14.7.1.6 Switch and parallel switch
In the "Switch" window, you specify which of the following elements can be switched on or off
in an active kinematic chain.
Display in the tree topology
Switching elements are identified by this symbol in the tree topology.
Element values
Parameter Meaning
Name Designation, which is displayed in the tree structure.
Number Index of the switch in a kinematic chain (default = -1, the switch is
switched on constantly).
Position Value at which the switch is to be switched on.

14.7.2 Protection areas
14.7.2.1 Creating protection areas
● At locations where there are machine components, e.g. table or spindle in the machining
area, machine protection areas are defined.
● At the positions where tools can be in the collision space, tool protection areas
(e.g. for a turning tool of the cutting part, i.e. the cutting edge) are created and defined.
Note
Tool carriers are not modeled
Tool carriers, clamping or cutting edge holders are not emulated in the machine modeling and
are not checked for collision.
Precondition
● The option is set
● Machine data is set
● A kinematic chain has been created
Collision avoidance
