Patterns
The following four cutting patterns are considered. All of these
cutting cycles cut the workpiece with moving the tool in parallel to the
first axis on the plane (Z-axis for the ZX plane). The signs of ∆u and
∆w are as follows:
Both linear and
circular interpolation

Fig. 6.4.1 (c) Four target figure patterns
Limitation
(1) For U(+), a figure for which a position higher than the cycle start
point is specified cannot be machined.
For U(-), a figure for which a position lower than the cycle start
point is specified cannot be machined.
(2) For type I, the figure must show monotone increase or decrease
along the first and second axes on the plane.
(3) For type II, the figure must show monotone increase or decrease
along the first axis on the plane.
Start block
In the start block in the program for a target figure (block with
sequence number ns in which the path between A and A' is specified),
G00 or G01 must be specified. If it is not specified, alarm PS0065 is
issued.
When G00 is specified, cutting along path A-A' is performed in the
positioning mode. When G01 is specified, cutting along path A-A' is
performed in the linear interpolation mode.
In this start block, also select type I or II.
