8-4 Description of Multi-axis Interpolation
M-PLC positioning control is composed by Linear Interpolation, Arc Interpolation and Spiral
Interpolation modes.
The Linear Interpolation provides maximum 4-axis linear interpolation control.
The Arc Interpolation provides maximum 2-axis arc interpolation control.
The Spiral Interpolation provides maximum 3-axis spiral interpolation control.
Listed below is the classification of action mode:

The master axis is the control axis, and the slave axis will move with the position of the main axis. In
the spiral mode, the slave axis 1 is fixed for arc, and the slave axis 2 is fixed for vertical movement.
Under Linear Interpolation Mode, it allows the system to execute single linear action on 4 axes.
