RPL: Rotation around the geometry axis perpendicular to the active plane (G17, G18,
G19) by the specified angle
Reference
frame:
Programmable frame $P_PFRAME
Reference point: Zero point of the current workpiece coordinate system set
with G54 ... G57, G505 ... G599
<Angle> Angle specification in degrees.
Value range: -360° ≤ angle ≤ 360°
Examples
Example 1: Rotation in the G17 plane

With this workpiece, the shapes
shown recur in a program. In addition
to the work offset, rotations have to
be performed, as the shapes are not
arranged paraxially.
