Chapter 9 NC Control Function
The parameters related to the tool length compensation are shown below.
Group name and parameter name
* The parameter related to the tool length compensation amount is "tool length
compensation amount 1 ~ length compensation amount 128".
17) Local coordinate system setting (G52)
G52: Local coordinate system setting
The local coordinate system is the coordinate system that sets and uses the reference point at an arbitrary point
based on the set workpiece coordinate system when creating the program by the workpiece coordinate system.
With the local coordinate system command, the new coordinate system, namely, the local coordinate system can
be set in all workpieces coordinate systems (G54 to G59). The origin of each local coordinate system is the
X_Y_Z_ locations specified by each workpiece coordinate system. The local coordinate system is cleared to 0
when a new workpiece coordinate system is set.
