Parameterisation
Required input parameters
Input parameters | Description |
@P1 | Reference plane (absolute) |
@P2 | Retraction plane (absolute) |
@P3 | Safety clearance in Z (relative to reference plane/machining height) |
@P4 | Depth of longhole (relative to reference plane) |
@P5 | Maximum infeed Z (unsigned) |
@P44 | Number of longholes |
@P72 | Length of longhole |
@P74 | Circle radius of centre point positions |
Optional input parameters
Input parameters | Description |
@P20 | Feed rate for finishing for milling in the XY plane (values in mm/min, inch/min) |
@P21 | Feed rate for infeed in Z (values in mm/min, inch/min) |
@P32 | Feed mode in Z 1: Vertical 2: Oscillating (default) |
@P40 | Position of circle centre point in X Default value is the current position |
@P41 | Position of circle centre point in Y Default value is the current position |
@P45 | Starting angle of first slot (in degrees) Default value = 0 |
@P46 | Incremental angle (in degrees) Default value = 360°/number of longholes |
The function of the parameters acting in the XY plane is derived largely from the graphic below:
It is recommended to use the Syntax check.to verify whether the input parameters are correctly assigned.
Parameters which mainly refer to the Z axis are displayed in the graphic below:
