CNC PROGRAMMING CODES

CNC PROGRAMMING CODES

1. G CODES

   • G commands often tell the control what kind of motion is wanted (e.g., rapid positioning, linear feed, circular feed, fixed cycle) or what offset value to use.

2. M CODES

   • Action code, auxiliary command; descriptions vary. Many M-codes call for machine functions, which is why people often say that the "M" stands for "machine", although it was not intended to.

3. ALPHA CODES

   • They are codes that represent numbers and alphabetic characters (letters). In addition, they are very useful when using other functions in the machine.
