Reference systems
For the control to traverse an axis according to 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 unidimensional 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 the
space
, the control requires three axes
and therefore a reference system with three dimensions. If these
three axes are configured perpendicular to each other this creates a
so-called
three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system
.
According to the right-hand rule the fingertips point in
the positive directions of the three main axes.
For a point to be uniquely determined in space, a
coordinate origin
is needed in addition to the configuration 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
.
The control must differentiate between various reference systems
for it to always perform a tool change at the same position for
example, or carry out a machining operation always related to the
current workpiece position.
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

Workpiece coordinate system W-CS:
W

C

S
ystem
Working plane coordinate system WPL-CS:
W

S
ystem
Input coordinate system I-CS:
I
nput
C
oordinate
S
ystem
Tool coordinate system T-CS:
T

C

S
ystem
All reference systems build up on each other. They are
subject to the kinematic chain of the specific machine
tool.
The machine coordinate system is the reference
system.
