Re: citizen L20 programming help! tool nose comp
I would suggest you direct program it without using cutter comp, or direct program it and comp it a R0 P8 if you need the radii adjustment.
You can program it using cutter comp with the tool radius in your R value, but you will need to switch the cutter comp quadrant (your P value in T-data, variable #23xx where xx is your offset number) in the middle of the cut and also workshift to the other side of the insert at that time. Looks like you would have to switch your P and workshift 3 times for turning this feature (at the top/bottom of each radius of your 3 radii).
Remember, cutter comp only correctly comps in a 90° angle (45° each side) from where your tool tip is pointed (determined by your P value), except when P0. In your example, you would be using almost 180° of comp.
