Machine data
2.2 General machine data
Description: List of the machine axis identifiers
The name of the machine axis is entered in this MD.
In addition to the fixed, defined machine axis identifiers "AX1", "AX2" ...,
user-defined identifiers for the machine axes can also be assigned in this
data.
The identifiers defined here can be used parallel to the fixed, defined iden-
tifiers for addressing axial data (e.g. MD) and machine axis-related NC func-
tions (reference point approach, axial measurement, travel to fixed stop).
Special cases:
• The input machine axis name must not conflict with the names and assign-
ments of the geometry axes (MD20060 $MC_AXCONF_GEOAX_NAME_TAB, MD20050
$MC_AXCONF_GEOAX_ASSIGN_TAB) and channel axes (MD20080
$MC_AXCONF_CHANAX_NAME_TAB, MD20070 $MC_AXCONF_MACHAX_USED).
The input machine axis name must not conflict with
Names for Euler angle (MD10620 $MN_EULER_ANGLE_NAME_TAB)
Names for path-relevant orientation (MD10624 $MN_ORIPATH_LIFT_VECTOR_TAB)
Names for normal vectors (MD10630 $MN_NORMAL_VECTOR_NAME_TAB)
Names for direction vectors (MD10640 $MN_DIR_VECTOR_NAME_TAB)
Names for rotation vectors (MD10642 $MN_ROT_VECTOR_NAME_TAB)
Names for intermediate vector component (MD10644 $MN_INTER_VECTOR_NAME_TAB)
Names for intermediate circle point coordinates for CIP (MD10660
$MN_INTERMEDIATE_POINT_NAME_TAB)
Names for interpolation parameters (MD10650 $MN_IPO_PARAM_NAME_TAB).
• The input machine axis name must not include any of the following
reserved address letters:
D Tool offset (D function) E Reserved
F V Feedrate (F function) G Path condition
H Auxiliary function (H function) L Subroutine call
M Miscellaneous function (M function) N Subblock
P Subroutine number of passes R Arithmetic parameters
S Spindle speed (S function) T Tool (T function)
The name must not include any keywords (e.g. DEF, SPOS etc.) or pre-defined
identifiers (e.g. ASPLINE, SOFT).
The use of an axis identifier consisting of a valid address letter (A, B, C,
I, J, K, Q, U, V, W, X, Y, Z), followed by an optional numerical extension
(1-99) gives slightly better block cycle times than a general identifier.
If no identifier is assigned to a machine axis, the predefined name ("AXn")
applies to the nth machine axis).
