RP Retraction plane for face B mm
Positioning angle for machining surface
X0 Reference point for rotation mm
Reference point for rotation
Reference point for rotation
Swivel mode
• axis-by-axis: Swivel coordinate system axis-by-axis
• Solid angle: Swivel via solid angle
• Proj. angle: Swiveling via projection angle
• Direct: Position rotary axes directly
Axis sequence
Sequence of the axes which are rotated around - (only for axis-by-axis swivel
mode)
XYZ or XZY or YXZ or YZX or ZXY or ZYX
The sequence of the axes can be inter-
changed as required using the Select
key.
New zero point of rotated surface
New zero point of rotated surface
New zero point of rotated surface
Note
Other additive transformations can be added to the offsets before (X0, Y0, Z0) or aft
er (X1,
Y1, Z1) swiveling (see Section "Work offsets").
