x, y, z, a |
= distance in incremental units, or absolute coordinates, to which the
axes specified by the preceding upper case letter is designated to move
|
Purpose
Moves one or more of the axes, at the cutting or feed speed, along a straight
line to a specified position or a specified distance away from the current
position. Location is designated by absolute coordinates when this command is
preceded by the Absolute Coordinate command. Distance is specified by
incremental units when this command is preceded by the Incremental Coordinate
command.

The first command in this set indicates that the cutting command in line 2
will be performed in incremental motion. In line 3, the axes will move at the
cutting speed as follows: the X axis will move 3.5 units away in a negative
direction from its previous position, the Y axis will move 4 units away in a
positive direction from its previous position, and the Z axis will move 1 unit
away in a positive direction from its previous position. |
