G87 Radial Drilling Cycle
Fanuc G87 Radial Drilling Cycle activates the side radial drilling cycle with driven tools.
Fanuc G87 Radial Drilling Cycle works on FANUC SERIES 21i/18i/16i– TA and compatible cnc controls.

Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| X | Absolute value at end of drilling |
| F | Drilling feed ( in mm/minute) |
| Q | Depth of cut (in thousandths) |
| P | Pause at bottom of hole ( in thousandths of seconds) |
| R | Incremental distance from starting point of cycle to starting point of hole |
Machining Sequence
WithFanuc G87 Radial Drilling Cycle the drill makes a series of pecks, of the required size, undercutting or breaking the chip and returning with a rapid traverse at the end of cycle to the starting point or to point R.
Cancel G87
To cancel G87 Radial Drilling Cycle use G80 or any G function of the 01 group, i.e. G0, G1, G2, or G3.
Related Parameters
G87 Radial Drilling Cycle can be used with chip breakage or undercutting, depending on the value of parameter 5101 bit
2 (if it is 0 chip breakage,
if it is 1 chip undercutting)
by default this bit is set to 1 for chip undercutting.
Parameter 5114 determines:
– in the case of chip undercutting, the distance at which the bit must stop in relation to the last point
reached when re-entering the hole after undercutting.
– in the case of chip breaking, how much the bit must back off between one cut and the next for drilling
