G-Codes

G0- Rapid
G00- (I hope you already know this one!)
A new feature is also available. G0Z0,I.1 . This is in-position
check. This might be used to save time not needing accuracy during
rapid motion. If you use 'G0 Z' without ',I' then rapid is back
to normal.

G1- Linear interpolation

G01- (I hope you already know this one too!)

G2- Circular interpolation clockwise direction.

G02- When viewing the #1 gang tools, X1 and Z1 G2X.5W.01R.01
You can also use I J K giving the center of the arc from the
position
you start at before the G2. I=X J=Y K=Z G2X.5W.01K.01I0
I,J,K is used when more than a 90 deg arc is needed, usually
milling
or turning a ball type part.

Circle Example...
When milling with or without cutter comp(G41/G42), the feed rate
given is not true. To get a proper feed rate you have to
calculate
using the radius desired and the tool radius. Cutting outside
corners are different then inside pockets. Use this formula...

Outside cutting:
DesiredFeed=10 IPM CutRadius=.25 ToolRadius=.125
Feed=DesiredFeed * ((CutRadius+ToolRadius)/CutRadius)
Feed= 10 * ( .375 / .25)
Feed=10 * 1.5
Feed=15

G18

Inside pocket cutting:

DesiredFeed=10 IPM CutRadius=.25 ToolRadius=.125
Feed=DesiredFeed * ((CutRadius-ToolRadius)/CutRadius)
Feed= 10 * ( .125 / .25)
 Feed=10 * .5
Feed=5

Also Helical Interpolation: Same as Circular interpolation

but while 2 axis are circular interpolating, another axis
moves linear. This is mainly used for thread milling, having
to arc Z-Y around the thread in circles and move X down in the
part.

Z = Z position to linear or if using P then set Z to one pitch.
I = Center of hole from X in radial value.
J = Center of hole from Y in radial value.
P = Number of pitches or threads. Whatever Z is times P
F = Feed rate to cut.

G3- Circular interpolation counter-clockwise direction.

G03- When viewing the #1 gang tools, X1 and Z1 -See G2
G4- Dwell
G04- G4 can be used 3 different ways...

G4 U1. (must have . or 1 = .0001)

G4 X1.
G4 P1000 (all three dwells = 1. second)

G9- Exact stop mode

G09- G9 will make the axis stop after the program line. Used when no
radius is allowed on an outside or inside corner.
G1 G9 Z1. F.002

G10- Offset input from RS232C or program

The way Mitsubishi worked this one is much better than Fanuc. If you
choose I/O OUTPUT function and download "OFFSET" this
will send a bunch of G10 and G11 commands to a file. This is all the
offsets in a special code. To send it back to the machine later just
pick I/O "tool data" and INPUT, and the offsets are loaded into the
machine from the RS232, no need to run a program.

G10 L11 P1 X.001 Z.005 R.002

(P=offset number)

You can also use G10 to set parameters. Please see the Mitsubishi
manual for more details.

G12.1- Converts C axis degrees and X axis movement to work like

a milling machine. Program X-Y axis and the control converts all
the
commands to degrees automatically. X and Y are programmed in radius
values and zero is at the center of the part, like a milling
machine.
Tool nose rad comp is also needed to use G12.1 correctly. Thinking
about the direction for G2/G3 and G41/G42 is backwards! You have to
imagine you are back behind the guide bushing looking to the
cutter.
If you can't do this, then just do everything opposite!

There are some new options while calling G12.1. We used to have to
change parameters to use G12.1 #1125 Mill_AX and #1126 MillC ,
now
we can set these while calling G12.1 . See also G16 below.

