Cycles: End Facing
Definition
|
Frontal Leadin: avoids the tool to lead in vertically, hence limiting the insert wear. The tool entry is from the front. cycle. The entry is now from the front. |
See the video as from 01:23

|
Leadin Distance: this value is the vertical distance between the stock and the start of the frontal pass also contributing to limiting the tool wear. |

Finishing Stock Allowance |
Leaves a stock allowance to be reworked by the finishing pass. In the case where there is a taper due to the insert shape on a Frontal leadin, a Finishing stock allowance can be input to solve this issue. Only the last toolpath is computed to machine the face completely vertical. See the video for an example. |
