HEIDENHAIN TNC 426, TNC 430 267
8.4 Cycles for milling pockets, studs and slots
U Set-up clearance Q200 (incremental value): Distance
between tool tip and workpiece surface.
U Depth Q201 (incremental value): Distance between
workpiece surface and bottom of pocket
U Feed rate for plunging Q206: Traversing speed of
the tool in mm/min when moving to depth. If you are
plunge-cutting into the material, enter a value lower
than that defined in Q207
U Plunging depth Q202 (incremental value): Infeed per
cut.
U Feed rate for milling Q207: Traversing speed of the
tool in mm/min while milling.
U Workpiece surface coordinate Q203 (absolute
value): Coordinate of the workpiece surface
U 2nd set-up clearance Q204 (incremental value):
Coordinate in the tool axis at which no collision
between tool and workpiece (clamping devices) can
occur.
U Center in 1st axis Q216 (absolute value): Center of
the pocket in the reference axis of the working plane
U Center in 2nd axis Q217 (absolute value): Center of
the pocket in the minor axis of the working plane
U Workpiece blank diameter Q222: Diameter of the
premachined pocket for calculating the pre-position.
Enter the workpiece blank diameter to be less than
the diameter of the finished part
U Finished part diameter Q223: Diameter of the
finished pocket. Enter the diameter of the finished
part to be greater than the workpiece blank diameter.
