2.4.4 Reciprocal Movement and Feed Movement
Operation of slave axes are classified into “reciprocal operation” and “feed operation” by the
difference of CAM table shape.
(1) Reciprocal Operation
If the start point displacement (displacement at phase 0) and the end point displacement
(displacement at the maximum phase) are the same, the slave axis performs “reciprocal operation.”
