Operation Manual

150 Teach-in mode
4.3 Single cut cycles
Contour linear, at angle (with return)
The CNC PILOT calculates the target position. The tool then
approaches the workpiece, executes the linear cut and returns to the
starting point at the end of cycle (see figures). Cutter radius
compensation is taken into account.
Type of machining for technology database access: Finishing
Parameter combinations for defining the target point: see help graphic
Cycle execution if "With return" is active
1 Calculate the target position
2 Move on a linear path from the starting point to the contour
starting point X1, Z1
3 Move to target position at programmed feed rate
4 Retract and return on paraxial path to starting point
Cycle parameters
X, Z Starting point
X1, Z1 Starting point of contour (if "With return" is active)
X2, Z2 Contour end point
A Start angle (range: –180° < A < 180°)
G47 Safety clearance (if "With return" is active)
T Turret pocket number
G14 Tool change point (if "With return" is active)
ID Tool ID number
S Spindle speed/cutting speed
F Feed per revolution
MT M after T: M function that is executed after the tool call T.
MFS M at beginning: M function that is executed at the
beginning of the machining step.
MFE M at end: M function that is executed at the end of the
machining step.
WP Displays which workpiece spindle is used to process the
cycle (machine-dependent)
 Main drive
 Opposing spindle for rear-face machining
