Reference systems
For the control to move an axis in accordance with a defined path, it
requires a reference system .
A paraxially mounted linear encoder on a machine tool serves
as a simple reference system for linear axes. The linear encoder
represents a number ray , a one-dimensional coordinate system.
To approach a point on the plane , the control requires two axes and
therefore a reference system with two dimensions.
To approach a point in
space , the control requires three axes and
therefore a reference system with three dimensions. If these three
axes are arranged perpendicularly to each other, this creates a
three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system .
According to the right-hand rule the fingertips point in the
positive directions of the three principal axes.
For a point to be uniquely determined in space, a coordinate origin
is needed in addition to the arrangement of the three dimensions.
The common intersection serves as the coordinate origin in a 3-D
coordinate system. This intersection has the coordinates X+0 , Y+0 ,
and Z+0 .
In order, for example, for the control to always perform a tool
change at the same position, as well as always execute a machining
operation referenced to the current workpiece position, the control
must be able to differentiate between different reference systems.
The control differentiates between the following reference systems:
Machine coordinate system M-CS:
M achine C oordinate S ystem
Basic coordinate system B-CS:
B asic C oordinate S ystem
Workpiece coordinate system W-CS:
W orkpiece C oordinate S ystem
Working plane coordinate system WPL-CS:
W orking Pl ane C oordinate S ystem
Input coordinate system I-CS:
I nput C oordinate S ystem
Tool coordinate system T-CS:
T ool C oordinate S ystem
All reference systems build upon each other. They are
subject to the kinematic chain of the specific machine
tool.
The machine coordinate system is the reference system.
