    Continous 4th axis rotation

    I am looking to turn a simple alumium part or a machining center with a Fanuc 16i control. The rotary table is a full 4th axis. The material is alumium with .010 coming off the I.D.

    Is there a way write code that is not real long to have the rotary table turn at a continous RPM of say 1200 and feed Z-3.00 at a feedrate of .008 I.P.R.?

    Thank You
