1.3 Features
Graphic simulation
 Graphic depiction of the sequence of smart.Turn or DINplus
programs and graphic depiction of a Teach-in cycle or Teach-in
program
 Simulation of the tool paths as wire-frame or cutting-path graphics,
special identification of the rapid-traverse paths
 Machining simulation (2-D material-removal graphic)
 Side or face view, or 2-D view of cylindrical surface
 Display of programmed contours
 Shifting and magnifying functions
Tool system
 Database for 250 tools, optionally 999 tools
 Description can be entered for every tool
 Optional support of multipoint tools (tools with multiple reference
points or multiple cutting edges)
 Turret or multifix system
Technology database
 Cutting data is entered in the cycle or in the UNIT as default values
 9 workpiece-material/tool-material combinations (144 entries)
 Optionally 62 workpiece-material/tool-material combinations (992
entries)
Interpolation
 Linear: In 2 principal axes (max. ± 100 m)
 Circular: in 2 axes (radius max. 999 m)
 C axis: Interpolation in the linear axes X and Z with the C axis
 Y axis: Linear or circular interpolation of two axes in the given plane.
The respective third axis can simultaneously perform linear
interpolation.
 G17: XY plane
 G18: XZ plane
 G19: YZ plane
 B axis: Drilling, boring and milling operations in oblique planes
