Programmable rotation: ROT, AROT
Fu n ctionality
The rotation is performed in the current plane G17 or G18 or G19 using the value of RPL=... specified in degrees.
ROT RPL=...
; Programmable rotation, deletes old instructions for offsetting, rotation, scaling factor, mirroring
AROT RPL=...
; Programmable rotation, additive to existing instructions
; Without values: clears old instructions for offset, rotation, scaling factor, mirroring
The instructions which contain ROT or AROT each require a separate block.
See the following illustration for definition of the positive direction of the angle of rotation in the individual planes:
See the following illustration for programming example for programmable offset and rotation:
; Subroutine call; contains the geomet ry to be offset
; Additive 45 degree rotation
; Offset and rotation cleared
Subroutine call - see Section "Subroutine technique (Page 132)".
