2.4. 2.1 Feed Per Revolution (G 99 Mode)
(1) Tool feed per revolution of the spindle can
be specified with F (normal feed) or E ( fine
feed) .
(2) The feed ranges that can be specified by
the F and E codes are as follows.

Notes :
1. Program feed per revolution within such a range that the
X-axis component remains below 12,000 mm/min or
1,200 in./min.
2. This uppar limit may still be reduced by the performance
limit of the machine.
Refer to the machine tool builder’s manual.
Notes :

3.
A command “FO” causes data errors.
Any minus value should not be specified for
F commands.
If specified,
the machine will
not operate properly.
EXAMPLE

Feedrate commands in the direction of the
X–axis must be given in radius.
EXAMPLE
G99 S350 (r/rein) ;
GO1 U1OO. F200 ;
. . . In case of F32.
In the above case, the feedrate is:
F x S = 2.0 mm/rev. x 35o r/rein

Values of F command at linear or circular in–
terpolation represent the tangential feedrate
when two axes are simultaneously controlled.

In the above case, the feedrate is
