Insert chamfers using G301 as example

With G301 the I word defines the distance between the corner point of the programmed contour and each intersecting point between the inserted straight lines and the contour elements. If one or both the contour elements are arcs, this distance is considered as chord length.

If a given size of the insertion radius or the chamfer results in a direction reversal of one or both contour elements, an error message is output.
