Facing Cycle in Fanuc Control G72 or Transverse Roughing Cycle
Programming format:-
G72 W__ R__ ;
G72 P__ @__ U__ W__ F__ S___ T__ ;
W = Cutting Depth
R = Escape Distance
P = Head Sequence No. For Finishing Shape
Q = End Sequence No. For Finishing Shape
U = Finishing Allowance and Direction In X Axis Direction (Diametric Vale)
W = Finishing Allowance and Direction in Z Axis Direction
F = Feed Rate
S = Cutting Speed
T = Tool Number
Note:-
If F and S commands exist in blocks defined by p and Q, they will be ignored during roughing cycle because they are considered for finishing cycle.
