Command Architecture & Functional Overview

G85 vs G86 Precision Boring Canned Cycles is a fundamental CNC programming directive utilized across Fanuc, Siemens, Haas, and Heidenhain controllers for Feed-in feed-out boring (G85) for smooth bore walls vs feed-in spindle-stop rapid-retract (G86) for rough boring cuts..

Syntax Structure & Execution Parameters

  • Command Category: Precision Boring Cycles (Modal Canned Cycle).
  • Standard Syntax: G85 X0 Y0 Z-30. R3. F50. / G86 Z-30. R3. F80..
  • Operational Function: G85 feeds out; G86 stops spindle and rapids.
  • Critical Safety Rule: G85 produces scratch-free H7 bearing bores; G86 saves time in rough boring but leaves a single vertical line on bore walls.
  • Production Integration: Tested and standardized across UCAN ROBOT's 150+ high-precision CNC machining centers for zero-collision continuous automated manufacturing.
