6.4.4 Finishing Cycle (G70)
After rough cutting by G71, G72 or G73, the following command
permits finishing.
Format
G70 P(ns) Q(nf) ;
ns : Sequence number of the first block for the program of
finishing shape.
nf : Sequence number of the last block for the program of
finishing shape.
Explanation
- Operations
The blocks with sequence numbers ns to nf in the program for a target
figure are executed for finishing. The F, S, T, M, and second
auxiliary functions specified in the G71, G72, or G73 block are
ignored and the F, S, T, M, and second auxiliary functions specified in
the blocks with sequence numbers ns to nf are effective.
When cycle operation terminates, the tool is returned to the start point
in rapid traverse and the next G70 cycle block is read.
- Target figure check function
The following check can be made.
Check Related parameter
Checks that a block with the sequence
number specified at address Q is contained
in the program before cycle operation.
Enabled when bit 2 (QSR)
of parameter No. 5102 is
set to 1.
- Storing P and Q blocks
When rough cutting is executed by G71, G72, or G73, up to three
memory addresses of P and Q blocks are stored. By this, the blocks
indicated by P and Q are immediately found at execution of G70
without searching memory from the beginning for them. After some
G71, G72, and G73 rough cutting cycles are executed, finishing cycles
can be performed by G70 at a time. At this time, for the fourth and
subsequent rough cutting cycles, the cycle time is longer because
memory is searched for P and Q blocks.