G12.1 (no arguments uses C commands same as G12.1 D1 E=C)

G12.1 D0 E=C

D0 -You can use "C" or "Y" as the virtual axis while in G12.1
The manual suggests using "D1" to use "C" but I don't
agree.
If in G17 X-Y plane, then I suggest you use "D0" to use Y".
Your choice, it makes no difference which you use! If D is
not on the G12.1 line then "C" is default.
Always have "D" first on the G12.1 line!
 E=C -This will set the axis number of the system to use as the
polar axis. This depends if you are using the gang plate in
$1 or the U121B option in $2 or $3. Setting E=C will set
the
proper axis automatically. If you don't use E=C on the line
then
$1 C axis is default. For safety, always use E=C

G16- Plane select Y-Z cylindrical machining. To use this plane you need
the
option of G12.1 milling interpolation. G16 is used to convert polar
C axis degrees to linear Y when machining "J" slots or cylindrical
cams. Most of these part prints are dimensioned with linear and
radial
values, not degrees. Also the prints usually show the part cut and
spread flat. Radii are hard to program and adjust without G16 and
tool
nose radius comp. G41-G42. Programming would be linear "Z Y".
The polar "C" axis is converted to a linear "Y" axis. Another use of
G16
is to chamfer a cross hole equaly all the way around the hole.

G16C.15
C= Position of X axis to calculate from if the actual cutting
position is different. This is in radial value. C.15 = X.3

G17- Plane select X-Y -When viewing this plane from the guide bushing you
need to be looking from the spindle to the GB and this is difficult.
So
swap your G2/G3 and G41/G42.

G18- Plane select X-Z normally used. G18 is when power on. View looking
at
The GB

G19- Plane select Y-Z. View looking down from milling tools at the GB.

G28- Automatic reference return. Usually use the incremental command for
each axis. "G28 U0 W0". You probably won't use G28

G32- Threading- G32 locks the feed-rate override at 100% and turns off
the single block mode. Then G32 looks to find an exact spot on the
spindle to start feeding. G32 is canceled by a G00 command. It's
uses are for multiple angle threads (bone screws, worm gears) or
we commonly use G32 when we tap a part with the main spindle, or the
PO spindle. G32 won't work on the secondary spindles because there
is no encoder on S3 or S4.

If you are cutting a special OD thread always start G32 on a Z move.

If you start G32 on an X move, the spindle zero will pick up in a
different Z position each time. Position "X" first then "G32 Z"

G32 can also adjust the spindle zero for double start threads.
G32 Q180. =180 deg from spindle zero.

G34-Variable lead threading. This command is the same as G32 but
has the "K" value for the amount of pitch change per revolution. See
G32-

G34 X Z F.03 K.05

X= Position to go to in X
Z= Position to go to in Z
F= Feed rate in IPR
K.05= Amount of change in pitch per revolution. Can be growing pitch
if plus value or reducing pitch if minus value. First rev will
be F.03
2nd rev is (.03+.05) 3rd rev is (.08+.05) and so on.

G35-Arc threading (cw) Used to cut a radus while threading.

G35 X Z R F (Q) (IJK)

G32 X Z F

G36-Arc threading (ccw)

see above

G40- Tool nose radius compensation CANCEL. Turns off G41 or G42

G41- Tool nose radius compensation LEFT. Usually used when front
turning on Cincom machines in a Z positive direction. There are 8
sections of the radius to be used.

1= Boring
3= Back turning
4= Front turn (see manual for details)
8= Profile
0= Endmill

G42- Tool nose radius compensation RIGHT. Not used as often. G42
could be used when traveling in a Z negative direction. See G41

G43- Feed per revolution in $2 on S1. IPR and CSF is read off of the main
spindle. This is used when in G620 and programming from $2 but
feeding
IPR to S1. The default is G43 so feeding in $1 and $2 is IPR off the
main spindle.

G44- Feed per revolution in $2 on S2. IPR and CSF is read off of the sub
spindle. Used to single point thread with the pick-off spindle, tap,
or any IPR feeding needed to be done from the S2 spindle. This code
is
unique to each side $1 and $2. Probably you will only use G44 in $2
because you normally don't need to feed from S2 on the front side
program unless using G600 and TxxxxK2.

G50- Coordinate system setting. Used to either set the position of an

axis
absolutely to a known value, or to move the position of an axis
incrementally over a specified amount. The axis doesn't move but the
position screen changes. Also spindle speed clamp.

G50 Z0 makes current position of Z axis = 0 but no movement of Z

L programs only use one "G50Z" in each program at the
beginning to establish part zero.

