Workpiece clamping - settable work offset: G54 to G59, G500, G53, G153
Functionality
The settable work offset specifies the position of the workpiece zero on the machine (offset of the workpiece zero with
respect to the machine zero). This offset is determined upon clamping of the workpiece into the machine and must be
entered in the corresponding data field by the operator. The value is activated by the program by selection from six possible
groupings: G54 to G59.
Note
Workpiece clamping at an angle is possible by entering the angles of rotation around the machine axes. These rotation
portions are activated with the offset G54 to G59.
Programming

; Settable work offset OFF - modal
G53
; settable work offset OFF, non-modal, also suppresses programmable offset
