G24 Tapered Facing
A G24 block that includes a K-word generates a facing pass that produces
a taper.

The format for the G24 single-pass cycle to cut a taper on a face is:
G24X__Z__K__;
Where : Is :
X__ the lengthof cut along theX axis. In incrementalmode specifythe amount of
feed across the part, inabsolute modespecify thecoordinate positionof the end
point of the cutting stroke. X maybe programmedas either adiameter or radius
value.
Z__ the depthof cut for the Zaxis at theend point of thecutting moveinto thepart.
In incremental mode specifythe amount of infeed, inabsolute modespecify the
coordinate position at the desired depthof cut.
K__ the amount of changein thedepth of cut for theZ axis. K is alwaysan
incremental value. Figure 22.9shows therelationship betweenthe signof the K
value and the way that the cycleis performed. The control adds thevalue of K
to the Z depth todetermine thestart point of the cuttingpass.
