10.2 Milling
Parameter Description
Machining The following machining operations can be selected:
● ∇ (roughing)
● ∇∇ (pre-finishing)
● ∇∇∇ (finishing)
● ∇∇∇ base (base finishing)
● ∇∇∇ edge (edge finishing)
● Chamfering
Technology
● Vortex milling
● Plunge cutting
Milling direction: - (except plunge cutting).
● Climbing cutting
● Conventional cutting
● Climbing-conventional cutting
The positions refer to the reference point:
X0 Reference point X
Y0 Reference point Y
Z0 Reference point Z
W Slot width
L Slot length
Z1 Slot depth (abs) or depth in relation to Z0 (inc)
DXY
● Maximum plane infeed
● Maximum plane infeed as a percentage of the milling cutter diameter- (only for ∇ and
DZ Maximum depth infeed - (only for ∇, ∇∇ pre-finishing, ∇∇∇ and ∇∇∇ edge)- (only for vortex
milling)
UXY Plane finishing allowance (slot base) - (only for ∇, ∇∇ pre-finishing and ∇∇∇ base)
UZ Plane finishing allowance (slot edge) - (only for ∇, ∇∇ pre-finishing and ∇∇∇ edge)
FS Chamfer width for chamfering (inc) - (for chamfering only)
ZFS Insertion depth of tool tip (abs or inc) - (for chamfering only)
* Unit of feedrate as programmed before the cycle call

The milling cutter performs circular motions along the length of the slot and back
again.
Sequential drilling motion along the tool axis.
