6.12 Machine Kinematics (Up to NC Software 548 328-02)
Machine parameters in the control describe the machine kinematics. It is a
precondition that the kinematic models consist of translation axes and rotation
axes which are linked to each other. This structure can also be used for
configuring axes that are not perpendicular with respect to each other.
Multiple sets of kinematics can be configured for one machining channel.
Multiple sets of kinematics are needed, for example, if the spindle and C axis
on a lathe are driven by the same motor.
After control startup, the last kinematics model entered in CfgKinModel will
be active. If required, activate another kinematics model.
The prepared, standard machine kinematics of the MANUALplus 620
include all common lathe applications. If adjustments of the machine
kinematics are nevertheless required, you will find all necessary
information in the following sections.
The KinematicsDesign software for PCs cannot be used in conjunction
with the old kinematics model described below.
