Feed rate compensation: For 45° cutting, divide the hm value by the sine of the approach angle (the sine of 45° = 0,707)
i.e.: hm or 0,08mm
0,707 0,707 = 0,11mm programmed feed rate
Feed rate compensation: For 60° cutting, divide the hm value by the sine of the approach angle (the sine of 60° = 0,866)
i.e.: hm or 0,08mm
0,866 0,866 = 0,092mm programmed feed rate