G50Z.401 when a left hand cutoff is used. .5-.094-.005

G50 W-.59 shifts the coordinate system over for temporary use then
it
would be shifted back by G50 W.59 after tool is
finished.

G50 S4000 Q300 max RPM=4000 and min = 300

G53-Rapid to Machine position.

Sometimes used after running multiple parts per chucking.
G53Z-[#818*#819] #818= mach len #819= parts per chucking

G53 Z-1.5(Rapid Z to machine position -1.5 not program position)

G53 Z3. ,F80.

The ",F" is a new feature that enables a feed rate command for G53.
If used the ",F" is a one shot feed rate cammand, not changing
modal "F".

G65- Calling a macro program. Same as M98 but we pass variables to a

macro
sub-program. You would have to learn macro's to make macro programs
but I have a macro for Peck Drilling you might want to use. Instead
of the G83 option.

Example for my peck drilling macro...

G76- Canned threading cycle

G76 P010060 Q.002 R.0005 (first G76 sets parameters for

threading)
G76 X Z P Q F R (cuts the thread)

The first G76 isn't needed but is recommended.

- G76 P Q R

P010060 sets 3 things

- first 2 digits is the amount of finish passes - 01

- second 2 digits is % of the lead or pullout exiting the thread-

00
00 = almost no angle at pullout and 99 = 9.9 leads away start out

- third 2 digits are the angle of infeed - 60

0,29,30,55,60,80 are usable (0-90 is ok)
The actual cutting infeed =(value/2)-.5 so a value of 60 = 29.5
infeed

Q.005 sets the minimum cut amount during threading

R.0005 sets the cut amount of the last pass

The second G76 cuts the thread.

-G76 X.1876 Z.3 P.0302 Q.01 F.05 (R-.002) FOR 1/4-20

X.1876 =Minor Dia. of thread

Z.3 or (W) =The ending Z of the thread

 P.0302 =Height of thread in radius (Maj-Min)/2

Q.01 =Amount of the first cut. All the rest of the cuts are
calculated.

F.05 =Feed-rate 20 TPI 1/20=.05

R = R is optional for tapered threading. R is the amount of

difference in X from start to finish in Z. When cutting threads
moving Z and X in a positive direction R is a negative value.

G80-Cancel G8? series codes. If only using G83 we don't need G80

G83-Peck drilling cycle. There are (2) parameters related to G83.

Control Param #8125 "G83 Rapid" if ON then the pecks do NOT come out
of
the hole, they only back up the amount of Setup1 Param "G83 Retract"
to break the chip and then start feeding again.

Setup1 Param "G83 Retract .02" is the amount to rapid back into the
hole from the last peck for clearance.

I suggest...
Setup1 Param "G83 Retract"=.02
Control Param #8125 "G83 Rapid"=OFF

Example-
G0 Z-.05 T22
G83 Z1. F.001 R.03 Q.04 P0

Z1. =Z position of the bottom of the hole

F.001 =Feed in IPR or IPM

R.03 =Rapid from current Z position the R amount incrementally.

If starting at Z-.05 and R=.03 then the Z axis rapidly
positions to "Z-.02" and after every peck Z retracts to
the same position "Z-.02". If you use "R-.03" it is the same
as "R.03". Leave R out to start from current Z position.

Q.04 =Peck amount

P0 =Dwell amount at the bottom of the hole. You can just leave
P off the command line if you want

K4 =If face off center drilling use K for the amount of holes
Just leave K off the command if only one.

H90. =If you have C axis option and using K

,F30= This was added! Now you can change the rapid moves to a feed
if desired.

G814-Same as G114.1 but you don't need all the codes on the
command line. You can use the R command for phase shifting.
Citizen added this macro just to make it easier to use spindle
sync. See G114.1 and G113. You may save time by not using G814.
G814 even with no 'R' argument will internaly use 'R0' and this
will force a phase shift for spindle sync, needing also to use M77.
To save time use G114.1 without the R value.

G814 R10. same as G114.1 H1 D-2 R10.

G814 (no R) same as G114.1 H1 D-2 R0

G114.2-Polygon machining command. There are many unique ways to use

polygon machining. Not just for hex or square shapes. Side slots,
Phillips screw driver shapes and whatever else can benefit from the

G114.2 H3 D1 E3 L6 (R15.)

