1 General
1.1 Program Introduction of Machining
1.1.1 The Format of Instruction Programming
An NC program consists of a sequence of NC blocks, each instruction constituted
by a number of commands. Each command includes two partscommand word
and command parameter. Function is identified by command keyword, such as the
effect of command word G in the G01 is preparatory function, the effect of
command word M in the M03 is miscellaneous function.
As it is shown in Figure 1-1.

Figure 1-1 Structure of an NC Program

Note:
1Many blocks can be written on the same line, separated by the ;.
2The block must be written on the same line, can not be written on
different line.

1.1.2 Block skip and comments

1) block skip
The blocks can be executed optionally if there is a skip symbol \ before them. If
block skip is effective, the blocks which have a skip symbol \ before them are not
executed, else executed.
Warning, the skip symbol is \, instead of /, the latter for the division operator.
The blocks which need skip should be on one line, when block skip is effective,
the blocks on the same line which have a skip symbol before them are skipped and
not executed.

Example:
G0 X0 Y0 Z0
\G00 X20 Y30G01 Z50 F300
M30
When block skip is effective, all the code on the second line is not executed.

2) comment
All information after the is regarded as comments which are ignored when the
program is translated.
Comments can be done on whole line, or partly on the middle. It should be done
on the tail when comment partly.

Example:
M03 S1000;
Rapid positioning (comment whole line)
G90 G00 X100 Y200;
G17 G02 X150 I25 F300;
circular interpolationcomment partly on the tail

1.1.3 Structure of an NC Program and execution

An NC program consists of main program and subprogram. It must have a main
program, but unnecessary to subprogram. Main program should be placed at the
beginning of the program file and end by M30 or M99. Subprogram can be ended
by M99 only, and its name should be digital only, and can not have the extension.

The storage location of subprogram can be divided into two situations:

1) Subprogram and main program can exist in the same file, this time,
subprogram must appear after the main program. The sequence between
subprograms has non-requirements;
2) Subprogram can also be stored as a separate file, and the file name is the
subprogram name.
Program executes as shown in Figure 1-3

Figure 1-3 program execution

1.2 G Code
1.2.1 Modal G Code
G codes are divided into the following two types according to their validity:
1) One-shot G code: The G code is effective only in the block in which it is
specified.
2) Modal G codes: This G codes are stored after the execution by the CNC
system. The G code is effective until another G code of the same group is
specified.

Example:
G53 X0 Y0 Z0 G53 is One-shot G code, and needs to be specified each time
G01 X-200 F300
Y-100
G01 is Modal G code, and it is stored after the execution,
and needs to be specified no longer.
Z-250
M30

1.2.2 G-code group

G codes are divided into several groups according to their function, G codes in 00
group are one-shot G code, while the other groups are modal G code. Multiple G
codes can be specified in the same block if each G code belongs to a different
group. If multiple G codes that belong to the same group are specified in the same
block, only the last G code specified is effective.
The following table is the group of G code in HNC-08M system.
The system supports the G codes that already listed on the following table, else
does not support them yet, please do not use.

1.2.3

Interpolation Commands and State Commands

G codes can also be divided into interpolation commands and state commands
according to their function.

1) Interpolation Command
The so-called interpolation command is the command to control the movement of
axis, such as the G00, G01.
Coordinate commands which control the motor position are output after
Interpolation command is executed.
It divides into the movement of the tool and the movement of the workpiece
according to different machine, the movement of tool is assumed for Interpolation
command in this manual.

2) State Command
The state command is that can affect the state of executing interpolation
command .It is stored by the system only. It outputs no coordinates command and
does not control the movement of axis, but will affect the execution and results of
the subsequent interpolation command.
For example: G90 and G91 are state command. The following interpolation
commands control the movement of axis by absolute value mode after G90 ,
similarly the following interpolation commands control the movement of axis by
increment value mode. after G91

2 Interpolation Command
2.1 Basic Instructions
2.1.1

Rapid positioning (G00)

Description
The command G00 moves a tool to the position in the workpiece system specified
with an absolute or an incremental command at a rapid traverse rate.
G00 is a straight line positioning methods, when executing G00, the system adjusts
the speed of each axis automatically to make sure that a tool moves a straight line
from the start point to the end point.

