LINEAR PATTERN (Cycle G221)
1
The TNC automatically moves the tool from its current position to
the starting point for the first machining operation.
Sequence:
n
Move to second set-up clearance (spindle axis)
n
Approach the starting point in the spindle axis.
n
Move to set-up clearance above the workpiece surface (spindle
axis).
2
From this position, the TNC executes the last defined fixed cycle.
3
The tool then approaches the starting point for the next machining
operation in the positive reference axis direction at set-up
clearance (or 2nd set-up clearance).
4
This process (1 to 3) is repeated until all machining operations on
the first line have been executed. The tool is located above the last
point on the first line.
5
The tool subsequently moves to the last point on the second line
where it carries out the machining operation.
6
From this position, the tool approaches the starting point for the
next machining operation in the negative reference axis direction.
7
This process (6) is repeated until all machining operations in the
second line have been executed.
8
The tool then moves to the starting point of the next line.
9
All subsequent lines are processed in a reciprocating movement.

Before programming, note the following:
Cycle G221 is DEF active, which means that Cycle G221
automatically calls the last defined fixed cycle.
If you combine Cycle G221 with one of the fixed cycles
G200 to G209, G212 to G215 and G262 to G267, the set-
up clearance, workpiece surface and 2nd set-up clearance
that you defined in Cycle G221 will be effective for the
selected fixed cycle.
