If only one axis traverses, it uses its rapid traverse. If two or three axes are traversed simultaneously, the path velocity (e.g. the resulting velocity at the tool tip) must be selected such that the \b\f2 maximum possible path velocity \b0\f1 with consideration of all axes involved results. \par A programmed feedrate (F word) has no meaning for G0. G2/G3 remains active until canceled by another instruction from this G group (G0, G1, G3, ...). \par \par \b\f2\fs22 Programming \par \b0\f1\fs20 G0 X... Y...
