Parameter Description Unit
TR Reference tool Tool, which is used in the "stock removal" machining step. This is used to
determine the plunge position.

Clamp/release spindle (only for end face Y/B and peripheral surface Y)
The function must be set up by the machine manufacturer.
Z0 Reference point in the tool axis Z mm
Z1 Pocket depth (abs) or depth referred to Z0 or X0 (inc) mm
CP Positioning angle for machining area
- (only for ShopTurn, machining surface, face Y)
Angle CP does not have any effect on the machining position in relation to the workpiece.
It is only used to position the workpiece with the rotary axis C in such a way that machining
is possible on the machine.

UXY Finishing allowance, plane mm
UZ Finishing allowance, depth mm
Lift mode Lift mode before new infeed
If the machining operation requires several points of insertion, the retraction height can be
programmed:
● To retraction plane
● Z0 + safety clearance
When making the transition to the next insertion point, the tool returns to this height. If
there are no elements larger than Z0 (X0) in the pocket area, then Z0 (X0) + safety
clearance can be programmed as the lift mode.

10.5.10 Milling contour pocket (CYCLE63)
Function
You can use the "Mill pocket" function to mill a pocket on the face or peripheral surface.
Before you remove stock from the pocket, you must first enter the contour of the pocket and, if
applicable, the contour of an island. Stock is removed from the pocket parallel to the contour
