4.3 Rapid traverse movement (G0, RTLION, RTLIOF)
Function
You can use the rapid traverse movements to position the tool rapidly, to travel round the
workpiece or to approach tool change locations.
Non-linear interpolation is activated using RTLIOF parts program commands; linear
interpolation is activated using RTLION.
Note
This function is not suitable for workpiece machining!

X Y Z
End point in Cartesian coordinates
AP=
End point in polar coordinates, in this case the polar angle
RP=
End point in polar coordinates, in this case the polar radius
RTLIOF with G0
Nonlinear interpolation
(each path axis interpolates as a single axis)
RTLION with G0
Linear interpolation (path axes are interpolated together)
Note
G0 cannot be replaced with G.
G0 is modal.
