Compensation with Workpiece
Orientation
Function
With peripheral milling, the TNC displaces the tool perpendicular to the
direction of movement and perpendicular to the tool direction by the
sum of the delta values DR (tool table and T block). Determine the
compensation direction with radius compensation G41/G42 (see figure
at right, traverse direction Y+).
For the TNC to be able to reach the set tool orientation, you need to
activate the function M128 (see “Maintaining the position of the tool tip
when positioning with tilted axes (TCPM*):
M128 (software option 2)” on page 214) and subsequently the tool
radius compensation. The TNC then positions the rotary axes
automatically so that the tool can reach the orientation defined by the
coordinates of the rotary axes with the active compensation.
You can define the tool orientation in a G01 block as described below.
Example: Definition of the tool orientation with M128 and the
coordinates of the rotary axes
This function is possible only on machines for which you
can define spatial angles for the tilting axis configuration.
Refer to your machine manual.
The TNC is not able to automatically position the rotary
axes on all machines. Refer to your machine manual.
Danger of collision
On machines whose rotary axes only allow limited
traverse, sometimes automatic positioning can require
the table to be rotated by 180°. In this case, make sure
that the tool head does not collide with the workpiece or
the clamps.
