Cycles
|
3D Z-Level finishing
3D complete finishing
3D equidistant finishing, suitable for front-side finishing of Blue Blocks
5X Z-level finishing
Radial 5X equidistant finishing with the option of radially retracting and omitting/skipping (clipping) the connector, e.g., for grinding jobs on the connector side of Blue Blocks.
|
Side
|
Front/back/left/right/top/bottom
Enter the side to be machined; corresponds to the viewing direction configured [Front view].
|
Machining depth
|
Parameters for the machining depth applied to the blank.
|
Max. of bounding box
|
Machining area based on “back” view of the blank (bounding box).
|
Min. of bounding box
|
Machining area based on “from back to front” view of the blank (bounding box).
|
Center of bounding box
|
Machining area based on “from back to center” view of the blank (bounding box).
|
Bottom of blank
|
|
Top of blank
|
|
Offset depth
|
mm
Additional value for the machining depth. A larger value results in deeper machining.
|
Use/transform fixture boundary
|
|
Yes
|
When machining a side of the blank,
use milling boundaries for holders.
|
No
|
When machining the front side (from the perspective of the fixture).
|
Tilt strategy
|
|
Automatic
|
The lead angle is calculated automatically.
|
Radial Z
|
Enter lead angle is entered manually.
|
1) Lead angle
|
Lead angle
|
Lead angle setting.
|
Desired tilt angle / max. angle of inclination
|
Tilt angle with respect to the Z axis.
|
1) Tilt angle
|
Max. avoidance angle A/B
|
Maximum angle for avoiding collisions with regard to the A/B-axis.
|
Center at connector position
|
Use this to obtain clean cutting paths around the connector.
|
Yes
|
The center of the connector is the pivot point for the toolpaths around the connector.
|
No
|
The center of the part is the pivot point for the toolpaths around the connector.
|
Invert infeed direction
|
Reverse the machining direction.
|
Close caps
|
|
Yes
|
You must select “Yes” if the “Special function coping-specific alignment” option has been configured for the part.
You also need to select “Yes” for the following finishing cycles of the cavity.
