 G72.1 cannot be specified more than once in a subprogram for making a
rotational copy (If this is attempted, alarm PS0900 will occur).
G72.2 cannot be specified more than once in a subprogram for making a
linear copy (If this is attempted, alarm PS0901 will occur).
In a subprogram that specifies rotational copy, however, linear copy can be
specified. Similarly, in a subprogram that specifies linear copy, rotational
copy can be specified.

Programming Notes

Notes
In the G72.2 block, addresses other than P, L, I and J are ignored.
P, I and J must always be specified.
If L is not specified, the figure is copied once.
For shifts (I, J), specify increments. The n-th geometric shift is equal to the
specified shift times (n – 1).

First block of the subprogram

Always specify a move command in the first block of a subprogram that performs
a linear copy. If the first block contains only the program number such as

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
O00001234; and does not have a move command, movement may stop at the
start point of the figure made by the n-th (n = 1,2, 3, …) copying.

Limitation

_Specifying two or more commands to copy a figure

G72.2 cannot be specified more than once in a subprogram for making a
linear copy (If this is attempted, alarm PS0901will occur).
In a subprogram that specifies linear copy, however, rotational copy (G72.1)
can be specified. Similarly, in a subprogram that specifies rotational copy,
linear copy can be specified.

Commands that must not be specified

Within a program that performs a linear copy, the following must not be specified:
_Command for changing the selected plane (G17 to G19)
_Command for specifying polar coordinates (G16)
_Reference position return command(G28)
_Axis switching
_Coordinate system rotation (G68)
_scaling (G51)
_programmable mirror image (G51.1)

Wire EDM Programming Example

Complete cnc programming example for machinists who work on a Wire EDM
machine (Electrical Discharge Machining)

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
CNC Wire Cut Introduction
Wire EDM cutting, also known as electrical discharge machining, is a process that
uses an electrically energized thin wire to slice through metal. Wire EDM cutting
uses rapid, controlled, repetitive spark discharges from the wire to the workpiece,
thereby eroding the metal away. The workpiece must be electrically conductive.

Wire EDM cutting can provide high dimensional accuracy for close fitting parts.
The process can make sharp inside corners.

G code Programming for Beginners
Learning G code programming is not that difficult.
Read and learn about a G code.
Understand how that G code work.
Then make a simple G code example drawing.
Make program for that example.
Run the program on your cnc machine (Safety first, keep a professional
around).
Or you can simply run a cnc program Simulation (but this always doesn’t
substitute the actual cnc machining process.)
The last thing is the most crucial which is Just practice practice and
practice.
This is a very simple G code example for beginner level cnc programmers /
cnc machinists.
This G code program example don’t use Tool radius compensation

CNC Lathe Programming Example
A simple cnc lathe programming example. This cnc programming example will
show how to program contours like chamfer taper grooves and arc.
This cnc program will use two tools for machining. The first tool used in this cnc
programming example is a turning tooland the second one is a grooving tool.

Contents
• CNC Machining
• CNC Program

CNC Machining
The turning tool will first face the component then it will make a chamfer, after
that there is straight turning and then there is arc machining the arc may be
machined with R (Radius of arc) or arc can be machined with I and K values of
the arc, at the top of arc there is a chamfer, then again straight turning, now there
comes the groove but we can’t make grooves with turning tools because of
their shape so we will machine the groove with our next tool which is solely
made for grooving operations, but at the time we are machining with turning tool
so we will just skip this groove and will just machine in straight line, after that
there is a taper and again a straight line to be machined.
Now with our grooving tool the groove machining task is just easy.
if the grooving insert is of the same size as the dimension of the groove then
grooving is even more easy, we will make the groove in one go, but if
the grooving insert is of smaller width than we have to take depth more than one
time.

Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle

Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle
G71 turning cycle is used for rough-material removal from a cnc lathe
component. G71 turning cycle makes large diameter cutting easy. Cutting can
be done in simple straight line or a complex contour can also be machined very
easily.
Through G71 turning cycle parameters cnc machinists can control

 Depth of cut.
Retract height.
Finishing allowance in x-axis and z-axis.
Cycle cutting-feed, spindle speed.

Programming
G71 U... R...
G71 P... Q... U... W... F... S...

Parameters
First block
Parameter Description
U Depth of cut.
R Retract height.

Second block
Parameter Description
P Contour start block number.
Q Contour end block number.
U Finishing allowance in x-axis.
W Finishing allowance in z-axis.
F Feedrate during G71 cycle.
S Spindle speed during G71 cycle.

G71 Turning Cycle Overview

• G71 turning cycle cuts the whole contour repeatedly which is given in P Q
blocks.
• Depth of every cut can be controlled by first-block U value.
• Second-block U W are the finishing allowances which can be given if you
want to make a finish cut with G70 finishing cycle.
• F is cutting feed and S is spindle speed (given in second-block) which are
used during G71 turning cycle.

Note – The F and S given inside P Q block will not be used during G71 turning
cycle, they are used with G70 finishing cycle if later called.

N60 G71 U10 R10
N70 G71 P80 Q90 U3 W0 F0.25
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
When G71 turning cycle is run the whole operation will be done in following
sequence,

First-cut
1 – Tool will move in x-axis U (depth of cut) deep with programmed feed from
starting-point.
2 – Tool will travel with feed in z-axis (destination point in z-axis is given in P Q
blocks )
3 – Tool rapidly retracts R amount in both x-axis and z-axis (at 45 degrees).
4 – Tool rapidly travel in z-axis to start-point

Later-cuts
5 – Tool rapidly moves to last cut depth.
6 – Tool moves with feed in x-axis U deep (first-block U depth of cut).
7 – Tool with feed moves in z-axis (destination point given in P Q blocks).
8 – Tool rapidly retracts in x-axis and z-axis R amount (45 degrees).
9 – Tool rapidly moves to start-point only in z-axis.

This whole sequence of operation keep on going, until the destination point in x-
axis is met.
If finishing allowance is given tool will not make the exact diameter and length
given in P Q blocks but will leave that much allowance, This finishing allowance
can be later machined by calling G70 finishing cycle.

Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle

Fanuc G71 Example

Here is a cnc part-program which shows how G71 turning cycle can be used, this
is the program for the drawing given above
N50 G00 X106 Z5 M3 S800

 N60 G71 U10 R10
N70 G71 P80 Q90 U3 W0 F0.25
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
In this program G71 turning cycle will keep repeating the contour given inside P
Q blocks shown below
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
These two cnc program blocks tell us that we want to remove material till X60
deep and in Z-75 in length.
The depth of cut is given in first-block U10 retract amount is also given R10.
Finishing allowance in x-axis is U3 but there is no finishing allowance given in z-
axis W0.

G70 Finishing Cycle

If you programmed G71 turning cycle with finishing allowances then that finish
allowances can be removed with G70 finishing cycle.
G70 finishing cycle repeats the whole contour the G71 way, but in just one-cut
removing the finishing allowances.
Why Use G70 Finishing Cycle
As material can be removed with G71 turning cycle, but if you want a different
cutting-feed and spindle speed for the last cut, then it is recommended that you
use G70 finishing cycle.
G70 finishing cycle use F and S values which are given inside P Q programmed
blocks. (G71 use F S values which are given inside G71 second block.)

Explanation of CNC Program Code using Fanuc G94

Facing Cycle
N40 : shows the staring position of the tool.
N50 : the values of x and z with G94 facing cycle are the destination values
for the facing cut.
N60 : G94 is a modal G code. “Modal” G code meaning that they stay in
effect until they are cancelled or replaced by a contradictory G code. It
means G90 turning cycle remains active until another motion command is
given like G00, G01 etc
But as you can see the cnc program block N60 only show the value for z-
axis, so it means that the G94 facing cycle will continue to work and now
G94 facing cycle will make the second facing cut, whose x-axis value will
remain the same but the z-axis value will now be -4.0
N70 : the third facing cut will be taken at -6.0
N80 : fourth cut will be taken at -8.0
N90 : this cnc program block show a contradictory G-code for G94 which is
G00, so this mean that the Fanuc G94 facing cycle has been ended. The tool
will move rapidly to x200 z200.

Notes
• In the G72.2 block, addresses other than P, L, I and J are ignored.
• P, I and J must always be specified.
• If L is not specified, the figure is copied once.

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
• For shifts (I, J), specify increments. The n-th geometric shift is equal to the
specified shift times (n – 1).
First block of the subprogram
Always specify a move command in the first block of a subprogram that performs
a linear copy. If the first block contains only the program number such as
O00001234; and does not have a move command, movement may stop at the start
point of the figure made by the n-th (n = 1,2, 3, …) copying.

In a subprogram that specifies linear copy, however, rotational copy (G72.1) can
be specified. Similarly, in a subprogram that specifies rotational copy, linear copy
can be specified.
Commands that must not be specified
Within a program that performs a linear copy, the following must not be specified:
_Command for changing the selected plane (G17 to G19)
_Command for specifying polar coordinates (G16)
_Reference position return command(G28)

Fanuc G81 Drilling Cycle

G81 drilling cycle is used for simple drilling/spot drilling operations.

Syntax
G81 X... Y... Z... R... K... F...
Parameter Description
X Hole position in x-axis.
Y Hole position in y-axis.
Depth, tool will travel with feed to Z-depth
Z
starting from R plane.
R Position of the R plane.
Number of cycle repetitions (if
K
required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once G81 drilling cycle is defined, the canned cycle is repeated at every X-Y
position in sequential blocks. So G81 drilling cycle must be cancelled with G80.

Usage

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
 N30 G81 X10 Y30 Z-17 R2 F75
N40 Y10
N50 X30
N60 Y30
N70 X90
N80 Y10
N90 G80
In the above example drilling will start with G81 drilling cycle at X10 Y30, so
first drill will be at X10 Y30, then second at Y10, third at X30, fourth at Y30,
fifth at X90 and the last one at Y10, because next block have G80 code, so
drilling cycle will no more be repeated.
Working
Here is briefly described how G81 drilling cycle operates,
1- Rapid traverse to the specified x,y axis position (drilling position).
2- Rapid traverse to the R plane position.
3- Drilling with specified Feed from R-plane position to Z-depth position.
4- Rapid traverse to Initial level or R-plane depends on G98, G99 modes.

G81 drilling cycle working

G98 G99 Modes

After completing drilling depth the return is made with Rapid feed, the return
height can be controlled through using G98 or G99.
G98 Drill will return to the Initial level
G99 Drill will return to R-plane.
G98, G99 can be used multiple times during G81 drilling cycle.
Example
N30 G81 X10 Y30 Z-17 R2 F75

N50 G98 X30
N60 G99 Y30
N70 X90

N90 G80
Repeat Drilling
With G81 drilling cycle drilling operation can be repeated multiple times. The
drilling is repeated K times when that parameter is given with G81 drilling cycle.

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
Repeat drilling is normally used with G91 Incremental mode, and a good example
of repeated drilling is Grid-plate drilling. the example for repeat drilling is given
below.

G82 drilling cycle with dwell can be used for normal drilling where bottom of the
hole need more accurate machining.
Otherwise if you just want a drilling cycle without a dwell time at the bottom of
the hole G81 drilling cycle is a big time saver.
Following is a cnc programming example which illustrates the use of G82 Drill
cycle.

G81 Drilling Cycle G83 Peck Drilling

with G98 G99 Example Program

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
A complete cnc part-program which shows how G98 and G99 (canned cycle
return level) work with G81 drilling cycle and G83 peck drilling cycle for drilling
of a component which have different heights.

G98 G99 Summary

G98 and G99 are modal commands that change the way canned cycles (G81,G83
etc.) operate.
When G98 is active, the Z-axis will return to the start position (initial plane) when
it completes an single operation.
When G99 is active, the Z-axis will be returned to the R point (plane) when the
canned cycle completes a single hole. Then the machine will go to the next hole.

