Positioning a turret magazine.
The CNC allows positioning the turret in a particular position whether there is a tool in the
indicated position or not. If the selected position contains a tool, the CNC assumes it as
programmed tool; otherwise, the CNC assumes T0.
Programming.
When programming this instruction, you must define the magazine number and the position
to be selected on the turret. The new position of the turret may be defined either
incrementally, defining the number of positions to rotate and the rotating direction, or
absolutely, defining the position to reached.
The programming format is the following; the list of arguments appears between curly
brackets and the optional ones between angle brackets
#ROTATEMZ{mz} P{pos}
#ROTATEMZ{mz} {±n}
{mz} Magazine number.
{pos} Absolute turret position.
{±n} Number of positions to rotate; the sign indicates the rotating direction, positive or
negative. If only the sign is programmed, the turret rotates one position.
#ROTATEMZ1 P5
(Absolute position; select position 5).
#ROTATEMZ2 +3
(Incremental positioning; rotate the turret 3 positions in positive direction).
#ROTATEMZ1 -7
(Incremental positioning; rotate the turret 7 positions in negative direction).
#ROTATEMZ2 +
(Incremental positioning; rotate the turret 1 position in positive direction).
#ROTATEMZ1 -
(Incremental positioning; rotate the turret 1 position in negative direction).
