DYNAMIC CUTTER COMPENSATION (G41.1 AND G42.1)

To program dynamic Cutter Compensation to the left of the programmed tool path, program: G41.1 D~

To program dynamic Cutter Compensation to the right of the programmed tool path, program: G42.1 D~

  • D~ is the tip radius multiplied by two

G41.1 and G42.1 function the same as G41 and G42, with the added scope of being able to ignore the tool table and to program the tool diameter.
