FUNCTION PARAXCOMP MOVE
Example
13 FUNCTION PARAXCOMP MOVE W
The
PARAXCOMP MOVE
function can be used only in
conjunction with straight-line blocks (
L
)
The control uses the
PARAXCOMP MOVE
function to compensate
for the movement of a parallel axis by performing a compensation
movement in the associated principal axis.
For example, if a parallel-axis movement is performed in
the negative W-axis direction, the principal axis Z is moved
simultaneously in the positive direction by the same value. The
relative distance from the tool to the workpiece remains the same.
Application in gantry-type milling machines: Retract the spindle
sleeve to move the cross beam down simultaneously.

PARAXCOMP
functions permanently using a machine
parameter.
