Feedrate Control and Spindle Motion
7.1 Feedrate (G93, G94, G95 or F..., FGROUP, FGREF)
Caution
The FGREF evaluation also works if only rotary axes are programmed in the block. The
normal F value interpretation as degree/min applies in this case only if the radius reference
corresponds to the FGREF default, when
G71/G710: FGREF[A]=57.296
G70/G700: FGREF[A]=57.296/25.4
Units of measurement and calculation
Machine manufacturer
See machine manufacturer's specifications.
Units of measurement for feedrate F
You can use the following G commands to define the units of measurement for the feed
input. Feedrate functions are not affected by G70/G71.
Note
With G700/G710, feedrate values F are interpreted as geometrical parameters in the
measuring system set by G function (G700: [inch/min]; G710: [mm/min]).
Feedrate G93
Unit 1/rpm. The inverse-time feedrate specifies the time required to execute the motion
commands in a block.
Example: N10 G93 G01 X100 F2 means: the programmed path is traversed in 0.5 min.
