Information
In addition to the programmable offset and the scale factor, the following functions exist:
● Programmable rotation ROT, AROT and
● programmable mirroring, MIRROR, AMIRROR.
These functions are primarily used in milling.
Examples of rotation and mirroring: see the topic "
List of instructions (Page 12)".
1.2.7 Workpiece clamping - settable work offset: G54 to G59, G500, G53, G153
Functionality
The adjustable work offset specifies the position of the workpiece zero on the machine
(offset of the workpiece zero with respect to the machine zero point). This offset is
determined upon clamping of the workpiece into the machine and must be entered in the
corresponding data field by the operator. The value is activated by the program by selection
from six possible groupings: G54 to G59.
Programming
G54 to G59 ; 1. to 6th settable work offset
G500 ; Settable work offset OFF - modal
G53 ; settable work offset OFF non-modal, also suppresses programmable
offset
G153 ; As with G53; additionally suppresses base frame
