6.11 Exponential Function Interpolation; G02.3, G03.3
Function and purpose
Exponential function interpolation changes the rotation axis into an exponential function shape in
respect to the linear axis movement.
At this time, the other axes carry out linear interpolation between the linear axis.
This allows a machining of a taper groove with constant torsion angle (helix angle) (uniform helix
machining of taper shape).
This function can be used for slotting or grinding a tool for use in an end mill, etc.
