Q: What does Mazak parameter F104 do?

F104 is a User parameter in the EIA/ISO group of the MAZATROL SmoothX control (INTEGREX e-670H). Fine spline interpolation curve error (Block including no inflection point) 5-axis spline interpolation curve error 5-axis fairing command error. During block checking in the fine spline interpolation mode, if the spline curve of a specific block is judged to include no inflection point and the maximum chord error between the spline curve and the block is larger than the value of F104, the shape of the curve will be modified to reduce the maximum chord error below the value of F104. A B During block checking in the 5-axis spline interpolation mode, if the maximum chord error between the spline curve and the block is larger than the value of F104, the shape of the curve will be modified to reduce the maximum chord error below the value of F104. When F104 is set to 0, if the block is judged to include an inflection point, the spline curve of the block will be modified to be linear, and if it is judged to include no inflection point, it will not be modified (spline interpolation is realized). In 5-axis fairing, if the error between the command point and the point after fairing for the tool tip 3 axes is larger the value of F104, the point after fairing is modified to reduce the error below the value of F104. When F104 is set to 0, the point after fairing will not be modified. Point after fairing (with modification) Z

Machine-specific. This parameter list is specific to the Mazak INTEGREX e-670H / e-670H-S with the MAZATROL SmoothX control (manual HA64HA0035E). Other Mazak models and control generations use different addresses, ranges and meanings — verify on your own control before changing anything.

When F104 is set to 0, if the block is judged to include an inflection point, the spline curve of the block will be modified to be linear, and if it is judged to include no inflection point, it will not be modified (spline interpolation is realized). In 5-axis fairing, if the error between the command point and the point after fairing for the tool tip 3 axes is larger the value of F104, the point after fairing is modified to reduce the error below the value of F104. When F104 is set to 0, the point after fairing will not be modified. Point after fairing (with modification) Z
