End point behind contour
If the end point is behind the contour, a circle or straight line is always inserted depending on G450/G451. In this
case, G460-G462 has no effect.
If, in this situation, the last traversing block has no intersection with a preceding block, an intersection with the
inserted contour element or with the linear section from the end point of the circumnavigation circle to the
programmed end point can result.
If the inserted contour element is a circle (G450), and it intersects with the preceding block, this is the same as
the intersection, which would be produced with NORM and G461. In general, however, a remaining section of the
circle still has to be traversed. An intersection calculation is no longer required for the linear section of the
retraction block.
In the second case (if no intersection is found between the inserted contour element and the preceding blocks),
the intersection between the retraction straight line and a preceding block is approached.
Therefore, when G461 or G462 is active, behavior deviating from G460 can only arise if NORM is active or if
behavior with KONT is identical to NORM due to the geometrical conditions.
Example:
Program for using G461 during approach:
Note
The approach behavior is symmetrical to the retraction behavior.
The approach/retraction behavior is determined by the state of the G command in the
approach/retraction block. The approach behavior can therefore be set independently of the
retraction behavior.
