For simple machining operations, you have the option to reduce the wide variety of
parameters to the most important parameters using the "Input" selection field. In this "Input
simple" mode, the hidden parameters are allocated a fixed value that cannot be adjusted.
Various defined values can be pre
-assigned using setting data.
Please refer to the machine manufacturer's specifications.
If the workpiece programming requires it, you can display and change all of the parameters
using "Input complete".
1. The tool approaches the center point of the slot at rapid traverse at the height of the
retraction plane and adjusts to the safety distance.
2. The tool is inserted into the material according to the method selected.
3. The longitudinal slot is always machined from inside out using the selected machining
method.
4. The tool moves back to the safety distance at rapid traverse.
You can select any of the following machining types for milling the longitudinal slot:
● Roughing
Roughing involves machining the individual planes of the slot one after the other from the
inside out, until depth Z1 or X1 is reached.
● Finishing
During finishing, the edge is always machined first. The slot edge is approached on the
quadrant that joins the corner radius. During the last infeed, the base is finished from the
center out.
● Edge finishing
Edge finishing is performed in the same way as finishing, except that the last infeed
(finish base) is omitted.
● Chamfering
Chamfering involves edge breaking at the upper edge of the longitudinal slot.
