Main functions of CNC milling machines

Basic functions of milling machine

1. Point control function
This function can realize the processing of hole systems with high requirements for mutual position accuracy.
2. Continuous contour control function
This function can realize the interpolation function of straight lines and arcs and the processing of non-circular curves.
3. Tool radius compensation function
This function can be programmed according to the marked dimensions of the part drawing without considering the actual radius size of the tool used, thereby reducing the complex numerical calculations during programming.
4. Tool compensation function
This function can automatically compensate for the length of the tool to meet the requirements for tool length adjustment during processing.

5. Proportional and mirror processing function
The proportional function can execute the programmed processing program by changing the coordinate value according to the specified proportion.
Mirror processing is also called axisymmetric processing. If the shape of a part is symmetrical about the coordinate axis, then only one or two quadrants need to be programmed, and the contours of the remaining quadrants can be realized by mirror processing.
