $TC_DP6 r = $TC_DP7
Real tool with corner rounding:
Tool types 121 and 131 torus milling tool
(shaft milling tool)
R' = $TC_DP6 + $TC_DP15 + OFFN r' = $TC_DP7 + $TC_DP16
In this example, both $TC_DP15 + OFFN and $TC_DP16 are negative.
The tool type ($TC_DP1) is evaluated.
Only cutter types with cylindrical shank
(cylinder or end mill), toroidal millers (types
121 and 131) and, in the limit case,
cylindrical die mills (type 110) are permitted.
For these approved cutter types, the corner radius r is identical to the shank
radius R. All other permitted tool types are interpreted as cylindrical cutters
and the dimensions specified for the corner rounding are not evaluated.
All tool types of the numbers 1 - 399, with the
exception of the numbers 111 and 155 to
157, are permitted.
