3.7 Generic 5-axis transformation and variants3.7.1 FunctionalityScope of functionsThe scope of functions of generic 5-axis transformation covers implemented 5-axistransformations (see Section "5-axis transformation (Page 145)") for perpendicular rotary axesas well as transformations for the cardan milling head (one rotary axis parallel to a linear axis,the second rotary axis at any angle to it, see Section "Cardan milling head (Page 167)").ApplicationsIn certain cases, it may not be possible to compensate the conventional transformationmachine accuracy, e.g. if:● the rotary axes are not exactly mutually perpendicular or● one of the two rotary axes is not positioned exactly parallel to the linear axesIn such cases, generic 5-axis transformation can produce better results.Programming examplefor generic 5-axis transformation is shown in Section "Example for Generic 5-axisTransformation".ActivationGeneric 5-axis transformation can also be activated like any other orientation transformationusing the TRAORI() or TRAORI(n) command (where n is the number of the transformation).Furthermore, the basic transformation can be transferred in the call in three other parameters,e.g. TRAORI(1, 1.1, 1.5, 8.9).A transformation can be deselected implicitly by selecting another transformation or explicitlywith TRAFOOF.F2: Multi-axis transformations3.7 Generic 5-axis transformation and variantsTransformations172 Function Manual, 06/2019, A5E47435470B AA
