Machining direction
The contour table generated using CONTDCON is used for stock removal in the programmed
direction of the contour.
3.24.4 Determine point of intersection between two contour elements (INTERSEC)
INTERSEC determines the point of intersection of two normalized contour elements from the
contour tables generated using CONTPRON.
Syntax
<Status>=INTERSEC(<contour table_1>[<contour element_1>],
<contour table_2>[<contour element_2>],<intersection
point>,<machining type>)
Meaning
INTERSEC: Predefined function to determine the point of intersection between
two contour elements from the contour tables generated
with CONTPRON
<Status>: Variable for the point of intersection status
Type: BOOL
Value: TRUE Point of intersection found
FALSE No intersection found
<contour table_1>: Name of the first contour table
<contour element_1>: Number of the contour element of the first contour table
<contour table_2>: Names of the second contour table
<contour element_2>: Number of the contour element of the second contour table
<point of intersection>: Intersection coordinates in the active plane (G17 / G18 / G19)
Type: REAL
<machining type>: Parameter for the machining type
Type: INT
Value: 0 Point of intersection calculation in the active
plane with parameter 2
(standard value)
1 Point of intersection calculation independent of
the transferred plane
Note
Please note that the variables must be defined before they are used.
