CNC Prg. Basics 1
CNC Programming Basics
Program structureEvery program consists of:1. Program Start
The program start is the program number. The program number begins with character/letter O.
2. Program ContentsNC blocks
3. Program EndM30 for a main programM17 for a sub-program

CNC Prg. Basics 3
CNC Program Blocks (1)
• N is the address• Block numbers from
N0000 to• N9999• A block consists of
number and words• Words are contents of a
block• Block numbers are
selected in the jumps of ten for the purpose of insertion
CNC Prg. Basics 4
CNC Program Blocks (2)
• A block consists of one or more blocks
• A Word consists of a character (address) and a number.
• Every address has a certain meaning, on which the corresponding number depends
CNC Prg. Basics 5
CNC Prg. Syntax Regulations
• The maximum block length must not exceeded four lines. If max. length exceeded alarm 650 occurs.
• Every block starts with a block number.• After the block numbers follows the G
command.• Words consists of coordinates X(U), Z(W).• For G02, G03 program interpolation parameter
I and K are placed after X(U), Z(W).• The F word (feed, thread pitch).• The S word (cutting speed).• The T word (tool address).• The M word (additional functions).

Self-holding Functions (1)
• The majority of G and M commands and other words are self-holding, remain active until overwritten or deactivated/deselected.
• Aimed to simplify and to reduce programming tasks. Example: G41 can be deactivated by issuing G40 command.
CNC Prg. Basics 10
Self-holding Functions (2)
Take-over of G00 commands in block N0110In block N0120 G00 is deactivated by G01. G01 is active.

Example 2:
M03 activated at N0050 and effective from N0050 through N120. M03 deactivated at N0120 by M04 command
CNC Prg. Basics 11
Reference Points
M = Machine zero point.(unchangeable ref. Point determined by machine manufacturer)N = Tool mounting reference pointW = Work piece zero point. (can be freely determined by the programmer and can be moved within program
