2.1 Overview of cycles
Cycles are generally applicable technology subroutines that you can use to carry out a
specific machining process, such as tapping. These cycles are adapted to individual tasks by
parameter assignment.
Drilling cycles and turning cycles
The following standard cycles can be carried out using the SINUMERIK 808D control
system:
● Drilling cycles
CYCLE81: Drilling, centering
CYCLE82: Drilling, counterboring
CYCLE83: Deep-hole drilling
CYCLE84: Rigid tapping
CYCLE840: Tapping with compensating chuck
CYCLE85: Reaming 1
CYCLE86: Boring
CYCLE87: Drilling with stop 1
CYCLE88: Drilling with stop 2
CYCLE89: Reaming 2
● Turning cycles
CYCLE92: Cut-off
CYCLE93: Recess
CYCLE94: Undercut (DIN form E and F)
CYCLE95: Stock removal with relief cutting
CYCLE96: Thread undercut
CYCLE98: Thread chain
CYCLE99: Thread cutting
