Insertion The following insertion modes can be selected – (only for ∇, ∇∇∇ base or ∇∇∇
edge):
•
Vertical
The calculated actual infeed depth is executed at the calculated position
for "automatic" starting point – or at the specified position for "manual"
starting point.
Note:
This setting can be used only if the cutter can cut across center or if the
pocket has been predrilled.
•
Helical
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 circle motion is executed to eliminate the inclined
insertion path.
•
Oscillation
The cutter center point oscillates back and forth 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 in-
sertion path.
FZ (only for ShopTurn) Depth infeed rate – (only for vertical insertion and ∇) mm/min
mm/tooth
FZ (only for G code)
Depth infeed rate – (only for vertical insertion and ∇)
*
EP
Maximum pitch of helix – (for helical insertion only)
mm/rev
ER Radius of helix – (for helical insertion only)
The radius cannot be any larger than the milling cutter radius; otherwise,
material will remain.
mm
EW
Note
:
During insertion with oscillation, the message “Ramp path too short” will ap-
pear if the tool is less than the milling cutter diameter away from the insertion
point along the ramp. If this occurs, please reduce the angle of insertion.
Degrees
FS
Chamfer width for chamfering (inc) - (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
