Circle center point CC

Application

The CC circle center function allows you to define a position as a circle center.

Description of function

You define a circle center point by entering coordinates for at most two axes. If you do not enter coordinates, the control uses the last defined position. The circle center point remains active until you define a new circle center point. The control does not traverse to the circle center point.

You need to define a circle center point before you can program a circular path with C.

 
Tip

The control simultaneously uses the CC function as the pole for polar coordinates.

Input

NC programs contained in this User's Manual are suggestions for solutions. The NC programs or individual NC blocks must be adapted before being used on a machine.

Change the following contents as needed:

  • Tools
  • Cutting parameters
  • Feed rates
  • Clearance height or safe position
  • Machine-specific positions (e.g., with M91)
  • Paths of program calls

Some NC programs depend on the machine kinematics. Adapt these NC programs to your machine kinematics before the first test run.

In addition, test the NC programs using the simulation before the actual program run.

 
Tip

With a program test you determine whether the NC program can be used with the available software options, the active machine kinematics and the current machine configuration.
