Description
PTP and PTPG0
PTPG0 is considered for all transformations that can process PTP. PTPG0 is not relevant is all
other cases.
G0 blocks are processed in CP mode.
The selection of
PTP or PTPG0 is performed in the parts program or by the deselection of CP
in the machine data $MC_GCODE_RESET_VALUES[48].
CAUTION
Restrictions
With regard to tool motions and collision, a number of restrictions and certain function
exclusions apply, such as:
no tool radius compensation (TRC) may be active with
PTP.
With
PTPG0, for active tool radius compensation (TRC), is traversed by CP.
PTP does not permit smooth approach and retraction (SAR).
With
PTPG0, CP traversal is used for smooth approach and retraction (SAR).
PTP does not permit cutting cycles (CONTPRON, CONTDCON).
With
PTPG0 cutting cycles (CONTPRON, CONTDCON) are traversed by CP.
Chamfer (
CHF, CHR) and rounding (RND, RNDM) are ignored.
Compressor is not compatible with
PTP and will automatically be deselected in PTP blocks.
An axis superimposing in the interpolation may not change during the PTP section.
If
G643 is specified, an automatic switch to G642 is made after smoothing with axial
accuracy.
For active PTP, the transformation axes cannot be simultaneously positioning axes.

PTP for TRACON:
PTP can also be used with TRACON, provided the first chained transformation supports PTP.
Meaning of STAT= and TU= for TRANSMIT
If a rotary axis is to turn by 180 degrees or the contour for CP passes through the pole,
rotary axes depending on the machine data
$MC_TRANSMIT_POLE_SIDE_FIX_1/2 [48] can be
turned by -/+ 180 degrees and traversed in clockwise or counter-clockwise direction. It can
also be set whether traversal is to go through the pole or whether rotation around the pole is
to be performed.
