Cutting direction
A cutting tool may move along an arc in two directions:
Clockwise (CW)
Counter clockwise (CCW)
Arc vectors
Arc center vector (I) is the distance with specified
direction measured from the start point of the arc
to the center of the arc parallel to the X axis
Arc center vector (J) is the distance with specified
direction measured from the start point of the arc
to the center of the arc parallel to the Y axis
Arc center vector (K) is the distance with specified
direction measured from the start point of the arc
to the center of the arc parallel to the Z axis
The I, J, K vectors are included in the circular block
command and relative to the motion ( +ve or ve)
