CNC Machinist Calculator UltraG53 Use machine coordinate system
Fadal G-code · Mill
Moves in machine coordinates for this block, ignoring the fixture offset. Fadal programs often use G53 Z0 to send Z to the top.
Format
G53 X Y Z
Addresses
| Address | What it does |
|---|---|
X Y Z | Machine coordinate point |
How it works
Non modal.
Example program
N20 G80 G0 Z1. M9
N21 G0 G53 Z0. M5 (Z TO MACHINE TOP)
N22 G53 X0. Y0. (TABLE TO MACHINE HOME)
N23 M30
N21 G0 G53 Z0. M5 (Z TO MACHINE TOP)
N22 G53 X0. Y0. (TABLE TO MACHINE HOME)
N23 M30
Example is in inch. Check offsets and clearances first.
Watch out for
- Always put G0 with it. A feed move in G53 is slow and unexpected.
- E0 also cancels the fixture offsets, but it stays on until a new E or G54.
