Cycle Syntax
G73 U5.0 W1.0 R5;
G73 P100 Q110 U0.5 W0.2 F0.15;
G73 P100 Q110 U0.5 W0.2 F0.15;
Parameter Explanation
U – Total stock in X-axis (radial value)
W – Total stock in Z-axis
R – Number of roughing passes
P – Start block number
Q – End block number
U – Finish allowance in X
W – Finish allowance in Z
F – Feedrate (mm/rev)
Key Notes
🔹 G73 is a roughing cycle that repeats a defined cutting pattern between blocks P and Q.
🔸 The U and W values on the first line represent total material to remove.
🔹 The second line uses U/W for finishing allowance and F for feedrate.
🔸 Ideal for patterns requiring consistent step passes.
