Tool Compensation (Cut2D, Cut2Df) - Siemens Sinumerik 840D sl Programming Manual

Tool radius compensation
11.6 2D tool compensation (CUT2D, CUT2DF)
Example 2: Contour path shorter than tool radius
The tool bypasses the workpiece corner on a transition circle, then continues on the
programmed path.
Example 3: Tool radius too large for internal machining
In such cases, the contours are machined only as much as is possible without causing a
contour violation.

With CUT2D or CUT2DF you define how the tool radius compensation is to act or to be
interpreted when machining in inclined planes.
