G00 Rapid positioning
Brother Speedio G-code · Mill
Moves the axes at rapid traverse to the commanded point. Use it for moves in air, never for cutting.
Format
G00 X Y Z
Addresses
| Address | What it does |
|---|---|
X Y Z | End point of the rapid move |
How it works
Modal, motion group. Stays active until G01, G02, G03 or a canned cycle.
Example program
G90 G54 G00 X0 Y0 (RAPID TO PART ZERO)
G43 H01 Z1. (RAPID TO 1 INCH ABOVE PART)
Z.1 (RAPID CLOSE TO SURFACE)
G01 Z-.25 F10. (FEED INTO PART)
G43 H01 Z1. (RAPID TO 1 INCH ABOVE PART)
Z.1 (RAPID CLOSE TO SURFACE)
G01 Z-.25 F10. (FEED INTO PART)
Example is in inch. Check offsets and clearances first.
Watch out for
- Rapid moves may not be a straight line on every axis. Clear clamps and parts with Z first.
- Speedio rapids are very fast. Prove new programs with rapid override turned down.
