1.3 Programming the First Part
Program layout
NC programs should be arranged consistently in a similar manner. This
makes it easier to find your place and reduces errors.
Recommended program layout for simple, conventional contour
machining
1 Call tool, define tool axis
2 Retract the tool
3 Pre-position the tool in the working plane near the contour starting
point
4 In the tool axis, position the tool above the workpiece, or pre-
position immediately to workpiece depth. If required, switch on
the spindle/coolant
5 Move to the contour
6 Machine the contour
7 Leave the contour
8 Retract the tool, end the program

Contour programming: See “Tool Movements” on page 188
Recommended program layout for simple cycle programs
1 Call tool, define tool axis
2 Retract the tool
3 Define the fixed cycle
4 Move to the machining position
5 Call the cycle, switch on the spindle/coolant
6 Retract the tool, end the program