Syntax
G81 X... Y... Z... R... K... F...
Parameter Description
X Hole position in x-axis.
Y Hole position in y-axis.
Depth, tool will travel with feed to Z-depth starting from
Z
R plane.
R Position of the R plane.
Number of cycle repetitions (if
K
required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once G81 drilling cycle is defined, the canned cycle is repeated at every X-Y
position in sequential blocks. So G81 drilling cycle must be cancelled with G80.
Usage
N30 G81 X10 Y30 Z-17 R2 F75
N40 Y10
N50 X30
N60 Y30
N70 X90
N80 Y10
N90 G80
In the above example drilling will start with G81 drilling cycle at X10 Y30, so
first drill will be at X10 Y30, then second at Y10, third at X30, fourth at Y30,
fifth at X90 and the last one at Y10, because next block have G80 code, so
drilling cycle will no more be repeated.
Working
Here is briefly described how G81 drilling cycle operates,
1- Rapid traverse to the specified x,y axis position (drilling position).
2- Rapid traverse to the R plane position.
3- Drilling with specified Feed from R-plane position to Z-depth position.
4- Rapid traverse to Initial level or R-plane depends on G98, G99 modes.

G81 drilling cycle working

G98 G99 Modes

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
After completing drilling depth the return is made with Rapid feed, the return
height can be controlled through using G98 or G99.
G98 Drill will return to the Initial level
G99 Drill will return to R-plane.
G98, G99 can be used multiple times during G81 drilling cycle.

N90 G80
Repeat Drilling
With G81 drilling cycle drilling operation can be repeated multiple times. The
drilling is repeated K times when that parameter is given with G81 drilling cycle.
Repeat drilling is normally used with G91 Incremental mode, and a good example
of repeated drilling is Grid-plate drilling. the example for repeat drilling is given

Fanuc G83 Peck Drilling Cycle

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
G83 peck drilling cycle perform the drilling operation in multiple pecks, this
technique makes deep-hole drilling easy and economical.
Cutting feed is performed intermittently to the bottom of the hole while chips are
discharged.
As the drilling is performed to the bottom of the hole with feed in multiple small
steps, every time a specified depth is made and then drill retracts, then drill makes
the next peck, this operation is repeated again and again until the drill depth is
reached.

Syntax
G83 X... Y... Z... R... Q... F... K...
Parameter Description
X Hole position in x-axis.
Y Hole position in y-axis.
Depth, tool will travel with feed to Z-depth starting
Z
from R plane.
R Position of the R plane.
Q Depth of cut for each cutting feed (Peck).
Number of cycle repetitions (if
K
required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once given in program G83 peck drilling cycle is repeated at every axis
movement until G80 is given in program to end peck drilling cycle.
Usage

CNC Sub Programs
Sub-programming is a way in which cnc machinists can call other cnc programs
stored in cnc machines from their programs (called as main-programs).
Read article about How to do Fanuc Sub Programming.
This Sub-programming process makes it easier for cnc programmers/machinists to
keep their cnc programs small by dividing programs into small pieces of
repeatable useful code.

Fanuc Sub Programming

As the below cnc program example shows,
cnc machinist want to drill some holes and then he want to tap the same holes.

What is a CNC Plasma Cutting Machine
Plasma Cutting
Plasma cutting is a process that is used to cut steel and other metals of different
thicknesses (or sometimes other materials) using a plasma torch. In this process,
an inert gas (in some units, compressed air) is blown at high speed out of a nozzle;
at the same time an electrical arc is formed through that gas from the nozzle to the
surface being cut, turning some of that gas to plasma. The plasma is sufficiently
hot to melt the metal being cut and moves sufficiently fast to blow molten metal
away from the cut.

CNC Plasma Cutting Machine

CNC Plasma Cutter
A “CNC plasma” system is a machine that carries a plasma torch, and can move
that torch in a path directed by CNC (Computer Numerical Control), which means
that a computer is used to direct the machines motion based on numerical codes in
a program.

CNC Wire Cut Introduction
Wire EDM cutting, also known as electrical discharge machining, is a process that
uses an electrically energized thin wire to slice through metal. Wire EDM cutting
uses rapid, controlled, repetitive spark discharges from the wire to the workpiece,
thereby eroding the metal away. The workpiece must be electrically conductive.

Wire EDM cutting can provide high dimensional accuracy for close fitting parts.
The process can make sharp inside corners.

CNC Program Example G03 Circular

Interpolation
Now a day CAD and CAM software make our lives just easier and easier, you just
not have to calculate a single point in drawing, every thing is just ready. But it is a
good practice to know actually how the calculations are being done, if not all but
some which are necessary for a CNC programmer.

CNC Program Example G03 Circular Interpolation

The calculation of G02 G03 circular interpolation values is a good technique to
learn. This CNC program tells not all but a little of course enough for the beginner
CNC programmer and CNC students.

Description
The I and K for the G03.
I Calculation for G03 Circular Interpolation
I is the distance from the arc start point to arc center point in x-axis. This value is
not given in diameter but as a radius value, so
• Find the start diameter it is 11
• Now make it radius value by dividing it by 2 such as 11 / 2 = 5.5
• This is a easy example in way that the arc center point distance from the
workpiece center point is given other wise we have to calculate it.
• So now just add 2.5 in 5.5 earlier calculated 2.5 + 5.5 = 8
• This is the value of I 8 this is the distance from the arc start point to the ace
center point.
K Calculation for G03 Circular Interpolation
K is the distance from the arc start point to arc center point in z-axis.
• In this example it is just easy as you just have to subtract 21 from 15 such
as 21 – 15 = 6.
• So the value from the arc start point to the arc center point in z-axis is 6

CNC Circular Interpolation Tutorial

G02 G03
This cnc circular interpolation tutorial will easily make you learn how to use G02
G03 G-code.
CNC programming of a component is easy if you divide the component on
drawing in small pieces, and cnc program every piece one by one.
At the end you will see that whole the process is same, whether you are
machining a simple component or a very complex one.
The idea is same you will just use G00, G01, G02, G03 and so on.

