DETAIL
Data item Meaning
X POCKET CUTTING [CUT] : Cuts a pocket. (initial value)
[NOTHIN] : Does not cut a pocket.
Remark) This data item is enable when the
parameter No.27100#1 = 1.
Y OVERHANG CUTTING [CUT] : Cuts an overhang. (initial value)
[NOTHIN] : Does not cut an overhang.
Remark) This data item is enable when the
parameter No.27100#1 = 1.
• Tool path
<1> The tool moves to the position "cut-in start point + clearance (L,
M)" by rapid traverse.
<2> After cutting in in the Z-axis direction at the feedrate (F)
specified for the cutting direction, the tool cuts in to the
entered-figure position where there is still a finishing allowance
in the X-axis direction at the feedrate (E) specified for the cut-in
direction.
<3> If [SPEED] is selected, the tool immediately retracts by a return
clearance (U) in the X- and Z-axis direction. If [CUT] is selected,
the tool first cuts along the figure and then retracts by a return
clearance (U) in the X- and Z-axis direction.
<4> The tool moves to the cut-in start position in the X-axis direction
by rapid traverse.
<5> Steps <2> to <4> are repeated until the lowest portion in the
Z-axis direction is reached.
<6> If there is another pocket, the tool is positioned on the pocket,
and steps <2> to <4> are repeated.
<7> Once all portions are cut, the tool retracts to the position "cut-in
start position + clearance (M)" in the Z-axis direction at the rapid
traverse rate.
