G86M1 ; G86Radial recessing cycleTurning, not automatically “translatable”, therefore commented out here with M1 ;. The cycle must then be reprogrammed.
G88M1 ; G88Axial recessing cycleTurning, not automatically “translatable”, therefore commented out here with M1 ;. The cycle must then be reprogrammed.

 

Other changes do not necessarily require the revision of existing programs, but may have an impact in the simulation:
