Program layout
NC programs should be arranged consistently in a similar manner. This
makes it easier to find your place, accelerates programming and
reduces errors.
Recommended program layout for simple, conventional contour
machining
1
Call tool, define tool axis
2
Retract the tool
3
Preposition the tool in the working plane near the contour starting
point
4
In the tool axis, position the tool above the workpiece, or
preposition immediately to workpiece depth. If required, switch on
the spindle/coolant
5
Move to the contour
6
Machine the contour
7
Leave the contour
8
Retract the tool, end the program

Contour programming: See "Tool movements" on page 210
Recommended program layout for simple cycle programs
1
Call tool, define tool axis
2
Retract the tool
3
Define the fixed cycle
4
Move to the machining position
5
Call the cycle, switch on the spindle/coolant
6
Retract the tool, end the program
