1.14 TURN PLUS: Y Axis
Y axis - Basics
TURN PLUS supports the definition of milling contours and holes and
creates working plans for milling and drilling with the Y axis.
Milling contours / holes: Milling contours are considered to be
figures (slots, rectangles, etc.), linear or circular patterns, or “free”
contours that you have defined. Holes are considered to be individual
holes or hole patterns.
Milling, drilling and boring operations: TURN PLUS supports
milling, drilling and boring in the IWG (Interactive Working plan
Generation) and AWG (Automatic Working plan Generation).
Before you use the AWG, assign machining attributes to the contour
(see User's Manual). With the familiar methods offered by TURN
PLUS, you can determine the sequence of milling operations, the use
of tools, etc.
The AWG can only be used for slides that have no B axis.
If a slide with a B axis has been declared in the program
head, automatic working plan generation is not possible.
Note on data input: When working with hierarchical
milling contours (pocket inside pocket, holes/figures on a
surface, etc.), you can use the up/down cursor keys to
select among all the contours provided on the hierarchy
level of a “workpiece surface.” With the right/left cursor
keys you can select among the milling contours of a
hierarchy level.
