Milling cycles
Face milling
Depending on the parameters, the cycle mills on the end face:
• One or two surfaces (Q=1 or Q=2, B>0)
• One rectangle (Q=4, L<>B)
• One square (Q=4, L=B)
• One triangle or polygon (Q=3 or Q>4, L>0)
• One circle (Q=0, RE>0, L and B: no entry)
For one or two surfaces, “B“ defines the remaining thickness (the
material which remains). For an even number of surfaces you can
program “B“ instead of “V“.
Information on the cycle parameters:
B:
Width across flats
• When Q=1, Q=2: B is the remaining thickness
• Rectangle: Rectangle width
• Square, polygon (Q
4): B is the width across flats
• Circle: no entry
A:
Angle to the X axis – default: 0
• Polygon (Q>2): Position of the figure
• Circle: no entry
H:
Cutting direction – default: 0
• H=0: Up-cut milling
• H=1: Down-cut milling
J:
Uni-/bidirectional
• J=0: Unidirectional
• J=1: Bidirectional
O:
Roughing/finishing – default: 0
• O=0: Roughing
• O=1: Finishing
