Chamfers or roundings are defined at contour corners. A contour
corner is the point of intersection between the approaching
contour element and the departing contour element. A chamfer or
rounding cannot be calculated until the departing contour element
is known.
ICP integrates the chamfer or rounding in the G171, G172 or G173
basic element in smart.Turn mode of operation.
Contour begins with a chamfer or a rounding: Enter the position of
the intended corner as starting point. Then, in the form element
menu, select chamfer or rounding. Since the approaching contour
element is missing, you enter the Position AN to clearly define the
position of the chamfer or rounding.
ICP converts a chamfer or rounding at the start of the contour to a
linear or circular element.
