This CNC program example shows how both G72.1 and G72.2 figure copy functions can call one-another in one part program, read Programming Notes below carefully.


Programming

Fanuc G72.1 Rotational Copy

Using G72.1 Rotational Copy G-code a figure specified by a subprogram can be repeatedly produced with Rotational movement.
Read G72.1 definition with program example Fanuc G72.1 Rotational Copy (Figure Copy Function CNC Mill)

Fanuc G72.2 Linear Copy

Using G72.2 Linear Copy G-code a figure specified by a subprogram can be repeatedly produced with Linear movement.

Fanuc G81 Drilling Cycle

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

Programming Notes

Specifying two or more commands to copy a figure
  1. G72.1 cannot be specified more than once in a subprogram for making a rotational copy (If this is attempted, alarm PS0900 will occur).
  2. G72.2 cannot be specified more than once in a subprogram for making a linear copy (If this is attempted, alarm PS0901 will occur).
  3. 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.

Fanuc G81 Drilling Cycle

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

  • Syntax
  • Usage
  • Working
  • G98 G99 Modes
    • Example
  • Repeat Drilling
  • Working Examples
  • G98 G99 Example
  • Repeat Drilling Example

Syntax

G81 X... Y... Z... R... K... F...
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.
K Number of cycle repetitions (if 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.

Example

N30 G81 X10 Y30 Z-17 R2 F75
                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.

Chamfer and Radius Program Example with G01

CNC programming example code to demonstrate, how to program a Chamfer and Radius (Corner Rounding) with G01 G-code.
Easy to program and understand that even a beginner level CNC machinist can understand and program such sample codes.
Mostly works on Fanuc and similar CNC controls.
No extra G-code or technique is required. Just have to put a “C” for chamfer and an “R” for Radius in a cnc program block with G01 G-code. Chamfer is at 45° (45 degrees).
For a brief description of how Chamfer and Corner Radius are programmed with G01 G code read following cnc programming article Chamfer and Radius Programming with G01 G code.

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.





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.
