G86 boring cycle is used to bore a hole.
Syntax
G86 X... Y... Z... R... F... K...
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
X | Hole position in x-axis. |
Y | Hole position in y-axis. |
Z | Depth, tapping from R-plane to Z-depth. |
R | Position of the R plane. |
K | Number of cycle repetitions (if required). |
F | Feedrate. |
Once given in program G86 boring cycle is repeated at every axis movement until G80 is given in program to end this cycle.

Working
Brief description of how G86 boring cycle works,
1- Rapid traverse to X, Y position.
2- Rapid traverse to R-plane.
3- Boring with feed from R-plane to Z-depth.
4- Spindle stop at bottom of the hole.
5-1- Rapid traverse to R-plane (G99) or Initial-level (G98)
5-2- Spindle start CW
G98 G99 Modes
How G86 boring cycle behaves upon G98 or G99 mode,
G98 Boring tool will return to the Initial level
G99 Boring tool will return to R-plane.
For a working example see G81 drilling cycle.
Repeat Drilling
If K parameter value is given with G86 boring cycle, then boring will repeat the number of times given with K. See G81 drilling cycle example.
