When interpolating block
N40, the angle of rotation from initial value of 0 degrees to final value of 90 degrees is
interpolated linearly. In block N50, the angle of rotation changes from 90 degrees to 180
degrees, according to parabola θ(u) = +90u
2
. In N60, a rotation can also be executed
without a change in orientation taking place.
With N80, the tool orientation is rotated from the Y direction toward the X direction. The
change in orientation takes place in the X/Y plane and the rotation vector describes an angle
of 30 degrees to this plane.
Description
ORIROTA
The angle of rotation THETA is interpolated with reference to an absolute direction in space.
The basic direction of rotation is defined in the machine data.
ORIROTR
The angle of rotation THETA is interpreted relative to the plane defined by the start and end
orientation.