H3 = Master spindle or S3(gang live tool) S4 U121B option

D1= Slave spindle. Could be 1,-1, 2, -1 - is for direction.
E3 = Rotation rate. Number of teeth of the cutter.
L6= Number of flats to be cut on the part.
R15. = Phase shifting amount in degrees.(only on 1:1 ratio
spindles)

G114.3-(option) Gear hobbing command. With a special holder this command

will
time the cutter(S3) and spindle(S1C1) to constantly hold position
so all we do is feed across the part as if we were turning and a
gear shape is cut. A "C" axis is also needed! Use G113 to cancel.

G114.3 H3 D-9 E1 L18 (P0) (Q1.)

H3 = Master spindle or S3(gang live tool)

D-9= Slave spindle or 9= Caxis -9 = reverse
E1 = Rotation rate. Always set to one. Not sure exactly why!
L18= Number of gear teeth to be on the part.
P0 = Helix angle -89.000 to 89.000 for helical gears. Leave off
or set to P0 for spur(straight) gears.
Q1.= Gear module. For helical gears only.

G115- Start point queuing (Type 1)

or Queuing during an axis movement (Type 1)

The programming system that G115 is in waits until the

other system reaches a specified axis position then continues.
See G116 below.
 Example... getting P.O. spindle over the part while still turning.

is
sent to the other system to continue.

G149-End position queuing during an axis movement. Similar to G116 except

G149 is smart and will calculate how long it will take to move to
the desired position and finish moving at the queuing point. G149 is
used in "M32 X.1" and will have Z2 and the catcher basket under the
part when X=.1 . Z2 won't start coming in at X.1 but will start
sooner to be there when X gets to .1 . You also need to add special
line lables to mark the lines to end at. "BNxxx"

G156- Mirroring two axis. Used automatically in G821 to lock Y1 to X2 so
the drills can't hit the turning tools while using T2?00 stations.
You won't normally use G156. If you don't command the other axis,
it
just follows.

G156 Y1=X2 ON
G156 Y1 OFF

G156- Superimpose one axis onto another. G811/G650/G620 uses G156 to make
the Z2 axis follow Z1. You normally won't need G156. If you command
the other axis, it follows but also move simultaniously.
See also -G620/G650

G156 Z2=Z1 turns on Also queue $1 and $2 before G156

G156 Z2 turns back off

G160- Axis torque sensing command. (normally not used) This is used
internally by
Citizen for the auto collet adjusting and auto guide bushing
adjustment.
Possible uses could be to check the Z2 torque while positioning
over the
part when picking off. If the turning tool has failed and the size
is big,
the collet could jam on to the part! G160 will feed to the desired
position at the commanded feed but if the torque is reached the
axis will
stop short of the commanded position. We can then use macro to
determine
where it stopped. G160 is a one shot code and after G160 is done or
if the
torque was met, then 100% of torque is set back to the commanded
axis. I
tested and I used G160 with a shank of a tool and checked the
turned size
of a part and had .0003" repeating! Maybe this is not good for all
jobs
but could be used as part of an auto offset macro!
G160 will not work on a superimposed axis. So if you have a CAV, A7
is
superimposed on Z1 and G160 can not be used on Z1. Instead just use
Z2
for the motion if needed.(no problem)

G173-Inclined rotation setting. Used with helical interpolation

to perform angled milling or angled thread milling. It will also
let you program angle peck drilling easier. While in G173 mode, all
axis are radius designation programming, like a milling machine.
 After the G173 command the axis position remains the same position
as it was before the command but X becomes radial. Keep this in mind
while programming.

Offsetting: The Offset has to be commanded before G173 and this

makes
it more difficult to send a drill in .01 as you need to offset both
axis to the angle to get the movment you desire. Using macro, we
have
a way to utilize the offset data, and we G50 for the offset, see
below

G173 Y0 Z0 D5. or G173 X0 Z.5 D5.

G173 no arguments cancels the G173 command.