CNC Lathe Programming Example

A simple cnc lathe programming example. This cnc programming example will
show how to program contours like chamfer taper grooves and arc.
This cnc program will use two tools for machining. The first tool used in this cnc
programming example is a turning tooland the second one is a grooving tool.
Contents
• CNC Machining
• CNC Program
CNC Machining
The turning tool will first face the component then it will make a chamfer, after
that there is straight turning and then there is arc machining the arc may be
machined with R (Radius of arc) or arc can be machined with I and K values of
the arc, at the top of arc there is a chamfer, then again straight turning, now there
comes the groove but we can’t make grooves with turning tools because of
their shape so we will machine the groove with our next tool which is solely
made for grooving operations, but at the time we are machining with turning tool

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
so we will just skip this groove and will just machine in straight line, after that
there is a taper and again a straight line to be machined.
Now with our grooving tool the groove machining task is just easy.
if the grooving insert is of the same size as the dimension of the groove then
grooving is even more easy, we will make the groove in one go, but if
the grooving insert is of smaller width than we have to take depth more than one
time.

CNC Circular Interpolation Tutorial

G02 G03
This cnc circular interpolation tutorial will easily make you learn how to use G02
G03 G-code.
CNC programming of a component is easy if you divide the component on
drawing in small pieces, and cnc program every piece one by one.
At the end you will see that whole the process is same, whether you are
machining a simple component or a very complex one.
The idea is same you will just use G00, G01, G02, G03 and so on.

Parameter Description

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
X Hole position in x-axis.
Y Hole position in y-axis.
Depth, tool will travel with feed to Z-depth starting from
Z
R plane.
R Position of the R plane.
Number of cycle repetitions (if
K
required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once G81 drilling cycle is defined, the canned cycle is repeated at every X-Y
position in sequential blocks. So G81 drilling cycle must be cancelled with G80.
Usage
N30 G81 X10 Y30 Z-17 R2 F75
N40 Y10
N50 X30
N60 Y30
N70 X90
N80 Y10
N90 G80
In the above example drilling will start with G81 drilling cycle at X10 Y30, so
first drill will be at X10 Y30, then second at Y10, third at X30, fourth at Y30,
fifth at X90 and the last one at Y10, because next block have G80 code, so
drilling cycle will no more be repeated.
Working
Here is briefly described how G81 drilling cycle operates,
1- Rapid traverse to the specified x,y axis position (drilling position).
2- Rapid traverse to the R plane position.
3- Drilling with specified Feed from R-plane position to Z-depth position.
4- Rapid traverse to Initial level or R-plane depends on G98, G99 modes.

G81 drilling cycle working

G98 G99 Modes
After completing drilling depth the return is made with Rapid feed, the return
height can be controlled through using G98 or G99.
G98 Drill will return to the Initial level
G99 Drill will return to R-plane.
G98, G99 can be used multiple times during G81 drilling cycle.

Repeat Drilling
With G81 drilling cycle drilling operation can be repeated multiple times. The
drilling is repeated K times when that parameter is given with G81 drilling cycle.
Repeat drilling is normally used with G91 Incremental mode, and a good example
of repeated drilling is Grid-plate drilling. the example for repeat drilling is given

• Explanation
• G & M Codes
G98 G99 Summary
G98 and G99 are modal commands that change the way canned cycles (G81,G83
etc.) operate.
When G98 is active, the Z-axis will return to the start position (initial plane) when
it completes an single operation.
When G99 is active, the Z-axis will be returned to the R point (plane) when the
canned cycle completes a single hole. Then the machine will go to the next hole.

in G91 Incremental Mode Example
Code
This cnc program example explains the use of G81 Drilling cycle but this time the
tool is not positioned in the usual way (G90 absolute programming mode) but this
time G91 Incremental Programming Mode is used.
This programming example code also explains the use of G81 drilling cycle
parameter K (number of repeats), which is not normally used.
Contents
• G81 Drilling Cycle Format
• CNC Code G81 Drilling Cycle with G91 Inremental Programming
◦ Explanation
G81 Drilling Cycle Format
G81 X_ Y_ Z_ R_ F_ K_ ;
X_ Y_: Hole position data
Z_ : Z-depth (tool will travel with feed to Z-depth starting from R plane)
R_ : The distance from the initial level to point R level
F_ : Cutting feedrate
K_ : Number of repeats (if required)
G81 drilling cycle parameter K (number of repeats). On different cnc controls this
parameter has different letter assign to it such as on,
• Fanuc uses letter K for number of repeats.
• Haas CNC uses letter L for number of repeats.
• Fagor CNC Control uses letter N for number of repeats.
Incremental motion in canned cycle is often useful as a loop count, which can be
used to repeat the operation with an incremental X or Y move between each cycle.

K3 means that the G81 drilling cycle will repeat three times.
G91 Incremental mode makes the tool to move every time X50 and Y50
So first hole will be at X50 Y50
Second hole will be at X100 Y100 because
X100 = X50(previous value) + X50 (increment)
Y100 = Y50(previous value) + Y50 (increment)
Third hole will be at X150 Y150 because
X150 = X100(previous value) + X50 (increment)
Y150 = Y100(previous value) + Y50 (increment)
N50 G98 G90 G00 X500 Y500
The fourth hole position is given with G90 Absolute Programming Mode.
The above code is only possible if you use G91 Incremental Programming Mode
with G81 Drilling cycle, but if you try to use G90 Absolute Programming Mode
with G81 as above you will see the tool will repeat drilling at the same position.

Explanation
Once G81 drilling canned cycle is defined, the canned cycle is repeated at every
X-Y position in sequential blocks, G80 code is used to cancel G81 drilling cycle.
N1- Tool change to tool no.1
N2- Tool rapidly moves to first drilling position X0.3 Y1.2 while taking into
account Zero-offset-no. 1
N3- Drill starts rotating clockwise with 1200 rpm.
N4- Drill takes depth Z1. taking into account tool length compensation (G43
H01), coolant is turned on.
N5- Drilling cycle parameters, drill depth and cutting feed are given, with this
command first drill is made at current position (X0.3 Y1.2).
N6- As drilling cycle continues it’s work with every axis movement so next drill
is done at X1.2 Y0.3
N7- Drilling cycle is canceled with G80 command, Coolant is turned off.
N8- As operation for this component is finished, so cutting tool is taken to
reference position, and cutter rotation is stopped.

