17 Canned Cycles for Drilling

B. Back Boring Cycle
If the machine is provided with the facility of spindle orientation (parameter ORIENT1=1), the control will act in conformity with case "B".
The variables of cycle are
G17 G87 Xp__ Yp__ I__ J__ Zp__ R__ F__ L__
G18 G87 Zp__ Xp__ K__ I__ Yp__ R__ F__ L__
G19 G87 Yp__ Zp__ J__ K__ Xp__ R__ F__ L__ The spindle must be given rotation M3 when the cycle is started. The operations of cycle are
1.
2.– spindle orientation
– tool receded in the selected plane with values I, J, K (rapid traverse)
3.
4.– tool receded in the selected plane opposite to the values specified at I, J or K
(rapid traverse)
–spindle
5.boring as far as the point Z, with feed F
6.– spindle orientation (M19)
–tool receded in the selected plane with values I, J, K (rapid traverse)
7.-
8.-
9.
10.– tool receded in the selected plane opposite to the values specified at I, J or K
(rapid traverse)
– spindle
Following from the nature of the cycle, point R is located, unlike in the previous instances, lower than point Z. This must be taken into account in programming the boring axis and addresses R.
