Fundamentals:-
The cycle G74 stands for longitudinal cutting process. Where we remove material from face ether performing as drilling cycle or face grooving, the cycle is beneficial to cut stubborn materials like stainless steels.
Because of complete material removal motion. In G74 cycle we can cut through along with 'Z' axis as well as 'X' axis, also can use on turnmill operations while drilling off centre drills.
Format of G74:-
________
G74 R
G74 P Q X Z F
________
R- retraction amount.
P- shifting value while cutting along X axis in micron.
Q- Depth of cut in micron.
X- Cutting last destinations along X axis.
Z- Cutting last destinations along Z axis.
F- Feed.
Note:- shifting value 'P' should not exceed the width of grooving tool.
If tool width is 4mm then shifting value should be 3.5mm.
Example:-
G00 X40.0 Z2.0;
G74 R0.5 (shifting value);
G74 P3500( 3.4 shift value) Q500 (depth of cut) X52.0 Z-7.0 F0.07;
G00 Z10.0