Fanuc G75 Grooving Cycle CNC

Program Example
I have posted about Fanuc G75 Grooving Cycle. The Fanuc G75 grooving
cycle has multiple parameters, which can be set according to your needs. In this
post here is a cnc program example for the G75 Fanuc grooving cycle. Although it
is a simple cnc program example for grooving, but this cnc program can be easily
altered to your needs.
The fanuc G75 grooving cycle is briefly described in this article Fanuc G75
Grooving Cycle, so here is the cnc program example and some explanation of the
cnc program.

Note: The grooving tool is 4mm wide, so I started from z-22.
Every time the grooving tool will take 2mm (P2000) cut in x-axis, and it will
retract 1mm (Pecking, First R1)
After a groove in x-axis is complete it will start the next groove by moving the
grooving tool by 3mm (Q3000) in z-axis, and it will repeat it.

CNC Lathe Programming Example
A simple cnc lathe programming example. This cnc programming example will
show how to program contours like chamfer taper grooves and arc.
This cnc program will use two tools for machining. The first tool used in this cnc
programming example is a turning tooland the second one is a grooving tool.
Contents
• CNC Machining
• CNC Program
CNC Machining
The turning tool will first face the component then it will make a chamfer, after
that there is straight turning and then there is arc machining the arc may be
machined with R (Radius of arc) or arc can be machined with I and K values of
the arc, at the top of arc there is a chamfer, then again straight turning, now there
comes the groove but we can’t make grooves with turning tools because of
their shape so we will machine the groove with our next tool which is solely
made for grooving operations, but at the time we are machining with turning tool
so we will just skip this groove and will just machine in straight line, after that
there is a taper and again a straight line to be machined.
Now with our grooving tool the groove machining task is just easy.
if the grooving insert is of the same size as the dimension of the groove then
grooving is even more easy, we will make the groove in one go, but if
the grooving insert is of smaller width than we have to take depth more than one
time.

Quincunx a CNC Plasma Cutting

Controller Program Example
CNC program example to cut Quincunx on a CNC Plasma Cutting Controller.
This program example is programmed in G91 Incremental programming.

What is a CNC Plasma Cutting Machine

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
Plasma Cutting
Plasma cutting is a process that is used to cut steel and other metals of different
thicknesses (or sometimes other materials) using a plasma torch. In this process,
an inert gas (in some units, compressed air) is blown at high speed out of a nozzle;
at the same time an electrical arc is formed through that gas from the nozzle to the
surface being cut, turning some of that gas to plasma. The plasma is sufficiently
hot to melt the metal being cut and moves sufficiently fast to blow molten metal
away from the cut.

CNC Plasma Cutter

A “CNC plasma” system is a machine that carries a plasma torch, and can move
that torch in a path directed by CNC (Computer Numerical Control), which means
that a computer is used to direct the machines motion based on numerical codes in
a program.

Fanuc G83 Peck Drilling Cycle

G83 peck drilling cycle perform the drilling operation in multiple pecks, this
technique makes deep-hole drilling easy and economical.

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
Cutting feed is performed intermittently to the bottom of the hole while chips are
discharged.
As the drilling is performed to the bottom of the hole with feed in multiple small
steps, every time a specified depth is made and then drill retracts, then drill makes
the next peck, this operation is repeated again and again until the drill depth is
reached.

Syntax
G83 X... Y... Z... R... Q... F... K...
Parameter Description
X Hole position in x-axis.
Y Hole position in y-axis.
Z Depth, tool will travel with feed to Z-depth starting from R plane.
R Position of the R plane.
Q Depth of cut for each cutting feed (Peck).
K Number of cycle repetitions (if required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once given in program G83 peck drilling cycle is repeated at every axis
movement until G80 is given in program to end peck drilling cycle.
Usage
N150 M06 T02
N160 G90 G00 X60 Y28 Z12 S750 M03
N170 G99 G83 X60 Y28 Z-17 Q6 R2 F60
N180 G98 Y12
N190 G91 G80 G28 X0 Y0 Z0 M05
N200 M30
In the above example code first drill is done at X60 Y28 and second at Y12 and
then peck drilling is cycle is ended with G80.
6mm pecks are taken to complete total drilling depth of 17mm.
Working
Here is briefly described how G83 peck drilling cycle works,
1- Rapid traverse to X, Y drilling position.
2- Rapid traverse to R-plane.
3- Drilling with feed Q deep.
4- Retraction with Rapid traverse to R-plane.
5- Rapid traverse to Q-d deep (d value is specified in parameters).
6- Drilling with feed Q+d deep.
7- Retraction with Rapid traverse to R-plane
– this whole procedure is repeated until drill reaches Z-depth position,

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
– then drill is retracted to R-plane or Initial-level depends on G99 or G98 which
one is given in program.

G83 peck drilling cycle working

G98 G99 Modes
After completing drilling depth the return is made with Rapid feed, the return
height can be controlled through using G98 or G99.
G98 Drill will return to the Initial level
G99 Drill will return to R-plane.
G98, G99 can be used multiple times during G83 peck drilling cycle.

N40 Y10
N50 G98 X30
N60 G99 Y30
N70 X90
N80 Y10
N90 G80
Repeat Drilling
G83 peck drilling cycle, drilling operation can be repeated multiple times. The
drilling is repeated K times if K value is given with G83.
Repeat drilling is normally used with G91 Incremental mode, and a good example
of repeated drilling is Grid-plate drilling. For working example see G81 drilling
cycle.

Number of cycle repetitions (if
K
required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once G81 drilling cycle is defined, the canned cycle is repeated at every X-Y
position in sequential blocks. So G81 drilling cycle must be cancelled with G80.
Usage
N30 G81 X10 Y30 Z-17 R2 F75
N40 Y10
N50 X30
N60 Y30
N70 X90
N80 Y10
N90 G80
In the above example drilling will start with G81 drilling cycle at X10 Y30, so
first drill will be at X10 Y30, then second at Y10, third at X30, fourth at Y30,
fifth at X90 and the last one at Y10, because next block have G80 code, so
drilling cycle will no more be repeated.
Working
Here is briefly described how G81 drilling cycle operates,
1- Rapid traverse to the specified x,y axis position (drilling position).
2- Rapid traverse to the R plane position.
3- Drilling with specified Feed from R-plane position to Z-depth position.

