8.4 Cycles for Coordinate Transformations
Coordinate transformations enable a programmed
contour to be changed in its position, orientation or
size. A contour can be:
• shifted (cycle 7 DATUM SHIFT)
• mirrored (cycle 8 MIRROR IMAGE)
• rotated (cycle 10 ROTATION)
• made smaller or larger
(cycle 11 SCALING)
The original contour must be identified as a subpro-
gram or program section.
Activation of coordinate transformation
Immediate activation: A coordinate transformation
becomes effective as soon as it is defined (it does
not have to be called). The transformation remains
effective until it is changed or cancelled.
To cancel a coordinate transformation:
• Define cycle for basic behavior with new values,
such as scaling factor 1.0
• Execute miscellaneous function M02, M30 or
END PGM block (depending on machine para-
meters)
• Select a new program
