Let's program G-Code series

G-Code Lathe Project - The Bush Part 2

Part Two - G70 Finishing Cycle

The second video in this series will teach you how to program a CNC lathe to make a bush. This series of free lessons is a sample of what you will learn in the CNC Lathe programming course available here

In this lesson, we call upon the subroutine that we wrote during the G71 roughing cycle and reuse it as a g70 finishing cycle.

Important note

“My courses teach a generic version of FANUC G-Code that may be slightly different than the version used by your machine. By learning the generic g-code that is taught by trade schools (and me) it is easy to adapt to custom versions of the language by reviewing pre-written programs or by consulting the operators manual. There are many variables at play between machines, even two of the same machines may not safely run the same program depending on many factors. Because of this, you should never expect to be able to copy a program into a machine and expect it to work without issues. Even my programs. The example code in my videos is for training purposes only and not intended to be run in a machine.”
