Simplified R Function
Function :
The R function of the ES-12 is designed to machine simple ARC, in fact, after concluded from
years of our experience, we found that over 95% of the case, most of our customers just use
this ES-12 to machine very very simple ARC. Most of our customers found that the entr y of
machining parameters in the ARC function is quite complicated to them.
Therefore, it comes to an requirement that we must provide a very simple to use R function, so
that the operator can handle it in a very very short time.
After a work survey, we found that in majority of cases, only eight type of simple ARC are normally
used in the ARC machining. Therefore, this ES-12 have built in those 8 types of commonly used
ARCs, operator jusr select the type of R they needed to machine, input the Radius, tool dia,
and ( for the 2 axes ES-12, the Z axis increment per machining step ), then they can start the
R machining right away.

to machine XZ/YZ plane R
please notice that when using
flat end mill to machine R,
as we are actually using the
tool's sharp corner for cutting,
therefore the TOOL DIA must
be set to 0.000
