Circular Interpolation With Radius And End Point (G2/G3, X - Siemens SINUMERIK 828D Programming Manual

Motion commands
9.6 Circular interpolation
9.6.3 Circular interpolation with radius and end point (G2/G3, X... Y... Z.../ I... J... K...,
CR)
Function
The circular motion is described by the:
● Circle radius
● End point in Cartesian coordinates
In addition to the circle radius, you must also specify the leading sign +/– to indicate whether
the traversing angle is to be greater than or less than 180°. A positive leading sign can be
omitted.
Note
There is no practical limitation on the maximum size of the programmable radius.

Note
You don't need to specify the center point with this procedure. Full circles (traversing angle
360°) are not programmed with
parameters.

: End point in Cartesian coordinates. These specifications depend on the
travel commands G90/G91 or ...=AC(...)/...=IC(..)
: Circle center point in Cartesian coordinates (in X, Y, Z direction)
The identifiers have the following meanings:
I: Coordinate of the circle center point in the X direction
J: Coordinate of the circle center point in the Y direction
K: Coordinate of the circle center point in the Z direction
: Circle radius
The identifiers have the following meanings:
CR=+...: Angle less than or equal to 180°
CR=–...: Angle more than 180°
