8-35 TNC 360
8 Cycles
8.4 Cycles for Coordinate Transformations
ROTATION (Cycle 10)
Application
Within a program the coordinate system can rotated about the active
datum in the working plane.
Activation
A rotation becomes active as soon as the cycle is defined. This cycle is
also effective in the POSITIONING WITH MANUAL INPUT mode.
Reference axis for the rotation angle:
• X/Y plane X-axis
• Y/Z plane Y-axis
• Z/X plane Z-axis
The active rotation angle is indicated in the status display with ROT.
Input data
The angle of rotation is entered in degrees (°).
Entry range: –360° to +360° (absolute or incremental)
Cancellation
To cancel a rotation, enter a rotation angle of 0°.
Example: Rotation
A contour (subprogram 1) is to be executed
once – as originally programmed – referenced
to the datum X+0/Y+0 and then executed again
referenced to X+70 Y+60 and rotated by 35°.