Figure 2-1 G00 Rapid positioning

The rapid traverse rate of G00 can not be specified in the address F, but can be
overrided based on the parameter setting by the switch of rapid traverse
magnification.
P2021: the acceleration of the linear axis G00.
P2022: the acceleration of the rotation axis G00.
P2025: the speed of linear axis G00.
P2026: the speed of rotation axis G00.

Format
G00 IP_;

IP_: In the absolute command, coordinate value of the end point is programmed.
In the incremental command the distance the tool moves is programmed.

2.1.2 Linear InterpolationG01

Description
The command G01 moves a tool to the position in the workpiece system with an
absolute or an incremental command at the speed which is specified in F.
The feedrate which is specified in F is effective until a new value is specified. It
need not be specified for each block. The feedrate should be within the range
which is determined by the system. The system will take the critical value
automatically if it is beyond the range.
1) If the speed which is specified in F is more than its maximum speed, the system
will take the maximum speed.
2) If the speed which is specified in F is less than its minimum speed, the system
will take the minimum speed.
The maximum speed and minimum speed are limited by the following parameter
settings:
P2035: the maximum speed in G01
P2041: the minimum speed in G01
In addition, its acceleration may also be limited the following parameter settings:
P2031: the acceleration of linear axis in G01.
P2032: the acceleration of rotation axis in G01.

Format
G01 IP_ F_;
IP_: For an absolute command, the coordinates of an end position, and for an
incremental command, the distance the tool moves.
F_: Speed of tool feed

Figure 2-2 G01 linear interpolation

mm /min is used as the unit of feed rate for the linear axis, while degrees/ min for
the rotation axis.
When using the linear axis (such as XY or Z) and rotation axis (such as AB or C)
for linear interpolation, the speed specified in F is feedrate along the arc in the
Cartesian coordinates which is composed of the linear axis and the rotation axis .
To obtain the feed speed of rotation axis, the time for movement should be
determined firstly. The feed speed of rotation axis (degrees / min) is equal to the
ratio of the distance that rotation axis moves and the time.

Example
G91 G01 X30 A50 F500
The A axis regards as a linear axis to calculate the feed time.

2.1.3 Circular Interpolation (G02, G03)

Description
Circular interpolation commands move a tool along a circular arc clockwise (G02)
or counterclockwise (G03). Circular interpolation includes several elements as
following, the user can program with a few of them.

1) The direction of circular interpolation

Clockwise(G02) and counterclockwise(G03) on the XY plane are defined when the
XY plane is viewed in the positivetonegative direction of the Z axis in the
Cartesian coordinate system. Similarly, the ZX plane is viewed in the
positivetonegative direction of the Y axis in the Cartesian coordinate system, the
YZ plane is viewed in the positivetonegative direction of the X axis in the
Cartesian coordinate system
See the figure 2-5 below.

Fig 2-5 Direction of the circular interpolation

2) Expression of the arc end point

The circular arc end point is specified with the command (X, Y, Z) . For an
absolute command, the workpiece coordinates of an arc end point, and for an
incremental command, the distance the tool moves. See the figure2-6 below.

Fig 2-6 Expression of a circular arc end point

3) Distance from the start point to the center of the arc

The arc center is specified by addresses I, J and K. The numerical value following I,
J or K, however, is a vector component in which the arc center is seen from the start
point, and is always specified as an incremental value irrespective of G90 and G91,
as shown below.
I, J and K must be signed according to the direction.
If X, Y, and Z are omitted , the end point is the same as the start point, and a full
circle which the center is specified with I, J, and K is specified.
As shown in Figure 2-7.

Fig 2-7 Expression of arc center

4) Radius
The arc center also can be specified with the radius in addition to the method
above. There are two situations:
a) central angle is less than 180;
b) central angle is more than 180;
The arc should be clearly specified in programming. It is determined by the sign of
the arc radius R. When the central angle is less than 180, R is specified with a
positive value. If the central angle is more than 180, R must be specified with a
negative value. As shown in Fig2-8.

Fig 2-8 Sign of radius

5) The Feedrate
The feedrate in circular interpolation is equal to the feed rate specified by the F
code, and the feedrate along the arc (the tangential feedrate of the arc) is controlled
to be the specified feedrate.

2.2 Canned cycle programming

The canned cycle command can execute the specific operation using one G code,
instead of several separated G commands in the program.
Canned cycles make it easier for the programmer to create programs. With a
canned cycle, a frequentlyused machining operation can be specified in a single
block with a G function; without canned cycles, normally more than one block is
required. In addition, the use of canned cycles can shorten the program to save
memory.

