Transverse Axes (P1)
16
16.1 Transverse axis definition
Geometry axis as transverse axis
The geometry axis X is defined as a transverse axis. The transverse axis is important for
lathe functions.
16.2 Diameter programming
Activation and deactivation
The diameter or radius can be programmed for transverse axes.
Program commands "DIAMON" and "DIAMOF" can be used to activate and deactivate the
diameter programming of a traverse axis. DIAMON and DIAMOF belong to G group 29 and
are modal.
JOG mode
If DIAMON is active, then the increments entered for machine functions INC (incremental
dimension) and handwheel traverse in JOG are interpreted and traversed as diameter values
for the associated transverse axis (traversal in WCS with this axis).
Setpoint / actual value display
If the "DIAMON" function is activated for a transverse axis, then the position, distancetogo
and REPOS offset are displayed in the diameter when the workpiece coordinate system
(WCS) is selected.
The display is always in the radius in the machine coordinate system (MCS).
Offsets
All offsets (e.g. tool offsets, programmable and settable zero offsets) are always entered,
programmed and displayed as radius values (even if they are active in the transverse axis
and command DIAMON is active).
Working area limitation, software limit switches, feed values
This data is always entered, programmed and displayed as radius values.
