13.15 TURN CONTOUR,

TRANSVERSE (Cycle 820)

Application

This cycle enables you to face turn workpieces with any turning
contours. The contour description is in a subprogram.

You can use the cycle either for roughing, finishing or complete
machining. Turning is run paraxially with roughing.

The cycle can be used for inside and outside machining. If the starting
point of the contour is larger than the end point of the contour, the
cycle runs outside machining. If the starting point of the contour is
less than the end point of the contour, the cycle runs inside machining.

Roughing cycle run

The TNC uses the tool position as cycle starting point when a cycle is
called. If the Z coordinate of the starting point is less than the contour
starting point, the TNC positions the tool in the Z coordinate to the
contour starting point and begins the cycle there.

1

The TNC runs a paraxial infeed motion at rapid traverse. The infeed
value is calculated by the TNC with Q463 MAX. CUTTING DEPTH.

2

The TNC machines the area between the starting position and the
end point in the transverse direction. The transverse cut is run
paraxially with the defined feed rate Q478.

3

The TNC returns the tool at the defined feed rate by one infeed
value.

4

The TNC positions the tool back at rapid traverse to the beginning
of cut.

5

The TNC repeats this process (1 to 4) until the final contour is
completed.

6

The TNC positions the tool back at rapid traverse to the cycle
starting point.
