Figure 1-1 FRAME components
A FRAME consists of the following components:
FRAME components Programmable with:
Rough offset
TRANS
ATRANS (additive translation component)
CTRANS (zero offset for multiple axes)
G58 (axial zero offset)
Offset
Fine offset
CFINE
G59 (axial zero offset)
Rotation ROT / ROTS
AROT / AROTS
CROTS
Scaling
SCALE
ASCALE
Mirroring
MIRROR
AMIRROR
Features in relation to axes
The rough and fine offsets, scaling and mirroring can be programmed for geometry and
special axes. A rotation can also be programmed for geometry axes.
