Example for a machine with a rotary table C and a tilting table
A. Programmed function:
PLANE SPATIAL SPA+0 SPB+45 SPC+0
Limit switch Starting position SEQ Resulting axis position
None A+0, C+0 not prog. A+45, C+90
None A+0, C+0 + A+45, C+90
None A+0, C+0 – A–45, C–90
None A+0, C–105 not prog. A–45, C–90
None A+0, C–105 + A+45, C+90
None A+0, C–105 – A–45, C–90
–90 < A < +10 A+0, C+0 not prog. A–45, C–90
–90 < A < +10 A+0, C+0 + Error message
None A+0, C–135 + A+45, C+90
Selecting the type of transformation (entry optional)
On machines with C-rotary tables, a function is available for
specifying the type of transformation:
COORD ROT specifies that the PLANE function
should only rotate the coordinate system to the
defined tilting angle. The rotary table is not moved;
the compensation is purely mathematical.
TABLE ROT specifies that the PLANE function
should position the rotary table to the defined
tilting angle. Compensation results from rotating
the workpiece.
When the PLANE AXIAL function is used, COORD
ROT and TABLE ROT are nonfunctional.
If you use the
TABLE ROT function in conjunction
with a basic rotation and a tilting angle of 0, then the
TNC tilts the table to the angle defined in the basic
rotation.
