- Operations
A taper cutting cycle performs the same four operations as a straight
cutting cycle.
However, operation 1 moves the tool from the start point (A) to the
position obtained by adding the taper amount to the specified
coordinate of the second axis on the plane (specified X-coordinate for
the ZX plane) in rapid traverse.
Operations 2, 3, and 4 after operation 1 are the same as for a straight
cutting cycle.
NOTE
In single block mode, operations 1, 2, 3, and 4 are
performed by pressing the cycle start button once.
- Relationship between the sign of the taper amount and tool path
The tool path is determined according to the relationship between the
sign of the taper amount (address I, J, or K) and the cutting end point
in the direction of the length in the absolute or incremental
programming as follows.

- Canceling the mode
To cancel the canned cycle mode, specify a group 01 G code other
than G90, G92, or G94.
