CNC Lathe Programming Using Fanuc G-Coding & M-Coding

Hi, my name is Chris and welcome to my course on CNC Lathe programming.

Programming CNC machines is a very important skill for anyone looking to get into the machining business.

This course serves as a springboard into CNC Lathe machining . If you're interested in programming, and you're not already programming CNC Lathes and machining centres and have some basic understanding of CNC Lathes, then this course is perfect for you!

Rather than relying on CAD/CAM to produce parts, I will teach you how to manually input codes and breakdown cycles giving you a clear understanding of G-codes, M-codes & canned cycles. With written program examples to make learning to program easy.

In this course we will be learning the basics of programming a 2-Axis CNC Lathe. We will be covering topics such as:

• Program Layout

• Cartesian coordinate system

• Program heading

• Block search

• Program safety line

• Return to reference

• Tool change & offset

• G96 & G97 spindle speed control ( plus constant surface speed formula calculation)

• G-codes (G0, G01, G02 & G03)

Canned Cycles:

• G71 stock removal cycle

• G70 finish pass cycle

• G83 peck drilling cycle

• G72 facing cycle

• G75 grooving cycle

• G75 part-off cycle

I will explain in detail about each cycle breaking down every part of the program

You will find the videos in the course specially created for making you understand these.

Who this course is for:

• Apprentice

• CNC Machine operator

• Machinist

• CNC Hobbyist

If your unsure about something or have a question then please get in touch.

Hope to see you on the course.
