LAB#7: COMPLEX PART USING G03 IJK INPUT

Description:
From now onwards we will be using absolute co-ordinate system G90. In this Lab we will be focusing
on the circular interpolation using the command G03 with IJK input. G03 command takes the final point
(where our circular interpolation is to be finished) along with the distance of starting point from the
centre of curvature as input. It is important to note that G03 is used when we are moving or tool in anti-
clockwise direction.

Example:
We will make a smiley emoji pattern part by using the CNC Simulator Pro and G90 (absolute co-
ordinate system).
For this part we must remove the material from the block of 100×100×5 mm plate and embed a hole for
eyes as shown in the graph above. We first start by giving the co-ordinate of the points as we have done
in the graph attached above. We use G03 circular interpolation which interpolates in the anti-clockwise
manner.
Note: We can see a visual difference in the smile part that by changing the I and J we get different type
of curvature.

The $AddRegPart 4 is the default input command of the CNC Simulator Pro. It inserts the
workpiece of our own dimensions we give to the CNC simulator. Also, tool added start with E which are
the embedded tool in the software. G92 Code is used for setting the workpiece offset so that our zero
position in the centre of the workpiece. The centre was chosen as the symmetry of circular feature makes
it easier to calculate the co-ordinates easier.

Tools Used in Part:
The tool used was embedded tool 1 (ET1) of CNC Simulator Pro. Which is an endmill cutter with
diameter of 5 mm.
