Contouring Control
All KERN machines are equipped with the latest Heidenhain contouring control systems. In conjunction with the Heidenhain glass scales (see "axis system"), the contouring control is an optimal combination of major machine elements.
Evenin their standard version, our Heidenhain controls are fitted with all the major functions required by a workshop. All Heidenhain contouring controls offer 5-axes interpolation, functions like rigid tapping, various milling and drilling cycles, parametric and subprogramming, teach-in programming, graphic display and simulation, tool management, tool radius correction for 5-axes simultaneous operation and DNC operation... but often with other manufacturers these features have to be ordered separately at additional cost.

For easy jobs such as face milling it is possible to traverse the axes manually by using the cursors – or even simpler – the electronic handwheel. The Heidenhain control can also be programmed remotely on a CAD/CAM system through its data interface – a postprocessor will render the data readable for the Heidenhain contouring control. Data transfer can be effected either via computer network or data transmission software.
