Taper Calculator Soft Key - HEIDENHAIN ND 780 Handbuch

Taper Calculator Soft Key

(Turning applications only)
You can calculate tapers either by entering dimensions from a print, or
by touching a tapered workpiece with a tool or indicator.
Use the taper calculator to calculate taper angle.
Entry values:
For the taper ratio, calculation requires:
Change in the radius of the taper

Length of the taper

For taper calculations using both diameters (D1, D2) and length
requires:
Starting diameter

End diameter

Length of the taper

Press the CALC soft key.
You will notice the soft key selection has changed and
now includes the taper calculator functions.
D1/D2 LENGTH
To calculate the taper angle using two diameters and
length between, press the TAPER: D1/D2/L soft
keys.
First taper point, Diameter 1, either enter a point
using the numeric keys and press ENTER, or touch
the tool to one point and press NOTE.
Repeat this for the Diameter 2 field.
When using the NOTE key, the taper angle is
automatically calculated.
When entering data numerically, enter data into the
Length field, and press ENTER. The taper angle will
appear in the Angle field
TAPER RATIO
To calculate angles using the ratio of the diameter
change to length, press the TAPER: RATIO soft key.
Using the numeric keys, enter data into the Entry 1,
and Entry 2 fields. Press ENTER after each selection.
The calculated ratio, and the angle will appear in their
respective fields.