2.2.1

High-speed Peck Drilling cycle (G73)

Description
The highspeed peck drilling cycle performs intermittent feeding along the Zaxis.
When this cycle is used, chips can be removed from the hole easily. This allows,
drilling to be performed efficiently.
Before specifying G73, rotate the spindle using a miscellaneous function (M
code).When the G73 code and an M code are specified in the same block, the M
code is executed at the time of the first positioning operation. The system then
proceeds to the next drilling operation.

When K is used to specify the number of repeats, the M code is executed for the first
hole only; for the second and subsequent holes, the M code is not executed.
The action sequences as shown in Figure 2-11. Rapid positioning represents by
dashed in the figure.

2.2.2 Left-hand Tapping Cycle (G74)

G74 is similar to G84, the difference is that G74 command can create a reverse
thread. (Tapping is performed by turning the spindle counterclockwise. Then, the
spindle turns clockwise for retraction when the tool reaches the bottom of the hole).
In rigid tapping mode, using spindle motor to controlling the tapping process.

Spindle motor works as the servo motor. Performing tapping by the interpolation
between the tapping axis and spindle. When tapping is performed in rigid mode, the
spindle rotates one turn every time a thread lead which takes place along the tapping
axis. This operation does not vary even during acceleration or deceleration.
The action sequence of G74 is shown in Figure 2-12. Rapid traverse to the R-point
after positioning Along the X and Y axis, then the spindle turns counterclockwise,
and performs tapping from the R-point to the Z-point. stop and pause the spindle
when the tapping is completed, and then the spindle turns clockwise for retracting to
the R point, then the spindle stops. Rapid traverse is performed to return to the initial
level if it is in the G98 mode.

2) Z-point must be less than R-point, else an alarm is output;
3) the parameters of the command G74 are stored as modal data, the
same data can be omitted.

2.2.3 Fine Boring Cycle (G76)

Description
G76 command would bore a hole precisely. When the tool reaches the bottom of
the hole, the spindle stops, and the tool is retracted to the direction opposite to the
tool tip.
The shift amount which is opposite to the tool tip along X-axis at the bottom of a
hole is specified by I and J. I and J is modal value retained within canned cycles.
The shift direction is determined when loading a tool.

2.2.4 Drilling Cycle, Spot Drilling (G81)

Description
This cycle is used for normal drilling. Cutting feed is performed to the bottom of the
hole. The tool is then retracted from the bottom of the hole in rapid traverse.
After positioning along the X-and Y-axes, rapid traverse is performed to point R.
Drilling is performed from point R to point Z. The tool is then retracted in rapid
traverse. Before specifying G81, use a miscellaneous function (M code) to rotate the
spindle. When the G81 command and an M code are specified in the same block, the
M code is executed at the time of the first positioning operation. The system then
proceeds to the next drilling operation. When K is used to specify the number of
repeats, the M code is performed for the first hole only; for the second and
subsequent holes, the M code is not executed.
The action sequence of G81 is shown in Figure 2-14. Rapid positioning represents
by dashed in the figure.

2.2.5 Drilling Cycle Counter Boring Cycle (G82)

Description
This cycle is used for normal drilling. After positioning along the X and Y axes,
rapid traverse is performed to point R. Drilling is then performed from point R to
point Z. When the bottom of the hole has been reached, a dwell is performed. The
tool is then retracted in rapid traverse.
Before specifying G82, use a miscellaneous function (M code) to rotate the spindle.
When the G82 command and an M code are specified in the same block, the M code
is executed at the time of the first positioning operation. The system then proceeds to
the next drilling operation.
When K is used to specify the number of repeats, the M code is executed for the first
hole only; for the second and subsequent holes, the M code is not executed.
When a tool length offset (G43, G44, or G49) is specified in the canned cycle, the

offset is applied at the time of positioning to point R.

The action sequence of G82 is shown in Figure 2-15.

2.2.6 Peck Drilling Cycle (G83)

Description
This cycle performs peck drilling. It performs intermittent cutting feed to the
bottom of a hole while removing shavings from the hole.
Q represents the depth of cut for each cutting feed. It must always be specified as
an incremental value. The tool is retracted to the point R level to remove shavings
after performing the depth Q of each cutting feed. In the second and subsequent
cutting feeds, rapid traverse is performed up to a k point just before where the last
drilling ended, and cutting feed is performed again, Q is the depth of cutting.
K represents the retraction amount at each time in the incremental command, the k
point is the position that the retraction amount is k above the point the last drilling
ended.
Before specifying G83, use a miscellaneous function (M code) to rotate the spindle.
When the G83 command and an M code are specified in the same block, the M
code is executed at the time of the first positioning operation. The system then

proceeds to the next drilling operation.

