G43.4 IP
H ; Starts tool center point control (type 1).
:
G17 : X-Y plane of the table coordinate system
G18 : Z-X plane of the table coordinate system
G19 : Y-Z plane of the table coordinate system
G02 : Clockwise (CW) circular interpolation
G03 : Counterclockwise (CCW) circular interpolation
IP : In the case of an absolute command, the coordinate value of the
end point of the tool tip movement
In the case of an incremental command, the amount of the tool tip
movement
(This pertains only to two axes on the specified plane.)
I, J, K : Specify the distance between the start point in the rotation axis
position of the block start point and the center of the arc, as seen
from the programming coordinate system.
R : Arc radius R > 0: The center angle of the arc is less than 180°.
R < 0: The center angle of the arc is more than 180°.
α, β : In the case of an absolute command, the coordinate value of the
end point of the rotation axis
In the case of an incremental command, the amount of the rotation
axis movement
F : Specified speed (speed in the tangent direction of the arc as seen
from the table coordinate system)
H : Tool offset number

Movement to the position specified by the G43.4 block does not constitute tool center
point control. Only tool length compensation is performed along the tool axis direction.
While the rotation axes are moving, the CNC controls the control points so that the
tool center point moves along an arc with respect to the table (workpiece). The end of
the tool center point comes to the point specified on the programming coordinate
system.
CAUTION
Any command that does not move the tool center point with respect to the
workpiece (one that moves the rotation axes only) must be executed in
G00 or G01 mode.
