Roughing Cycle Parameters
This chapter offers a discussion on the roughing cycle parameters
(sometimes referred to as compound turning routines). Roughing cycles
are only available for lathe control types.
The following screens become available when “Roughing Cycle
Parameters” is selected from the main menu screen:
Proj: AMPTEST Appl: AMP Util: Edit
F2-Project F3-Application F4-Utility F5-Configuration F1-File F2-Axis F3-Options F4-Quick Edit! F5-Process
Type : Lathe AXIS: X <P1> - linear P1: File : TEST
- Roughing Cycles Parameters -
Roughing cycles retract amount : 0.00000 mm
Percent of cutting depth : 100 %
Perform a rough-finishing cut : False
Roughing cycle threshold depth : 0.00000 mm
Important: Roughing cycles are not available for mill or grinder control
types. If an attempt is made to access this parameter group when a mill or
control type has been selected, the message “No Parameters For Current
Configuration” is displayed on the work station. It is necessary to select a
lathe control type to set any parameters in this parameter group.
Roughing cycle parameters are set for the cycles called by these G codes:
