•
The reference spindle for feed programming with floating tapping
(G63, G64, G65) must be set using the SPF command.
•
In the power-on state, the coordinate transformation always applies to
the first spindle. If the transformation is to be applied to a different
spindle, the desired spindle must be selected prior to coordinate
transformation by using the SPC <spindle number> command.
•
The real main axes which are assigned to the fictive axes must not be
programmed during the transformation.
•
G31 coordinate transformation remains modally active until it is can-
celed by G30 or G32, or until it is reset automatically via BST or at the
end of the program (RET).
Note:
When coordinate transformation is active, the CNC employs
axis designation 2 for the two fictitious axes that span the cur-
rent working plane, instead of axis designation 1 which is
stored in the machine parameters.
The machine manufacturer defines the axis designation of the
fictitious axes in the axis parameters.
NOTE
The coordinate transformation function is an option that
requires a special hardware configuration.
All axes that are involved in the coordinate transformation
must be on an APR card.
The real primary axes that are allocated to the fictitious
axes must not be programmed during coordinate trans-
formation.
CAUTION
When the coordinate transformation function is executed
in a machine with a real Y axis, the corresponding proc-
ess must not contain an axis of the axis meaning V.
When the coordinate transformation function is activated,
the CNC automatically triggers a changeover to rotary
axis mode.
When face machining is activated and de-activated, the
CNC de-activates all zero offsets, and sets G53.
If diameter programming (G16) is selected while face ma-
chining is active, the CNC interprets all position values of
the fictitious axis with axis meaning X as a diameter speci-
fication.
Please refer to the „Coordinate transformation function“ description in
Folder 5 for further and supplementary information about face machining.
