Selecting tilting axes: M138

Standard behavior

The TNC performs M128 and TCPM, and tilts the working plane,
only in those axes for which the machine tool builder has set the
appropriate machine parameters.

Behavior with M138

The TNC performs the above functions only in those tilting axes
that you have defined using M138.

If you restrict the number of tilting axes with the
M138 function, your machine may provide only
limited tilting possibilities.

Effect

M138 becomes effective at the start of block.

You can reset M138 by reprogramming it without entering any
axes.

Example NC blocks

Perform the above-mentioned functions only in the tilting axis C:
