Define the mode of entry to the start point of the toolpath.
The Entry Mode parameter is only displayed in the Rough Parallel and Rough Spiral procedures (in the Entry & End Points section of the Procedure Parameter Table).
Optimized |
The entry mode is optimized to select the shortest machining time - plunging time (plunge length x plunge feed) is compared with slotting time (slot length x slot feed). |
||
By Length |
Define the maximum distance to search for a valid air plunge point. Enter this value into the parameter Max. Entry Length, which is displayed when By Length is selected.
|
||
No Plunging |
Entry can only be performed using horizontal movements (slotting). If this is impossible, entry is cancelled. In this case, the Ramp Angle is given a value of 0.000 degrees. |
||
Drilling |
The entry movements are performed using drilling motions. In this case, the Ramp Angle is given a value of 90.000 degrees. |
