24.2 Rapid traverse G0
Application
The rapid traverse movement G0 is used for rapid positioning of the tool, but not for direct
workpiece machining. All axes can be traversed simultaneously. This results in a straight
path.
For each axis, the maximum speed (rapid traverse) is defined in machine data
MD32000 MAX_AX_VELO. If only one axis traverses, it uses its rapid traverse. If, for
example, two axes are traversed simultaneously, the path velocity (resulting velocity) is
selected to achieve the maximum possible path velocity under consideration of both axes.
If, for example, two axes have the same maximum velocity and also travel the same path,
the path velocity = 1.41 * max. axis velocity.
The feedrate F is not relevant for G0. It is, however, kept in the memory.
Rapid traverse override
In the AUTOMATIC operating mode, it can be set through the "Position" operation area ->
"Program control" softkey that the feedrate override switch also applies to the rapid traverse.
The active function is displayed with ROV in the status line. HMI to PLC sets the IS
"Feedrate override for rapid traverse selected" (V1700 0001.3). The PLC user program must
place this signal on the IS "Rapid traverse override active" (V3200 0006.6).
