5.5 Path Contours - Polar Coordinates<br />

5-28<br />

Polar coordinates are useful for programming:<br />

• Positions on circular arcs<br />

• Positions from workpiece drawings showing<br />

angular dimensions<br />

Section 1.2 "Fundamentals of NC" (see page 1-8)<br />

provides a detailed description of polar coordinates.<br />

Polar coordinate origin: Pole I, J, K<br />

You can define the pole anywhere in the program before the blocks<br />

containing polar coordinates. Enter the pole in Cartesian coordinates as a<br />

circle center in a I, J, K block. A pole definition remains effective until a<br />

new pole is defined. The designation of the pole is derived from its<br />

position in the working plane.<br />

You can define the last programmed position as POLE by entering G29.<br />

• You can enter any value from –<strong>360</strong>° to +<strong>360</strong>° for H.<br />

• Enter the algebraic sign for H relative to the angle reference axis:<br />

For an angle from the reference axis counterclockwise to R: H>0<br />

For an angle from the reference axis clockwise to R: H
