easy

Complete the code to set the vise jaw opening to 50 mm.

CNC Programming

G54 ; Select work coordinate system
M06 T01 ; Tool change to tool 1
S1200 M03 ; Spindle on clockwise at 1200 RPM
G00 X0 Y0 Z50 ; Rapid move to safe height
M08 ; Coolant on
G01 Z[1] F100 ; Move down to clamp height

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a positive value which moves the tool up instead of down.

Setting too large a negative value causing collision.

The vise jaw opening height is set by moving the tool down to -5 mm at a controlled feed rate.

Complete the code to activate the vise clamp after positioning.

CNC Programming

G00 X0 Y0 Z10 ; Move to safe position
M[1] ; Activate vise clamp
G04 P1 ; Dwell for 1 second to ensure clamp

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using M08 which turns coolant on instead of clamping.

Using M06 which is tool change.

M09 is commonly used to activate the vise clamp in CNC programs.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using negative values which move the jaw in the wrong direction.

Using values too large for the machine limits.

The vise jaw position should be set to 30 mm, a positive value for correct positioning.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting feed rate too high causing unsafe movement.

Setting position too large causing mechanical issues.

The jaw position is 25 mm and the feed rate is 100 mm/min for safe movement.

hard

Fill all three blanks to complete the vise setup sequence.

CNC Programming

G54 ; Select work coordinate system
G00 X[1] Y[2] Z[3] ; Move to safe position

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting Z too low causing collision.

Setting X or Y to non-zero causing misalignment.

Moving to X=0, Y=0, Z=50 mm is a safe position before starting milling.
