CYCLE BORE5(209) - G85 drilling cycle
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.
G85 boring cycle performs rapid approach to the safe level, work feedrate boring will spindle stop at Z min level and work feedrate retract to the safe plane level.
Cycle includes:
- Rapid approach to Z safe level.
- Work feedrate travel to Z min level.
- Spindle stop.
- Work feedrate retract to Safe plane level.
- Restore spindle rotation direction and speed.
