Input parameters

Rot. angle main coordinate plane?:
Rotary angle
EULPR
around the Z axis (see figure at top right). Note:
Input range: –180.0000° to 180.0000°
The 0° axis is the X axis.
8
Tilting angle tool axis?:
Tilting angle EULNUT of the
coordinate system around the X axis shifted by the
precession angle (see figure at center right). Note:
Input range: from 0° to 180.0000°
The 0° axis is the Z axis.
8
ROT angle of the tilted plane?
: Rotation EULROT of
the tilted coordinate system around the tilted Z axis
(corresponds to a rotation with Cycle 10 ROTATION).
Use the rotation angle to simply define the direction
of the X axis in the tilted machining plane (see figure
at bottom right). Note:
Input range: from 0° to 360.0000°
The 0° axis is the X axis.
