Group of cycles

Soft key

Page

Cycles for pecking, reaming, boring,
counterboring, tapping and thread
milling

page 303

Cycles for milling pockets, studs and
slots

page 353

Cycles for producing point patterns,
such as circular or linear hole patterns

page 390

SL (Subcontour List) cycles which allow
the contour-parallel machining of
relatively complex contours consisting
of several overlapping subcontours,
cylinder surface interpolation

page 397

Cycles for face milling of flat or twisted
surfaces

page 441

Coordinate transformation cycles which
enable datum shift, rotation, mirror
image, enlarging and reducing for
various contours

Special cycles such as dwell time,
program call, oriented spindle stop and
tolerance

If you use indirect parameter assignments in fixed cycles
with numbers greater than 200 (e.g. Q210 = Q1), any
change in the assigned parameter (e.g. Q1) will have no
effect after the cycle definition. Define the cycle
parameter (e.g. Q210) directly in such cases.

If you define a feed-rate parameter for fixed cycles greater
than 200, then instead of entering a numerical value you
can use soft keys to assign the feed rate defined in the
TOOL CALL

block (FAUTO soft key), or rapid traverse (FMAX

soft key).

If you want to delete a block that is part of a cycle, the TNC
asks you whether you want to delete the whole cycle.
