Machining
● ∇ (roughing)
● ∇∇∇ (finishing)
● ∇∇∇ edge (edge finishing)
● Chamfering
Circular pattern
● Full circle
The circumferential slots are positioned around a full circle. The distance from one
circumferential slot to the next circumferential slot is always the same and is
calculated by the control.
● Pitch circle
The circumferential slots are positioned around a pitch circle. The distance from one
circumferential slot to the next circumferential slot can be defined using angle α2.
