3510
No Machining Cycle Found (Figure Block Only)
Fanuc · Series 0i Manual Guide
What does 3510 mean?
This MC alarm (specific to Series 30i) indicates that the control system could not find a valid machining cycle to execute. This occurs when the machining program specifies only a figure block without the necessary accompanying machining type block, making the intended operation undefined.
Common Causes
- A defined machining shape is present, but no active cutting command follows.
- The program structure lacks the necessary commands for material removal.
- Only geometric data (e.g., G02, G03) was found without a cutting feed (e.g., G01).
- The controller requires a specific block type for machining initiation.