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
4- Rapid traverse to Initial level or R-plane depends on G98, G99 modes.

G81 drilling cycle working

G98 G99 Modes
After completing drilling depth the return is made with Rapid feed, the return
height can be controlled through using G98 or G99.
G98 Drill will return to the Initial level
G99 Drill will return to R-plane.
G98, G99 can be used multiple times during G81 drilling cycle.

N40 Y10
N50 G98 X30
N60 G99 Y30
N70 X90
N80 Y10
N90 G80
Repeat Drilling
With G81 drilling cycle drilling operation can be repeated multiple times. The
drilling is repeated K times when that parameter is given with G81 drilling cycle.
Repeat drilling is normally used with G91 Incremental mode, and a good example
of repeated drilling is Grid-plate drilling. the example for repeat drilling is given
below.

Drilling Grid Plate with G81 Drilling
Cycle – Sample CNC Program
CNC machine workshops deal with variety of components, of course cnc
machinists program and machine them.
But a cnc machinists also should understand and practice new and economical
ways to machine a component.
The following cnc programming example can be programmed in variety of ways,
the method of cnc programming used in this cnc program sample uses G81
drilling cycle with G91 Incremental Programming mode, which makes
programming easy.
Fanuc cnc control uses K with G81 drilling cycle to repeat drilling cycle.
Haas cnc controls use L to repeat G81 drilling cycle.
Following cnc program is written for haas cnc machine but can easily be
converted for Fanuc cnc controls.
You might read other cnc programming example which shows the same technique

G81 Drilling Cycle – Repeat Drilling

in G91 Incremental Mode Example
Code
This cnc program example explains the use of G81 Drilling cycle but this time the
tool is not positioned in the usual way (G90 absolute programming mode) but this
time G91 Incremental Programming Mode is used.
This programming example code also explains the use of G81 drilling cycle
parameter K (number of repeats), which is not normally used.

G81 Drilling Cycle Format

G81 X_ Y_ Z_ R_ F_ K_ ;
X_ Y_: Hole position data
Z_ : Z-depth (tool will travel with feed to Z-depth starting from R plane)
R_ : The distance from the initial level to point R level
F_ : Cutting feedrate
K_ : Number of repeats (if required)

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
G81 drilling cycle parameter K (number of repeats). On different cnc controls this
parameter has different letter assign to it such as on,
• Fanuc uses letter K for number of repeats.
• Haas CNC uses letter L for number of repeats.
• Fagor CNC Control uses letter N for number of repeats.
Incremental motion in canned cycle is often useful as a loop count, which can be
used to repeat the operation with an incremental X or Y move between each cycle.

K3 means that the G81 drilling cycle will repeat three times.
G91 Incremental mode makes the tool to move every time X50 and Y50
So first hole will be at X50 Y50
Second hole will be at X100 Y100 because
X100 = X50(previous value) + X50 (increment)
Y100 = Y50(previous value) + Y50 (increment)
Third hole will be at X150 Y150 because
X150 = X100(previous value) + X50 (increment)
Y150 = Y100(previous value) + Y50 (increment)
N50 G98 G90 G00 X500 Y500
The fourth hole position is given with G90 Absolute Programming Mode.

The above code is only possible if you use G91 Incremental Programming Mode
with G81 Drilling cycle, but if you try to use G90 Absolute Programming Mode
with G81 as above you will see the tool will repeat drilling at the same position

Simple CNC Lathe Drilling with

Fanuc G74 Peck Drilling Cycle
Here is a cnc programming example for simple drilling on a cnc lathe machine.
CNC Fanuc control has a very powerful and versatile peck drilling cycle (Fanuc
G74) which relieves us from many unwanted chores. Although Fanuc G74 peck
drilling cycle for fanuc cnc control can be used in variety of ways but this cnc
programming example is just doing a simple peck drilling. One thing for newbies
in cnc field is that we can simply drill a component by just giving a feed with
G01.
N10 G00 X0 Z10
N20 G01 Z-30 F0.2
N30 G01 Z10 F1

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
If we can drill with the above method them why use a peck drilling cycle.
Actually peck drilling (Fanuc G74) gives us some hidden benefits like
• Longer drill life
• Proper chip breaking
• Proper chip removal
• Prevents component from heating
• Smooth drilling
• Easy to program
So here is the simple cnc program example which shows simple cnc peck drilling
(Fanuc G74) on a cnc lathe machine

 Peck Drilling Lathe
Fanuc G83 Peck Drilling Cycle
G83 peck drilling cycle perform the drilling operation in multiple pecks, this
technique makes deep-hole drilling easy and economical.
Cutting feed is performed intermittently to the bottom of the hole while chips are
discharged.
As the drilling is performed to the bottom of the hole with feed in multiple small
steps, every time a specified depth is made and then drill retracts, then drill makes
the next peck, this operation is repeated again and again until the drill depth is
reached.

Syntax
G83 X... Y... Z... R... Q... F... K...

Parameter Description
X Hole position in x-axis.
Y Hole position in y-axis.
Depth, tool will travel with feed to Z-depth starting
Z
from R plane.
R Position of the R plane.
Q Depth of cut for each cutting feed (Peck).
Number of cycle repetitions (if
K
required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once given in program G83 peck drilling cycle is repeated at every axis
movement until G80 is given in program to end peck drilling cycle.
Usage

N180 G98 Y12
N190 G91 G80 G28 X0 Y0 Z0 M05
N200 M30

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
In the above example code first drill is done at X60 Y28 and second at Y12 and
then peck drilling is cycle is ended with G80.
6mm pecks are taken to complete total drilling depth of 17mm.
Working
Here is briefly described how G83 peck drilling cycle works,
1- Rapid traverse to X, Y drilling position.
2- Rapid traverse to R-plane.
3- Drilling with feed Q deep.
4- Retraction with Rapid traverse to R-plane.
5- Rapid traverse to Q-d deep (d value is specified in parameters).
6- Drilling with feed Q+d deep.
7- Retraction with Rapid traverse to R-plane
– this whole procedure is repeated until drill reaches Z-depth position,
– then drill is retracted to R-plane or Initial-level depends on G99 or G98 which
one is given in program.

