DETAIL
Data item Meaning
W UP CUT/DOWN CUT
[UP CUT] : Performs machining in up-cut mode,
assuming that the tool is rotating
clockwise.
[DWNCUT] : Performs machining in down-cut
mode, assuming that the tool is
rotating clockwise.
(COPY)
B CLEARANCE OF RADIUS Distance between the side face and a tool retract
position in the tool radius direction (radius value,
positive value)
Remark1) When one pocket cutting operation is
completed, the tool performs a retract
operation in the tool axis direction from
the side face of the pocket by this
clearance amount.
Remark2) By referring to the parameter No.27009
(minimum clamp value), the system sets
the data as Initial value.
C CLEARANCE OF AXIS Distance between the surface of a blank being
machined and a cutting start point (point R) in the
tool axis direction (radius value, positive value)
Remark) By referring to the parameter No.27009
(minimum clamp value), the system sets
the data as Initial value.
Z APROCH MOTION [2 AXES] : When moving from the current position
to the machining start point, the tool first
moves in the machining plane in
two-axis synchronous operation and
then moves along the tool axis. (initial
value)
[3 AXES] : The tool moves from the current
position to the machining start point in
three-axis synchronous operation.
