Rectangular Profile Cycle
The Rectangular Profile Cycle cleans up the inside or outside profile
of a rectangle. When run, the CNC rapids to the Ramp #1 starting
position, rapids to H (Z StartHgt), and then feeds to the depth of the
first cut.
The machine feeds into the profile along Ramp #1, cuts the
rectangle to the M (Length) and W (Width) specified then ramps
away from the work along Ramp #2.
When cutting an inside profile, the Graphic Menu displays ramp
moves.
When cutting an outside profile, the tool ramps into the profile along
Ramp #1 and away from the profile along Ramp #2.
The Rectangular Profile Cycle automatically compensates for tool
diameter. Activate the correct tool diameter before the cycle block.
