23-03 Skipped Holes with Obstacles
This bolt hole project can be classified as an advanced programming exercise, although it looks quite simple.
The purpose of this project is to spot drill and drill two parts - Part A and Part B, using one main program and
one subprogram. Both parts are made from the same drawing:
Part A with all holes, Part B with several holes skipped.
Subprograms are covered in Chapter 39 of the CNC Programming Handbook.
ò Please follow these requirements:
• Set X0Y0 at the center of the ring, Z0 at the top of the ring, NOT the lugs
• Start with the first tool in the spindle (use T01 for the spot drill and T02 for the drill)
• Machine holes in the order numbers in the drawing
• PART A - Machine all 12 holes, with the block skip switch set to OFF
• PART B - Machine only holes 1-2-3-5-6-9-10-12 (skip holes 4-7-8-11),
using the same subprogram, with the block skip switch set to ON
• User R-level at 2 mm above the ring surface.
