Path Contours – Polar Coordinates
G12/G13/G15: Circular path around pole I, J, K
The polar coordinate radius is also the radius of the arc. It is defined by the
distance from the starting point
S
to the pole.
Input
• Polar coordinate angle H for the end point of the arc
Permissible values for H: –5400° to +5400°
Defining the direction of rotation
Direction of rotation
• Clockwise
G12
• Counterclockwise
G13
• No definition
G15
(the last programmed direction of rotation is used)
Circle, polar coordinates, clockwise.
Enter angle H for the end point of the arc (here, H = 30°).
Confirm entry.
