M128 on tilting tables
If you program a tilting table movement while M128 is active, the TNC
rotates the coordinate system accordingly. If, for example, you rotate
the C axis by 90° (through a positioning command or datum shift) and
then program a movement in the X axis, the TNC executes the
movement in the machine axis Y.
The TNC also transforms the defined datum, which has been shifted
by the movement of the rotary table.
M128 with 3-D tool compensation
If you carry out a 3-D tool compensation with active M128 and active
radius compensation RL/RR, the TNC will automatically position the
rotary axes for certain machine geometrical configurations (Peripheral
milling, see "Three-Dimensional Tool Compensation (Software Option
2)", page 482).
