Setting-up ShopMill cycles for milling
Load ShopMill cycles for milling
When the control boots, the ShopMill cycles are automatically loaded into the following
directory: ../siemens/sinumerik/cycles/sm/prog
Setting the coordinate system
MD52000 $MCS_DISP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM
= 0
Examples:
=0 for vertical milling machines
=16 for horizontal milling machines, boring mill
A detailed description of the MD52000 is provided in Section:
Activating turning/milling/drilling/grinding technologies (Page 503)
For plane selection when milling, appropriately set the following machine data:
MD52005 $MCS_DISP_PLANE_MILL
= 17
= 0
= 17
= 18
= 19

= 0
= 0 The "dot" character is produced by a simple linear insertion movement of the tool (default
setting for conventional engraving tools, compatibility).
> 0 The "dot" character is executed as a circle with the radius value from this setting data (setting
for some special tools).
