Defining the working plane with the spatial angle:
PLANE SPATIAL

Application

Spatial angles define a working plane using up to three rotations

of the coordinate system; two perspectives that have always the

same result are available for this purpose.

Rotations about the machine-based coordinate system:

The

sequence of the rotations is first around the machine axis C,

then around the machine axis B, and then around the machine

axis A.

Rotations about the respectively tilted coordinate system:

The sequence of rotations is first around the machine axis C,

then around the rotated axis B, and then around the rotated axis

A. This perspective is usually easier to understand, because

one rotary axis is fixed so that the rotations of the coordinate

system are easier to comprehend.

Before programming, note the following

You must always define the three spatial angles

SPA,

SPB, and SPC, even if one of them = 0.
This operation corresponds to Cycle19 if the entries

in Cycle 19 are defined as spatial angles on the

machine side.
Parameter description for the positioning behavior:

See "Specifying the positioning behavior of the

PLANE function", page 371.
