Example
The pocket occurs twice on this workpiece, but
with different sizes and rotated in relation to
one another. The machining sequence is stor‐
ed in the subprogram.
The required workpiece zeroes are set with
zero offset and rotation, the contour is scaled
down with scaling and the subprogram is then
called again.

Further information
SCALE X... Y... Z...
You can specify an individual scale factor for each axis, by which the shape is to be reduced or
enlarged. The scale refers to the workpiece coordinate system set with G54 to G57, G505 to
G599.
NOTICE
No original frame
The SCALE command resets all frame components of the previously activated programmable
frame.
