Overview
All
PLANE functions available on the TNC describe the desired
working plane independently of the rotary axes actually present on
your machine. The following possibilities are available:
Soft key Function Required parameters Page
SPATIAL
Three spatial angles:
SPA, SPB, and SPC 441
PROJECTED Two projection angles:
PROPR and PROMIN
and a rotation angle
ROT
443
EULER Three Euler angles:
precession (
EULPR),
nutation (
EULNU) and
rotation (
EULROT),
444
VECTOR
Normal vector for
defining the plane and
base vector for defining
the direction of the
tilted X axis 446
POINTS Coordinates of any
three points in the
plane to be tilted 448
RELATIVE
Single, incrementally
effective spatial angle 450
AXIAL Up to three absolute or
incremental axis angles
A,B,C 451