When K is used to specify the number of repeats, the M code is executed for the
first hole only; for the second and subsequent holes, the M code is not executed.
When a tool length offset (G43, G44, or G49) is specified in the canned cycle, the
offset is applied at the time of positioning to point R.
The action sequence of G83 is shown in Figure 2-16.

2.2.7 Tapping Cycle (G84)

In rigid tapping mode, using spindle motor to controlling the tapping process.
Spindle motor works as the servo motor. Performing tapping by the interpolation
between the tapping axis and spindle. When tapping is performed in rigid mode,
the spindle rotates one turn every time a thread lead which takes place along the
tapping axis. This operation does not vary even during acceleration or

deceleration.
The action sequence of G84 is shown in Figure 2-17. Rapid traverse to the R-point
after positioning Along the X and Y axis, then the spindle turns counterclockwise,
and performs tapping from the R-point to the Z-point. stop and pause the spindle
when the tapping is completed, and then the spindle turns clockwise for retracting
to the R point, then the spindle stops. Rapid traverse is performed to return to the
initial level if it is in the G98 mode.

2.2.8 Boring Cycle (G85)

This cycle is used to bore a hole.
After positioning along the X and Y axes, rapid traverse is performed to point R.
Drilling is performed from point R to point Z. When point Z has been reached,
cutting feed is performed to return to point R., rapid traverse is performed to return
to initial level if it is in G98 mode.
Before specifying G85, use a miscellaneous function (M code) to rotate the spindle.
When the G85 command and an M code are specified in the same block, the M code
is executed at the time of the first positioning operation. The system then proceeds to
the next drilling operation.
When L is used to specify the number of repeats, the M code is executed for the first
hole only; for the second and subsequent holes, the M code is not executed.
When a tool length offset (G43, G44, or G49) is specified in the canned cycle, the
offset is applied at the time of positioning to point R.

2.2.11 Boring Cycle (G89)

This cycle is used to bore a hole.
This cycle is almost the same as G86. The difference is that this cycle performs a
dwell at the bottom of the hole.
Before specifying G89, use a miscellaneous function (M code) to rotate the spindle.
When the G89 command and an M code are specified in the same block, the M code
is executed at the time of the first positioning operation. The system then proceeds to
the next drilling operation. When L is used to specify the number of repeats, the M
code is executed for the first hole only; for the second and subsequent holes, the M
code is not executed.
When a tool length offset (G43, G44, or G49) is specified in the canned cycle, the

3.3 Coordinate System

3.3.1 Setting a Workpiece Coordinate System (G92)
A workpiece coordinate system is set so that a point on the tool, such as the tool tip,
is at specified coordinates.

As shown in Figure 32, if the tool tip location is (X = 50, Y = 40), the workpiece
coordinate system X1O1Y1 is established, if the tool tip location is (X = 70, Y =
50), the workpiece coordinate system X 2 O 2 Y2 is established.

Fig 3-2 Setting a Workpiece Coordinate System

If a coordinate system is set using G92 during tool length offset, a coordinate
system in which the position before offset matches the position specified in G92 is
set. As shown in Figure 3.3

Fig 3-3 Setting a Workpiece Coordinate System by G92

Format
G92 IP_;
IP_:
The coordinates of the tool tip at the set workpiece coordinate system.
the zero position of the axes which are not specified in the workpiece
coordinate remains the same in the command IP_, so the command G92
can set the zero position of all axes in the coordinate system
respectively.

Note:
The values of the workpiece coordinate system which is set by G92 are
losable, it is cleared when power off.

3.3.2 Selecting a Workpiece Coordinate SystemG54~G59

The user can also choose the coordinate system which has been set in CNC system
as the workpiece coordinate system for machining. It can set 6 workpiece
coordinate systems (refer to system operation manual ) as follows:
G54: Workpiece coordinate system 1 selection

G55: Workpiece coordinate system 1 selection

G56: Workpiece coordinate system 1 selection
G57: Workpiece coordinate system 1 selection
G58: Workpiece coordinate system 1 selection
G59: Workpiece coordinate system 1 selection
The zero position of all axes in the workpiece coordinate system is reset by the
workpiece coordinate system which has been chosen.
When the power is turned on, G54 coordinate system is selected.