G83 peck drilling cycle working

G98 G99 Modes
After completing drilling depth the return is made with Rapid feed, the return
height can be controlled through using G98 or G99.
G98 Drill will return to the Initial level
G99 Drill will return to R-plane.
G98, G99 can be used multiple times during G83 peck drilling cycle.

G83 Peck Drilling Cycle Example

CNC programming example code for the G83 Peck Drilling Cycle. G83 deep hole
peck drilling cycle makes the drilling of deep holes a breeze.
As with G81 drilling cycle you can do simple drilling in a fast and easy way.
But G83 peck drilling due to its specialty of pecking throws away the chips after
every cut or peck and this way also the coolant reaches to the bottom of the hole
in a free way, so keeps the drill and component cool and clean.
The following G83 peck drilling cycle example code illustrates the use of peck
drilling cycle in an easy to understand way, even the beginner level cnc
programmers/cnc machinists will understand the working with ease.

G98 G99 Summary
G98 and G99 are modal commands that change the way canned cycles (G81,G83
etc.) operate.
When G98 is active, the Z-axis will return to the start position (initial plane) when
it completes an single operation.
When G99 is active, the Z-axis will be returned to the R point (plane) when the
canned cycle completes a single hole. Then the machine will go to the next hole.

CNC Mill Contour Pecking – Fanuc

Subprogram Repeat Example
A very simple cnc programming example which shows
how a contour can be repeated multiple times with the added benefit of pecking.
So like peck drilling this time cnc machinists are pecking a specific contour of cnc
mill.

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
What is Fanuc Sub programming read Fanuc Sub Programming

CNC Mill Contour Pecking

The subprogram is a simple mix of G-code instructions.
The main program O4000 calls subprogram O4001 to repeat 10 times
M98 P104001
Subprogram cuts contour by making 2mm depth of cut every time (in G91
Incremental Programming)
G1 G91 Z-2 (Incremental peck depth)
Then subprogram switches back to G90 Absolute Programming this makes
contour programming easy.
So this program cuts a specific contour 20mm deep by taking 10 pecks of 2mm
each.

Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle
Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle
G71 turning cycle is used for rough-material removal from a cnc lathe
component. G71 turning cycle makes large diameter cutting easy. Cutting can be
done in simple straight line or a complex contour can also be machined very
easily.
Through G71 turning cycle parameters cnc machinists can control
Depth of cut.
Retract height.
Finishing allowance in x-axis and z-axis.
Cycle cutting-feed, spindle speed.
Programming
G71 U... R...
G71 P... Q... U... W... F... S...
Parameters
First block
Parameter Description
U Depth of cut.
R Retract height.
Second block
Parameter Description
P Contour start block number.
Q Contour end block number.
U Finishing allowance in x-axis.
W Finishing allowance in z-axis.
F Feedrate during G71 cycle.
S Spindle speed during G71 cycle.
G71 Turning Cycle Overview
• G71 turning cycle cuts the whole contour repeatedly which is given in P Q
blocks.
• Depth of every cut can be controlled by first-block U value.
• Second-block U W are the finishing allowances which can be given if you
want to make a finish cut with G70 finishing cycle.
• F is cutting feed and S is spindle speed (given in second-block) which are
used during G71 turning cycle.
Note – The F and S given inside P Q block will not be used during G71 turning
cycle, they are used with G70 finishing cycle if later called.
G71 Turning Cycle Working
N60 G71 U10 R10
N70 G71 P80 Q90 U3 W0 F0.25
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
When G71 turning cycle is run the whole operation will be done in following
sequence,
First-cut
1 – Tool will move in x-axis U (depth of cut) deep with programmed feed from
starting-point.
2 – Tool will travel with feed in z-axis (destination point in z-axis is given in P Q
blocks )
3 – Tool rapidly retracts R amount in both x-axis and z-axis (at 45 degrees).
4 – Tool rapidly travel in z-axis to start-point
Later-cuts
5 – Tool rapidly moves to last cut depth.
6 – Tool moves with feed in x-axis U deep (first-block U depth of cut).
7 – Tool with feed moves in z-axis (destination point given in P Q blocks).
8 – Tool rapidly retracts in x-axis and z-axis R amount (45 degrees).
9 – Tool rapidly moves to start-point only in z-axis.
This whole sequence of operation keep on going, until the destination point in x-
axis is met.
If finishing allowance is given tool will not make the exact diameter and length
given in P Q blocks but will leave that much allowance, This finishing allowance
can be later machined by calling G70 finishing cycle.

Fanuc G71 Example

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
Here is a cnc part-program which shows how G71 turning cycle can be used, this
is the program for the drawing given above
N50 G00 X106 Z5 M3 S800
N60 G71 U10 R10
N70 G71 P80 Q90 U3 W0 F0.25
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
In this program G71 turning cycle will keep repeating the contour given inside P
Q blocks shown below
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
These two cnc program blocks tell us that we want to remove material till X60
deep and in Z-75 in length.
The depth of cut is given in first-block U10 retract amount is also given R10.
Finishing allowance in x-axis is U3 but there is no finishing allowance given in z-
axis W0.
G70 Finishing Cycle
If you programmed G71 turning cycle with finishing allowances then that finish
allowances can be removed with G70 finishing cycle.
G70 finishing cycle repeats the whole contour the G71 way, but in just one-cut
removing the finishing allowances.
Why Use G70 Finishing Cycle
As material can be removed with G71 turning cycle, but if you want a different
cutting-feed and spindle speed for the last cut, then it is recommended that you
use G70 finishing cycle.
G70 finishing cycle use F and S values which are given inside P Q programmed
blocks. (G71 use F S values which are given inside G71 second block.)

Taper Threading with G32 a CNC

Programming Example
G32 is used for thread cutting, but with G32 we can just make a single threading
cut. This all mean that you yourself have to do all the work of threading tool
positioning.
For brief introduction of G32, G33 read CNC Fanuc G33 G32 Threading G Code.

