2.1 OUTLINE
The standard corner cycle is characterized by following properties.
(1) The standard corner shape is defined by specifying start point,
end point and radius or camfer amount.
(2) The cycle is used to cut a rectangular corner.
(3) The corner can be shaped with an arc or with a chamfer.
(4) It is possible to select the cutting direction between Z, and X.
(5) In roughing cutting the tool moves parallel to the Z or X axis. In
finishing cutting the tool moves along the final shape
(6) Depending from the value of D-CUT it is possible to machine by
manual in-feeding or automatic in-feeding.
(7) The finish amount can be specified as cycle data.
(8) The tool number, feedrate, and spindle speed can be specified as
cycle data.
CAUTION
For outer corner the programmed figure shall be
monotonously decreasing.
For outer back corner and inner corner the
programmed figure shall be monotonously
increasing.
