CYCLE DEEP(153) - Deep drilling with chip removing
Kept for compatibility. CYCLE is retained only for compatibility with older postprocessors. Current versions of the CAM system generate the extended cycle command EXTCYCLE instead: it offers more capabilities and lets the CAM system fully simulate all of the cycle's nested motions, which CYCLE does not. Output of CYCLE can still be turned on in the CAM system settings, but this is not recommended.
Deep drilling with chip removing cycle performs rapid approach to the safe level and repeated drilling according to specified cut-in depth value ZI and withdrawal Zi values.
Cycle includes:
- Rapid travel to the Z safe level.
- Work feedrate travel to the Zl.
- Rapid retract to the Z safe level.
- Rapid travel to the Zl - Zi level.
- Work feedrate travel to the Zl + Zi level.
- Rapid retract to the Z safe level.
- Rapid travel to the 2*Zl - Zi level.
- Work feedrate travel to the Zl + Zi level.
- Rapid retract to the Z safe level.
- Repeat until the hole depth level is reached.
- Rapid retract to the Safe plane level.
