AXIS POS should be used primarily if your machine
is equipped with Cartesian rotary axes. You can also
use
AXIS POS with 45°-swivel heads/ tilting tables
if it is ensured that the programmed rotary axis
coordinates define the desired orientation of the
working plane correctly (this can be accomplished
with a CAM system, for example).
AXIS SPAT: The rotary axis coordinates entered in
the positioning block are space angles that are given
with respect to the currently active (perhaps tilted)
coordinate system (incremental space angle).
After you switch on
FUNCTION TCPM with AXIS
SPAT, in the first positioning block you should always
program all three spatial angles in the inclination
angle definition. This also applies if one or more
spatial angles are 0°.
AXIS SPAT: The rotary axis
coordinates entered in the positioning block are
space angles that are given with respect to the
currently active (perhaps tilted) coordinate system
(incremental space angle).
