Separation cut parameters dialogue box
Waste Min/Max
Waste min X / Y
Here, you enter the minimum dimension that a cut-out in the X or Y direction must have in order for the piece to be treated as waste.
Waste max X / Y
Here, you enter the maximum dimension that a cut-out in the X or Y direction may have in order for the piece to be treated as waste.
Separation grid
Separation grid X / Z
The distance of the separation cuts in the X or Y direction is entered here.
Furthermore, an angle for separation grids can be integrated. The angle can be entered from 0° to 90°. If it becomes smaller than 0° or larger than 90°, it is initialised with 0°.
Parameters for separation cuts
Distance to the contour at the start of the cut
The distance between the start of the cut and the contour is entered here.
Distance to the contour at the cut end
The distance between the end of the cut and the contour is entered here.
Min cutting length
The minimum length of the separation cut is entered here.
Generate subroutine block
Here, you select whether a subroutine block is to be formed around the separating cuts or not.
Tool parameters
Laser diameter
The diameter of the laser beam is entered here.
Burn starting hole
The ignition hole is burnt with this option.
Punch starting hole
The ignition hole is punched with this option.
Punch diameter
The diameter of the punching tool is entered here.
Type of separation cut
No lead-in path
With this option, the separation cuts are generated without a lead-in path.
With straight lead-in path
This option creates separation cuts with a straight lead-in path.
Difference angle of lead-in path
The angle that the lead-in path should have to the cut-off is entered here.
Length of lead-in path
The length of the lead-in path is entered here.
Safety distance
Here, you enter the minimum distance that the piercing point of the lead-in path must have to the parts in order to create a separation cut.
With circular lead-in and lead-out path
With this option, the separation cuts are generated with a circular lead-in or lead-out path.
Radius
The radius of the circular path is entered here.
Length
The length of the lead-in path on the circular path is entered here.
Path correction
Here, you select whether the path correction is to be activated on the machine (Yes) or whether the traverse path is to be calculated equidistantly (No). For the equidistant calculation of the traverse path, the tool diameter is evaluated from the technology table of the current machine.
