To perform drilling
operations, a drilling cycle G81 is used.
G84 X... Y... Z...
R... F... K...
X |
Coordinate
X of the hole center. |
Y |
Coordinate
Y of the hole center. |
Z |
Drilling depth (from R-plane to Z position). |
R |
R
plane position. |
F |
Feedrate. |
K |
Number of
drilling cycles (if more than one cycle is required). |
How G81 Drilling Cycle
works.
1 - Fast movement to X,Y coordinates of the hole center. 2
- Fast movement to R plane. 3 - Drilling operation (Z-depth). 4 -
Fast movement to R plane or Initial level.
G98 and G99 modes.
G98 - Drill will go to
the initial level. G99 - Drill will go to R plane.
Example of using G81 in an CNC program (G-code).
% O0001 (G81
example) (Program number (O0001) and Program name (G81
example) G00 Z0.5 (Safe Z) G00 X16 Y23 (go
to X,Y coordinates of the hole center) G81 X16 Y23 Z-12 R5.2 F50 (Z-drilling
depth) G00 Z0.5 (Safe Z) G00 X0 Y0 (go to machine Zero) M30 (End) %