Y0 = Center of rotation position of Y

Z0 = Center of rotation position of Z
X0 = Center of rotation position of X
D5.= Angle of rotation.

Remember to use G173 again with no arguments to cancel.

G600's-The G600's commands are Citizen's way of makeing a very complex

multi
axis machine, very easy to program. These G600's commands are
called
mode selections. G600,G610,G620,G630,G650,G660. All of these
commands
select each axis in each of the three systems. G620,G650 enable
superimposition. This is the ability of one axis to follow another
axis
but still be fully programmable. For example we can peck drill and
turn
simultaniously at different feed rates. Because all the G600's
mode are
working with all the axis, all systems are queued with each other
by
commanding the code in all systems for the mode change. There are
also
different arguments possible for each command that can change the
axis
 movements as desired. See each code and it's arguments below...

G600- Cancel all G6xx commands. Also G600 is the default mode before the
program starts and after the G999 command at the end of the
program.
G600 will queue with both lines $1-$2 then X1-Z1-Y1-C1 are now
controlled from $1,and X2-Z2-C2 is controlled from $2.

Also when in MDI, Mode G600 is in affect.

$1 $2
G600 G600

G600 command options...

$1 G600 (no arguments are allowed in $1)

$2 G600 (No arguments means Z2 moves away to Z2 home position)

G600W0 (W0 means leave Z2 at the current position)

G610- Machining mode change to use the three drill stations T21-T23 in
the
$1 programming line. G610 will queue with lines $1-$2. All the
programming
is done in $1 and $2 must wait on G600. This replaces the L51620's
G821
command because G610 works deeply with the first T2x00 call to move
Z2 in while
changing the mode. This saves 1 second per use! X2-Z1-C1 are now
used in $1.
Because M140 is not used, you can use 'T2200 S-1.' on the first
T2x00 to change
the position of Z2 when brining in the drills.

Example...

$1 $2

G610 G610($1 takes control of

G620- Machining mode change to superimpose Z2 onto Z1 . G620 will queue
with lines $1-$2 then make Z2 follow Z1 but Z2 can also be
programmed
independently. Example if we are drilling while turning.

Note- Any shift, "G50W-.125", on Z1 must be canceled, "G50W.125",

before
G620 or G620 won't find the face of the part!

G600 G600
G50Z0(safety resets Z2 position)

G630- Front Back paralle machining mode. Basicly G630 is the same as
G600.
But G630 will start moving X2Z2 before X1Y1 are finished. During
the
next T-code in system1 X2Z2 move saving time. This saves about .2
seconds from using G600! G630 will queue with both lines $1-$2 then
X1-Z1-Y1-C1 are now controlled from $1,and X2-Z2-C2 are controlled
from $2. You can not command Z in $2 until after T3x00.

G650- Machining mode change to superimpose Z2 on to Z1. G650 will queue

with both lines $1-$2 then make Z2 follow Z1 but Z2 can also be
programmed independently. Example -when we pick up a part and
chamfer
it while we have the back spindle collet closed on the part. Also
if we are using Z2 as a work support.

Note- Any shift, "G50W-.125", on Z1 must be canceled, "G50W.125",

G999- Finish last part. Finishes the part in the P.O. spindle if you are
running in SINGLE CYCLE MODE. While the machine is running usually
the work on the P.O. spindle is completed while the front of the
part
is also working. When the counter is full or the bar stock is empty
or
if we are in ONE CYCLE MODE then we can finish the part by using
G999
and N999 in our program. If in regular CONTINUOUS CYCLE MODE then
the
CNC statements between G999 and N999 are skipped but if in ONE
CYCLE
MODE or the counter is full or there are other operator alarms then
 the CNC statements between G999 and N999 are read and performed.
G999
has to be in all programming lines $1 $2. If using G999 and at some
time you want to turn off this function then turn off soft key in
auto
mode "Lastprt" and the codes between G999 and N999 are always
skipped no mater what MODE your in. Mode G700 is in affect at the

T01 offset call
T0 cancel offset

T200 -This rapids above the bar stock (longest tool) then
positions tool
station 2 above the stock waiting for the next command.

Special options...

