Configuration of "plane" type axes. Arc programming.
Programming the arc center I K depends on the active work plane.
• With function G18, in circular interpolations, the arc center I is associated with the first
axis of the channel (usually X) and K with the second axis of the channel (usually Z).
• With function G20, in circular interpolations, the arc center I is associated with the
abscissa axis (usually Z) and K with the ordinate axis of the channel (usually X).
Configuration of "plane" type axes. The longitudinal axis.
In this configuration, the second axis of the channel is considered as longitudinal axis. If the
X (first axis of the channel) and Z (second axis of the channel) axes have been defined, the
work plane will be the ZX and Z will be the longitudinal axis. Tool length compensation is
applied on this longitudinal axis when using milling tools. With lathe tools, tool length
compensation is applied on all the axes where a tool offset has been defined.
When using milling tools on a lathe, the longitudinal compensation axis may be changed by
means of the #TOOLAX instruction or the G20 function.
Configuration of "plane" type axes. Axis swapping.
The axes may be swapped, but it must be borne in mind that the previous behavior stays
the same for the first and second axes of the channel resulting from the swap.
