Unit 12 Tool Radius Compensation 第12单元 刀具半径补偿 Reading Target After reading this unit, you should be able to explain the purpose of tool radius compensation and identify the situations when it is appropriate to apply. Text 12.1 What is tool radius compensation? Tool radius compensation is the act of accommodating for the cutting tool radius in order to produce the work piece of the correct geometry. 12.1什么是刀具半径补偿 刀具半径补偿是一种调节刀具半径的行为，其目的是使加工出来的工件具有正确的几何形状。它通常也被称为刀具补偿或刀尖圆弧半径补偿。 Text 12.2 How cutter radius compensation works Understanding how the CNC control interprets motions under the influence of cutter radius compensation should help you learn how to use it and avoid problems with programming. In basic terms, you will tell the control (by a G code) the relationship of the milling cutter to the workpiece during the machining operation. 了解CNC控制器在施加刀具半径补偿时如何编译运动，，将十分有助于了解如何在程序中使用半径补偿并避免出错。简单地说，程序员需要告诉（通过Ｇ命令）控制器加工过程中铣刀和工件的位置关系。 Text 12.2 How cutter radius compensation works Either the cutter will be on the left side (G41) or right side (G42) of the workpiece as it machines the contour. Once cutter radius compensation is properly instated, the control will keep the milling cutter to the left or right (depending upon your choice) of all motions programmed. This can be a little difficult to visualize, especially for beginning programmers. 加工轮廓时，刀具或者在工件左边（G41），或者在右边（G42）。合理设定半径补偿后，铣刀完成程序中要求的所有动作时，控制器都要求它处于刀具的左边或者右边（根据程序员选择）。这可能有点难以想象，特别是对初学编程者而言。 Text 12.2 How cutter radius compensation works The CNC control will automatically keep the cutter center away from the programmed path by the amount of the specified cutter radius compensation offset. This is what allows you to program the work surface contour and let the control figure out the cutters center line path. CNC控制器会自动让刀心偏离编程轨迹，偏移的尺寸为特定刀具半径补偿偏置量。正因为如此，我们才可以直接对工件表面进行编程，而将计算刀心轨迹的工作留给控制器。 Text In this example, cu
