15.5.2 Coupled motion of punch and die
Function
Using the standard function "Coupled motion", it is possible to assign the axis of the die as a
coupled motion axis to the rotary axis of the punch.
Activation
The "Coupled motion" function is activated or deactivated with language commands TRAILON
and
TRAILOF respectively.

Example
Example of a typical nibbling machine with rotatable punches where C is the punch axis and
C1 the die axis:
:
TRAILON (C1, C, 1) ; Enabling the coupled-motion grouping
G01 X100 Y100 C0 PON ; Initiate stroke with C axis/C1 axis position C=0=C1
X150 C45 ; Initiate stroke with C axis/C1 axis position
C=45=C1
:
M30
Basic position
No coupled-motion groupings are active after power up. Once the two tool axes have
approached the reference point, the coupled-motion grouping is not generally separated
again.
15.5.3 Tangential control
Function
The rotary tool axes on punching/nibbling machines are aligned tangentially to the
programmed path of the master axes by means of the "Tangential control" function.
Activation
The "Tangential control" function is activated and deactivated with language commands
TANGON and TANGOF respectively.
