Rapid Traverse

—the feedrate that the table (X and Y axes) moves between one point in the part program to the next point in the program (rapid table positioning). Set in Program Parameters in Getting Started with WinMax Mill.

• The default is 400 ipm (10160.0 mm/min).

• The Range MAX value is user-defined in the Maximum Rapid Traverse Rate field on the Machine Specifications screen. The Range MIN value is 0.1 ipm (2.54 mm/min).

Rapid Z Position

—the tool (in the Z axis) rapids down to this position and then continues downward at the speed specified in the Fast Feed field. For Zero Calibration mode, use the remote jog unit or type in a value for the Rapid Z Position field; For Absolute Tool Length mode the value is determined by Rapid Clearance. With the cursor in this field, the Position Tool Over Probe softkey can be used to position the tool over the probe before jogging Z to the desired position.

Ream Chamfer

—the angle of the tool shaft.

Reference Angle (Deg)

—angle used to calculate bore orient retract angle.

Reference Method

—method of determining bore orient retract angle.

• Spindle Orient-insert the boring tool into the spindle with the cutting face in line with the tool holder’s orientation hole, opposite the spindle key. WinMax uses this oriented spindle key angle to determine the bore orient retract direction.

• Offset From 0 Degrees-user defined offset (degrees +/-) from 0° position (3 o’clock) for boring tools that cannot be inserted into the spindle with the cutting face in line with the tool holder’s orientation hole. Bore orient retract direction will be along this angle.

• Offset From Orient-user defined offset (degrees +/-) from oriented spindle key angle for boring tools that cannot be inserted into the spindle with the cutting face in line with the tool holder’s orientation hole. Bore orient retract direction will be along this angle.

Reference Point X

—the reference point for the G28 command. The WinMax software allows you to select the tool change positions (X, Y, Z) or maximum travel limit (X, Y).

Reference Point Y

—the reference point for the G28 command. The WinMax software allows you to select the tool change positions (X, Y, Z) or maximum travel limit (X, Y).

Reference Point Z

—the reference point for the G28 command. The WinMax software allows you to select the tool change positions (X, Y, Z) or maximum travel limit (X, Y).

—for Triangle, Diamond, and Hexagon, the direction of corner relief cut and the depth past the corner of the two walls. Provides the option of a right, center, or left relief cut (or none) in the corner at point 1.

Relief 2

—for Diamond 1 Face and Hexagon, gives the option of a right, center, or left relief cut (or none) in the corner at point 2.

Relief 3

—for Hexagon, gives the option of a right, center, or left relief cut (or none) in the corner at point 3 or the option of a face relief distance between points 3 and 4.

Render Mode

—choose the rendering for the part display: Solid, Wireframe, or All. Wireframe displays a line rendering of the part. Solid displays a solid 3-dimensional part.

Repeat Count

—the number of times a machine function (M Code) should repeat in a Machine Function block.

Repetitions

—the number of Slow Feed touches when touching tools to the probe. You can program up to 99 repetitions to get the average length and diameter of the tool.

Replace In Files

—specify if new tool feeds and speeds should be updated in current editing file only or in all open files.

Reset Cutting Time on Tool Data Change

—specify when to reset tool monitoring data:

• Type—when the tool type changes

• Diameter—when the tool diameter is out of the specified tolerance

• Length—when the tool length is out of the specified tolerance

For each, you can specify automatic reset, prompt to reset, or do not update (reset).

Reset Numbering

—resets the serial number back to the first string of the sequence. Select the Reset Numbering button or the Reset Numbering softkey.

Retain Probed Part Setup

—allows the probed part setup and/or tool calibrations to be retained for the current conversational part setup in new program runs. Choices are:

• Do Not Retain—probed part setup values are not retained after the current cycle run. Permanent changes to the part program are not made.

• Retain All—retains part setup and tool calibrations for the current conversational program, affecting future program runs.

For example, the following table shows Part Setup values for a sample program before and after a Probed Part Setup is executed:

Original Part Setup values	Probed Part Setup values
Part Zero X = 20.0000 Part Zero Y = 10.0000 Probe Z = 15.0000 Skew Angle = 0.0000 Zero Cal = 18.0000                 (Tool Setup)	Part Zero X = 19.1234 Part Zero Y = 11.1111 Probe Z = 16.5555 Skew Angle = 2.0045 Zero Cal = 17.4444                 (Tool Setup)

If Retain Probed Part Setup is set to Do Not Retain, the original values for Part Setup and Zero Cal will be restored. Part Setup and Tool Setup will contain the original data (20, 10, 15, 0, and 18).

If Retain Probed Part Setup is set to Retain All, Part Setup and Tool Setup will contain the probed values (19.1234, 11.1111, 16.5555, 2.0045, and 17.4444) in the current conversational program.

Retract Angle (Deg)

—angle by which the cutting edge of the boring bar retracts from the surface of the bored hole.

 

 

Retract Clearance

— the distance above Z Start to which the Z axis moves before rapid table positioning. This includes a tool moving from one drilled hole to another, or from one milling operation to another (programmed in separate data blocks or generated as a patterns operation).

• The default is the maximum programmable Z travel. This is the difference between the Z-Axis MAX Travel and the Z-Axis MIN Travel as indicated on the Machine Specifications screen.

• The range is 0 through 99.9999 inches (0 through 2514.6 mm).

• If the next operation has a different Z Start value, the CNC always retracts to the highest dimension. When a Position block is programmed, the tool always retracts to the safety plane programmed as Z Top of the Safety Work Region.

Retract Feed

—the feed rate to use when retracting away from the probe immediately after a deflection. This value is also used for the slow moves when determining deflection offsets.

Retract INCR

—scales the incremental moves that may be required if the probe is still deflected after the initial move.

Retract INIT

—scales the initial retract move after a deflection.

Retract Override

—when set to OFF the tool automatically retracts, reorients, and plunges, using a series of moves computed automatically that do not violate machine limits. Set to ON to override the automatic repositioning and enter a retract distance along the tool vector from the target position.

Retract Type

—the Z level to which Z-axis retracts at the beginning of the Universal Rotary Position data block.

• Z Home—Z-axis will move at Rapid feedrate to the position defined in Z Machine field.

• Z Position—Z-axis will move at Rapid feedrate to the position entered in the Z Position field.
