2. MACHINING PROGRAMS FOR
LATHES WITH C–AXIS
TYPES OF MACHINING
PROGRAMS
407
(1) Roughing process
STAT–PZ : Z–coordinate of the point where cutting is
started
END–PTZ : Z–coordinate of the cutting end point
REMOVAL X : Cutting allowance for rough machining
The maximum residual fillet depends on the
shape of the notch and the diameter of the
blank. Enter a value much larger than the
maximum residual fillet ((a) in the figure).
(a)
TOOL–NO : Management number for a rough machining
tool
T–CODE : T–code for a rough machining tool
REV/MIN : Tool speed (rpm) for rough machining
FEED/MIN : Feedrate (mm/minute or inches/minute) for
rough machining
FINISHING X : Finishing allowance for the side face (along the
X–axis)
FINISHING Z : Finishing allowance for the bottom (along the
Z–axis)
JMILLNGGEAR : Milling gear selection for rough machining
(only when needed)
JCUT WID (%) : Depth of cut per operation in rough machining
(percentage of the tool diameter)
Depth of cut per operation in rough machining
(percentage of the tool diameter) Initially set to
50%, but can be changed manually.
(2) Finishing and chamfering
TOOL NO : Number of a finish machining tool (used for
tool management)
T–CODE : T–code for a finish machining tool
REV/MIN : Tool speed (per minute) for finish machining
FEED/MIN : Feedrate (mm/minute or inches/minute) for
finish machining
BEVEL–AM : Chamfer amount for the edge of a notch
JMILLNGGEAR : Milling gear selection for finish machining
(only when needed)
Data items other than those described above are
displayed on the program and detail data
screens in the same way as for other C–axis
machining.