Main Gang T100-T1300 T0202 Q1 H X Z Y K2 E A R1 M1

T0202 X.2 Z.3 -This first rapids above the bar stock then goes to
a
position of X.2 and Z.3 and turns on offset #2
while
indexing to T200.

T0202 X.2 Z.3Y0 Q1 -Q1 tells the machine to go straight to position

X.2 and Z.3 while indexing. X doesn't go up
first.
This possibly saves time but is DANGEROUS.
BE CAREFUL!
 T0200 H.5 -H.5 Rapids the current tool to stock size +.5
then
indexes to the new tool. Used to alter the
position point
for the one time index.

T0700 K2 -After the Tool is called, the Z2 axis is the

commanded
Z axis. Also the C2 axis is called up.
X1,Y1,Z2,C2 are
commanded from $1. The next T__00 call changes it
back.

T0700 E90. -While the Tool is called, the C1 axis is

positioned at
the same time to the E value.

T1200R1 -R1 is used to call the 2nd tool of a dbl holder

on the
GSE3010 block. R1 is the outside tool.

T1200R1 A1 -A1 A5 will allow the tool hidden zero data to be

chosen
when using G660 both ends drilling. A1 will use
the front
tool zero data and the back tool will be off. A5
will use
the back drill zero data and the front drill will
be off.
If no A is used or A0 then the zero data from
front and back
are split to make both off a little.

T400 M1 -If M1 is used it will not use the highest tool

set clearance.
This might be used to save cycle time but be
careful!

Main Gang Back side T5100-T5400 T5100 Q1 Q3 W X Y Z E R1

After T5x00 the axis programmed are X1-Y1-Z2-C2

T5200 X.2 Q1 -Q1 will keep Z2 axis where it is

for the tool change. If ommitted Z2 moves back
5mm or .1968"
first, then indexes the tool.

T5200 X.2 Q3 -Q3 will force Z2 axis to go home for the tool
change.
If ommitted Z2 moves back 5mm or .1968" first,
then indexes
the tool.
 T5200R1 -R1 is used to call the 2nd tool of a dbl holder
on the
GSE3010 block. R1 is the outside tool.

T5200 W-.2 -If W is on the command then Z2 moves to W amount

from where
it was then calls the next tool. If no W then it
moves back
5mm or .1968"

T5100 Z.5 -If Z is on the command then Z2 moves to Z2

machine pos not
the part position. If no Z then it moves back
5mm or .1968"

T5200 X.5 -Use X to change the position of the X axis while

indexing.

T5200 E90. -While the Tool is called, the C2 axis is

positioned at
the same time to the E value.

Front ID tools T2200 Q1 W X Z E S

T2323 * -Don't put offset or Z pos on the T2?00 line use

T2300

T2300 Z-.05 Q1 -If in G620, Q1 will keep Z2 axis where it is

for the tool change. If ommitted Z2 moves back
first.

T2300 W-.1 -If in G620 mode and W is NOT on the line Z2 goes
to home position first then indexes and comes
back
in to work. If W is on the line, Z2 goes to W
amount incrementaly.

T2100 S-1. -If in G610 mode and you have a shifted tool (the
tool
is set diff. from normal tool set zero) it may
hit when
using G610 and T2100 high speed positioning
function.
Use the S argument to change the position of Z2
when calling
up this tool only used on the first T2x00 tool
after G610.

T2100 X.5 -Use X to change the position of the X axis while

indexing.

Back ID tools T3200 Q1 Q3 Z W X E

T3200 X.2 Q1 -Q1 will keep Z2 axis where it is

 for the tool change. If ommitted Z2 moves back
13mm or .5118"
first, then indexes the tool.

T3100 Q3 -Q3 will force Z2 axis to go home for the tool

change.
If ommitted Z2 moves back 13mm or .5118" first,
then indexes
the tool.

T3200 W3. -If W is on the line, Z2 goes to W amount

incrementaly. Then
calls the tool.

T3200 Z.3 -If Z is on the command then Z2 moves to Z2

machine pos not
the part position. If no Z then it moves back
13mm or .5118"

T3200 X.5 -Use X to change the position of the X axis while

indexing.
