/ can be used to mirror workpiece shapes on coordinate axes. All traversing
AMIRROR
: Mirror absolute in relation to the currently valid coordinate system
set with G54 to G57, G505 to G599.
: Additive mirror image with reference to the currently valid set or
programmed coordinate system
: Geometry axis whose direction is to be changed. The value
specified here can be chosen freely, e.g. X0 Y0 Z0.

The contour shown here is programmed
once as a subprogram. The 3 other contours
are generated using mirroring. The
workpiece zero is located at the center of
the contours.
