PP Tables and Word Syntaxes - Axial Machining

The information in this section helps you manage Post-Processor word tables and PP word syntaxes for axial machining.

For axial machining operations, the standard parameters are either:

  • defined on the corresponding machining operation (geometrical data, machining strategy parameters, feeds and speeds, and so on),
  • calculated according to an app method.

This page discusses:

Examples

In the figures below:

  • the detail depth (MFG_DETAIL_DEPTH), total depth (MFG_TOTAL_DEPTH) and total depth up to the tool compensation point (MFG_TOTAL_DEPTH_COMP) are computed parameters.
  • the breakthrough distance (MFG_BREAKTHROUGH) is a machining strategy parameter
  • the tool tip length is a geometric attribute of the tool (MFG_TL_TIP_LGTH).

The overall breakthrough is the breakthrough distance plus the tool tip length.

  • Figure 1 showing Total depth without breakthrough

  • Figure 2 showingTotal depth with breakthrough (The figures below show Depth mode behavior on axial operations with chamfering machining):

  • Figure 3 showing Spot Drilling with Depth mode=By Tip

  • Figure 4 showing Countersinking with Depth mode=By Diameter

Cycle Off Syntaxes

To close the NC Instruction generated by machining operations, a different Cycle off syntax is used for each type of operations.

  • For the drilling operation, it uses NC_AXIAL_CYCLE _OFF
  • For the turning operation, NC_LATHE_CYCLE_OFF
  • And for the probing operation, NC_PROBING_CYCLE_OFF

By default (if the user defines nothing in the used PPtable) the NC_AXIAL_CYCLE_OFF, NC_LATHE_CYCLE_OFF and NC_PROBING_CYCLE_OFF instructions are defined by:
