G-Code

Description

Label

G80

Use to cancel drill, tap, and bore canned cycles (G81 to G89).

Drilling Off

 

 

 

G81

Basic drilling cycle, generally used for center drilling or hole drilling

Basic Drill Cycle

 

that does not require a pecking motion.

 

 

 

 

G82

counter bore drill cycle, generally used for counter boring.

counter bore Drill Cycle

 

 

 

G83

Peck drilling cycle, generally used for peck drilling relatively

Peck Drill Cycle

 

shallow holes.

 

 

 

 

G84

Tapping canned cycle, used for tapping holes.

Tapping Cycle

 

 

 

G85

Boring cycle, generally used to make a pass in each direction on

Boring Bidirectional Cycle

 

a bore, or to tap with a self-reversing tapping head.

 

 

 

 

G86

Boring cycle that allows the X-axis to back off the bore surface

Boring Unidirectional Cycle

 

after the spindle has stopped and oriented itself.

 

 

 

 

G87

Chip-breaker peck-drilling cycle, generally used to peck-drill

Chip Break Cycle

 

medium to deep holes.

 

 

 

 

G89

Boring cycle, generally used to program a pass in each direction

Flat Bottom Boring Cycle

 

with a dwell at the bottom.

 

 

 

 

G90

Sets 3500i to Absolute Mode.

Absolute

 

 

 

G91

Sets 3500i to Incremental Mode.

Incremental

 

 

 

G92

Shifts the location of Absolute Zero to a preset location. The

Zero Set

 

preset location, measured from Machine Home, is specified in the

 

 

G92 command.

 

 

 

 

G100

G100 programmed with axis (G100 X) activates “mirror image”

Mirroring

 

(ON) for that axis. Mirror image reverses the sign (+/-) of

 

 

subsequent numbers. More than one axis can be mirrored at once

 

 

(G100 XY). To cancel mirror image, program G100 on a block by

 

 

itself.

 

 

 

 

G120

Used to define a window in relation to the X and Y machine home

block form

 

and the Z part zero.

 

 

 

 

G133

Used to remove bottom stock left by a previously programmed

Bottom Finish

 

pocket cycle.

 

 

 

 

G134

Used to remove side stock left by a previously programmed

Side Finish

 

pocket cycle.

 

 

 

 

G162

This cycle allows islands in irregular pockets.
