CNC Machinist Calculator UltraG0 Rapid travel
Fadal G-code · Mill
Moves at rapid rate to the end point. Use it only for moves in air. On a Fadal the axes do not always move in one straight line at rapid.
Format
G0 [X] [Y] [Z] [A] [B]
Addresses
| Address | What it does |
|---|---|
X Y Z | End point of the move |
A B | Rotary axis end point |
How it works
Modal, motion group. Stays on until G1, G2, G3 or a fixed cycle.
Example program
N1 G0 G40 G49 G80 G90 G17 (FORMAT 2 SAFE START)
N2 T1 M6 (1-2 END MILL)
N3 G0 G90 G54 X-.6 Y0. S3000 M3 (RAPID TO START)
N4 G43 H1 Z.1 M8 (RAPID DOWN WITH LENGTH OFFSET)
…
N2 T1 M6 (1-2 END MILL)
N3 G0 G90 G54 X-.6 Y0. S3000 M3 (RAPID TO START)
N4 G43 H1 Z.1 M8 (RAPID DOWN WITH LENGTH OFFSET)
…
The full 5-line example is in the app. Example is in inch. Check offsets and clearances first.
Watch out for
- In Format 2 you must program every preparatory code. Put G0 G90 and the offsets on the first moves of each tool.
- Lift Z first before long XY rapids near clamps.
- G5 gives a rapid for one block only, without changing the modal G1.
