4.1.2 Example of orientational toolholders with rotary table
Use of the MOV command
For use of the MOVT command it is assumed that the program is running on a
5-axis machine, on which the tool rotates about the Y axis in case of a rotation of the B axis:
N10 TRAORI()
N20 X0 X0 Z0 B45 F2000 ; Setting the tool orientation
N30 MOVT=-10 ; Infeed movement 10 mm in tool
direction
; (under 45 degrees in the Y-Z plane)
N40 MOVT=AC(20) ; Retraction in tool direction at
distance of
; 20 mm from the zero point
Machine with rotary table
Complete definition for the use of a toolholder with orientation capability with rotary table:
N10 $TC_DP1[1,1]= 120
N20 $TC_DP3[1,1]= 13 ; Tool length 13 mm
; Definition of toolholder 1:

N130 $TC_CARR11[1] = 1 ; Y component of 2nd axis
N140 $TC_CARR12[1] = 0 ; Z component of 2nd axis
N150 $TC_CARR13[1] = 30 ; Angle of rotation of 1st axis
N160 $TC_CARR14[1] =-30 ; Angle of rotation of 2nd axis