3.3.3 Plane Selection (G17/G18/G19)

The user needs to select the planes for the functions of circular interpolation
coordinate system rotation mirror image and so on. There are three planes: XY
planeZX planeYZ plane. Select the planes by the following command:
G17:
XY plane, X-axis for the first axis, Y-axis for the second axis;
G18:
ZX plane, Z-axis for the first axis, X axis for the second axis;
G19:
YZ plane, Y-axis for the first axis, Z axis for the second axis;
The default planes are setting by the following parameters when the power is
turned on:
P1011 = 0: XY plane when power on (G17).
P1011 = 1: ZX plane when power on (G18).
P1011 = 2: YZ plane when power on (G19).

3.4 Tool compensation

3.4.1 Tool Length Compensation (G43/G44/G49)
Description
Generally, the tool length assumed during programming is not always equal to the
actual tool length. There is a offset value between them. To simplify the operation
and program, we can store it into the offset memory, then compensate the offset
value by the code of tool length compensation. In this way, normally machining is
performed without changing the program as long as we know the tool offset value,
even using the tools which have different length.
Specify the direction of offset with G43 or G44.

3.4.2 Cutter Compensation (G40/G41/G42)

Description
Generally, during programming the user just programs for the center of the tool
path, but during the actual machining, the tool path should be shifted by the radius
of the tool which is not zero, so the function of cutter compensation is needed
Specify the direction of tool radius compensation with G41 or G42:
G41:
Activate cutter compensation, tool operates in machining operation to the
left of the contour (Fig 3-5a).
G42:
Activate cutter compensation, tool operates in machining operation to the
right of the contour (Fig 3-5b).

3.5 Subprogram Control (M98)

Description
M98 is used to call a subprogram. The subprogram can be in the same file with the
main program, also can be in a file individually. If it is in the same file with the
main program, the letter O must be specified at the beginning of a program, else
the file name of the subprogram must be specified by a four-digit number, and has
no extension. It must be end with M99.
The subprogram in the same file with the main program has the priority to be
called.

4 High-speed And High-precision Mode (G05.1)

Generally, it approaches to the complex curving surface by minute line segments
during programming for moldings machining. In general machining mode, it is
insufficient to deal with minute line segments , which leads to low work efficiency
and crude surface. To realize high-speed machining, High-speed and
High-precision Mode which improves the function to deal with minute line
segments can enhance the machining speed.
High-speed High-precision Mode is specified by G05.1

4.1 High-speed and High-precision Mode (G05.1Q1)

Under High-speed and high-precision mode , the value of transition speed in the
point where the nearby line segments is connected is calculated automatically. To
realize high speed machining, it makes the value of transition speed to the
maximum under the precondition of no excessive acceleration appears.
Under High-speed and high-precision mode , the interpolation path is the same
as the programmed path.

4.2 High-speed and High-precision Mode (G05.1Q2)

High-speed and high-precision mode is the spline curve interpolation mode .
Under this mode, the tool path specified by G01 in the program is connected by
spline to interpolation. In the figure as follows if it satisfies the spline condition,
the dashed represents the programmed path and the real line represents the spline
path which is the actual movement of a tool. On the knee point of the programmed
path (such as the point BCD), a tool passes by with a high speed to realize the
high-speed machining.

Fig 4-1 spline interpolation

The line path specified by G01 can be made to spline under definite condition. It
includes the condition as follows:

1) Angle between the vectors of two nearby line segments

The angle is defined in the following figure. If it is less than the limited value, it
satisfies the spline condition and the interpolation controller makes the nearby line
segments to spline for interpolation, else it does not satisfy the spline condition. If
the angle of the line from nearby line exceed the limited value, linear interpolation
is performed for the line.
The limited value of the angle shaped by two nearby line segments is set by the
parameter P2050 for spline interpolation.

Fig 4-2 defining angle of the vectors

2) Ratio of the length of the two nearby line segments

If the ratio between L1 and L2 exceeds the limited value, it does not satisfy the
spline condition. We assume that the limited value is (>1), the spline condition
is defined as follows:
1 L1

L2

If the ratio exceeds the limited value, linear interpolation is performed for the line.
The limited value of the ratio is set by the parameter P2051.
