Single position
Machining •
position
A circular pocket is machined at the programmed position (X0, Y0, Z0).
Position pattern
•
Several circular pockets are machined in a position pattern
(e.g. full circle, pitch circle, grid, etc.).
The reference points refer to the center point of the circular pocket:
X0 Reference point X – (for single position only)
Y0 Reference point Y – (for single position only)
Z0 Reference point Z – (for single position only)
∅ Diameter of pocket
Z1 Pocket depth (abs) or depth relative to Z0 (inc) – (only for ∇, ∇∇∇ and ∇∇∇
edge)
