Cutting Style and Wheel Path
Chop Cutting
The Traditional form of machine operation. Wheel contacts arc is governed by sample depth. Can sometimes have a limited ability with large difficult parts.
Chop Cutting and Pulsing
Wheel contact still governed by sample depth. The pulsing action pauses the feed rate in short intervals enabling coolant to wash away swarf and dissipate heat, resulting in a better surface quality.
Y Feed Cut
The abrasive wheel is stationary and the cutting table moves forward completing a one time cut into the sample. Wheel contact arc is governed by sample height.
Y Feed Cut with Pulsing
The abrasive wheel is stationary and the cutting table moves forward completing a one time cut into the sample. Wheel contact arc is governed by sample height.
Planar Cut
In Planar mode, a Y-feed cut is completed in successive vertical steps. Wheel contact arc is governed by the height of each step rather than the height of the sample.
