Departure function DEP LN
Application
With the NC function DEP LN, the control departs from the contour on a straight line perpendicular to the last contour element.
Description of function
The tool moves in a straight line from the last contour point PE to the end point PN.
The distance from the end point PN to the contour point PE is LEN plus the tool radius.
Input
11 DEP LN LEN+10 F300 | ; Depart from the contour on a perpendicular linear path |
To navigate to this function:
Insert NC function All functions Path contour DEP DEP LN
The NC function includes the following syntax elements:
Syntax element | Meaning |
---|---|
DEP LN | Syntax initiator for a linear departure function perpendicular to the contour |
LEN | Distance of the auxiliary point PH to the contour Fixed or variable number Optional syntax element |
F, FMAX, FZ, FU, FAUTO | |
M |
Example DEP LN
11 L Y+20 RR F100 | ; Approach the last contour element PE with RR |
12 DEP LN LEN+20 F100 | ; Approach PN; distance PE to PN: LEN+20 |
