

Boring Bidirectional is a boring cycle, generally used to make a pass 
in each direction on a bore or to tap with a self-reversing tapping 
head. It feeds from the R-plane to Z depth, and then feeds back to 
the retract height.



Boring Unidirectional is a boring cycle that allows the X-axis to back 
off the bore surface after the spindle has stopped and oriented itself. 
The cycle feeds from the R-plane to Z depth, dwell for the specified 
time, stop and orient the spindle to the specified angle C, back off 
in X, rapid retract in Z, re-position in X, and restart the spindle.

Your machine must be equipped with spindle M-functions 
(Spindle Forward [M3], Spindle Reverse [M4], Spindle Off 
[M5]) and spindle orientation (M19) to use this cycle. Do 
not use this cycle if the machine does not have the spindle 
commands and spindle orientation.
