Описание
G2 adds a clockwise arc move to the planner; G3 adds a counter-clockwise arc. An arc move starts at the current position and ends at the given XYZ, pivoting around a center-point offset given by I and J or R.
allows G2/G3 to operate in the selected XY, ZX, or YZ workspace plane.
This command has two forms:
I J Form
- I specifies an X offset. J specifies a Y offset.
- At least one of the I J parameters is required.
- X and Y can be omitted to do a complete circle.
- The given X Y is not error-checked. The arc ends based on the angle of the destination.
- Mixing I or J with R will throw an error.
R Form
- R specifies the radius. X or Y is required.
- Omitting both X and Y will throw an error.
- X or Y must differ from the current XY position.
- Mixing R with I or J will throw an error.
Arc moves actually generate several short straight-line moves, the length of which are determined by the configuration option MM_PER_ARC_SEGMENT (default 1mm). Any change in the Z position is linearly interpolated over the whole arc.
‘ARC_P_CIRCLES’ enables the use of the ‘P’ parameter to specify complete circles

G3 command geometry
This illustrates a counter clockwise arc, starting at [9, 6]. It can be generated either by G3 X2 Y7 I-4 J-3 or G3 X2 Y7 R5
