SETTING THE COORDINATE SYSTEM USING G50
This section describes the procedure for setting the coordinate system using the G50 coordinate
system setting function.
The coordinate system function called by the G50 command sets the distance from the program
zero point or workpiece zero point (X0, Z0), which is used as the reference point for absolute
programming, to the programmed tool start point of each tool.
It is also possible to specify the clamp speed of the spindle for individual processes.
Before attempting the operation above, follow the operation as explained in 3 "PREPARATION
FOR SETTING THE COORDINATE SYSTEM".