Thread Cutting Possibilities with G32

Longitudinal thread.
Transverse thread.
Tapered thread.
Single and Multiple Start threads with a constant pitch.
Variable pitch and taper angles by Chaining thread cutting blocks.
For taper threading with G32 first take the tool to the start position.
Then make the thread cut with G32 and give the values of destination point in X,
Z axis along with thread pitch F.
The Z value in the G32 thread cutting has the same meaning as the Z value in
the G76 cycle or the G92 threading cycle. It represents the end position.
There are multiple possibilities of taper threading on cnc lathe machines.

 Taper Threading
Fanuc G84 Tapping Cycle
G84 tapping cycle performs tapping operation, tapping is performed by rotating
the spindle clockwise, when bottom of the hole has been reached, the spindle is
rotated in the reverse direction for retraction. This whole operation creates
threads.

Syntax
G84 X... Y... Z... R... P... F... K...
Parameter Description
X Hole position in x-axis.
Y Hole position in y-axis.
Z Depth, tapping from R-plane to Z-depth.
R Position of the R plane.
P Dwell time.
Number of cycle repetitions (if
K
required)__________________.
F Feedrate.
Once given in program G84 tapping cycle is repeated at every axis movement
until G80 is given in program to end tapping cycle.
Notes
Feedrate override is ignored during tapping.
Feed-hold does not stop the machine until the return operation is completed.

Working
Brief description of how G84 tapping cycle works,

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
G84 tapping cycle working
0- CW Spindle rotation command (M03) must be given in part-program.
1- Rapid traverse to X, Y position (pre-drill hole position).
2- Rapid traverse to R-plane.
3- Tapping operation is done till Z-depth (with tapping feed given with G84).
4-1- Dwell for time specified with P
4-2- Spindle is rotated CCW
5- Tap is Retracted with the specified feed.
At R-plane spindle is rotated CW.
If G99 is specified then tapping for this hole ends here,
6- if G98 is given in program then tap is moved to Initial-level.
G98 G99 Modes
After completing tapping the return height can be controlled by using G98 or
G99.
G98 Tap will return to the Initial level
G99 Tap will return to R-plane.
G98, G99 can be used multiple times during G84 tapping cycle.
Repeat Drilling
G84 tapping cycle can be repeated multiple times if K value is given.
For working example see G81 drilling cycle.

Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle

Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle
G71 turning cycle is used for rough-material removal from a cnc lathe
component. G71 turning cycle makes large diameter cutting easy. Cutting can be
done in simple straight line or a complex contour can also be machined very
easily.
Through G71 turning cycle parameters cnc machinists can control
Depth of cut.
Retract height.
Finishing allowance in x-axis and z-axis.
Cycle cutting-feed, spindle speed.
Programming
G71 U... R...
G71 P... Q... U... W... F... S...
Parameters
First block
Parameter Description
U Depth of cut.
R Retract height.
Second block
Parameter Description
P Contour start block number.
Q Contour end block number.
U Finishing allowance in x-axis.
W Finishing allowance in z-axis.
F Feedrate during G71 cycle.
S Spindle speed during G71 cycle.
G71 Turning Cycle Overview
• G71 turning cycle cuts the whole contour repeatedly which is given in P Q
blocks.

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
• Depth of every cut can be controlled by first-block U value.
• Second-block U W are the finishing allowances which can be given if you
want to make a finish cut with G70 finishing cycle.
• F is cutting feed and S is spindle speed (given in second-block) which are
used during G71 turning cycle.
Note – The F and S given inside P Q block will not be used during G71 turning
cycle, they are used with G70 finishing cycle if later called.

N60 G71 U10 R10
N70 G71 P80 Q90 U3 W0 F0.25
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
When G71 turning cycle is run the whole operation will be done in following
sequence,
First-cut
1 – Tool will move in x-axis U (depth of cut) deep with programmed feed from
starting-point.
2 – Tool will travel with feed in z-axis (destination point in z-axis is given in P Q
blocks )
3 – Tool rapidly retracts R amount in both x-axis and z-axis (at 45 degrees).
4 – Tool rapidly travel in z-axis to start-point
Later-cuts
5 – Tool rapidly moves to last cut depth.
6 – Tool moves with feed in x-axis U deep (first-block U depth of cut).
7 – Tool with feed moves in z-axis (destination point given in P Q blocks).
8 – Tool rapidly retracts in x-axis and z-axis R amount (45 degrees).
9 – Tool rapidly moves to start-point only in z-axis.
This whole sequence of operation keep on going, until the destination point in x-
axis is met.
If finishing allowance is given tool will not make the exact diameter and length
given in P Q blocks but will leave that much allowance, This finishing allowance
can be later machined by calling G70 finishing cycle.

Fanuc G71 Turning Cycle

Fanuc G71 Example

www.EngineeringBooksPDF.com
Here is a cnc part-program which shows how G71 turning cycle can be used, this
is the program for the drawing given above
N50 G00 X106 Z5 M3 S800
N60 G71 U10 R10
N70 G71 P80 Q90 U3 W0 F0.25
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
In this program G71 turning cycle will keep repeating the contour given inside P
Q blocks shown below
N80 G00 X60
N90 G01 Z-75
These two cnc program blocks tell us that we want to remove material till X60
deep and in Z-75 in length.
The depth of cut is given in first-block U10 retract amount is also given R10.
Finishing allowance in x-axis is U3 but there is no finishing allowance given in z-
axis W0.
G70 Finishing Cycle
If you programmed G71 turning cycle with finishing allowances then that finish
allowances can be removed with G70 finishing cycle.
G70 finishing cycle repeats the whole contour the G71 way, but in just one-cut
removing the finishing allowances.
Why Use G70 Finishing Cycle
As material can be removed with G71 turning cycle, but if you want a different
cutting-feed and spindle speed for the last cut, then it is recommended that you
use G70 finishing cycle.
G70 finishing cycle use F and S values which are given inside P Q programmed
blocks. (G71 use F S values which are given inside G71 second block.)
