the first to third cycles)
G70 P300 Q400 ; (Executed after a search for the
fourth and subsequent cycles)
NOTE
The memory addresses of P and Q blocks stored
during rough cutting cycles by G71, G72, and G73
are erased after execution of G70.
All stored memory addresses of P and Q blocks
are also erased by a reset.
- Return to the cycle start point
In a finishing cycle, after the tool cuts the workpiece to the end point
of the target figure, it returns to the cycle start point in rapid traverse.
NOTE
The tool returns to the cycle start point always in
the nonlinear positioning mode regardless of the
setting of bit 1 (LRP) of parameter No. 1401.
Before executing a finishing cycle for a target figure
with a pocket cut by G71 or G72, check that the
tool does not interfere with the workpiece when
returning from the end point of the target figure to
the cycle start point.
- Tool nose radius compensation
Like G71, this cycle operation is performed according to the figure
determined by the tool nose radius compensation path when the offset
vector is 0 at start point A and start-up is performed in a block
between path A-A'.
