In the case of machine kinematics that move the workpiece (rotary table), the axis direction is
reversed.
Note
Interrelation of TOOLCARRIER ⇔ 5-axis transformation (transformer type 24, 40, 56):
For 5-axis transformation, transformer type 72 in MD24100: $MC_TRAFO_TYPE_1 can be
used.
In the case of transformer type 72, the vectors of the TOOLCARRIER in MD24582:
$MC_TRAFO5_TCARR_NO_1 are used.
