G60 Exact stop, modal
Siemens 840D 828D G-code · Mill and lathe
Each block ends inside the exact stop window before the next block starts. Gives sharp corners but slower motion. G601 is the fine window, G602 the coarse window, G603 ends at interpolation end.
Format
G60 [G601 or G602 or G603]
Addresses
| Address | What it does |
|---|---|
G601 | Next block starts when the axes are inside the fine exact stop window |
G602 | Next block starts inside the coarse exact stop window |
G603 | Next block starts when interpolation ends |
How it works
G60 is modal, G group 10. G601, G602 and G603 are modal, G group 12, and only act with G60 or G9.
Example program
G60 G601 ; EXACT STOP, FINE WINDOW
G1 X50 Y0 F800 ; SHARP CORNER
Y30
G64 ; BACK TO CONTINUOUS PATH
G1 X50 Y0 F800 ; SHARP CORNER
Y30
G64 ; BACK TO CONTINUOUS PATH
Example is in inch. Check offsets and clearances first.
Watch out for
- G60 slows every corner. For long contour programs use G64 and only stop where needed with G9.
- G601 is the most accurate but the slowest.
