Examples of milling cycles
Milling on the face
In this example, a pocket is milled. The milling
example in "9.8 ICP Example, Milling Cycle" illustrates
the complete machining process on the face,
including contour definition.
The machining process is performed with the cycle
"ICP contour, axial." To describe a contour, define the
basic contour first. Then superimpose the rounding
arcs.
Tool data (milling cutter)
 WO = 8—Tool orientation
