5.5 Working with Cutting Data Tables
The TNC must be specially prepared by the machine tool
builder for the use of cutting data tables.
Some functions or additional functions described here
may not be provided on your machine tool. Your machine
manual provides more detailed information.
In cutting data tables containing various workpiece and cutting
material combinations, the TNC can use the cutting speed V
C
and
the tooth feed f
Z
to calculate the spindle speed S and the feed rate
F. This calculation is only possible if you defined the workpiece
material in the program and various tool-specific features in the tool
table.
Before you let the TNC automatically calculate the
cutting data, the tool table from which the TNC is to take
the tool-specific data must be first be activated in the
Test Run mode (status S).
