Coordinate Transformation Cycles

AXIS-SPECIFIC SCALING (Cycle 26)

Application

Each coordinate axis can be programmed with its
own axis-specific scaling factor. In addition, the
coordinates of a center can be programmed for all
scaling factors. The size of the contour is enlarged
or reduced with reference to the center, and not
necessarily – as in cycle 11 SCALING FACTOR –
with reference to the active datum.

Activation

The cycle becomes effective immediately upon
definition in part programming.

Input data

• AXIS AND SCALING FACTOR:

Coordinate axis/axes as well as factor(s) involved
in enlarging or reducing the size of a contour by
axis-specific scaling. The factor is entered as a
positive value of up to 99.999 999

• CENTER COORDINATES:

Center of the axis-specific enlarging or reducing
cycle

Coordinate axes are selected using the soft keys.

Cancellation

The scaling factor is cancelled by entering factor 1
for the same axis.

Coordinate axes sharing coordinates for arcs must be enlarged or reduced by the same scaling factor.

Example:

Axis-specific scaling factors in the machining plane

Preset: Quadrangle (see Fig. 8.53)

Corner 1:

X = 20 mm

Y =

2.5mm

Corner 2:

X = 32.5mm

Y = 15 mm

Corner 3:

X = 20 mm

Y = 27.5mm

Corner 4:

X =

7.5mm

Y = 15 mm

• Enlarge X axis by factor 1.4
• Reduce Y axis by factor 0.6
• Center at CCX = 15 mm CCY = 20 mm
