6.4 Programmable rotation (ROT, AROT, RPL)
Fundamentals
6-14 Programming Manual, 10.2004 Edition, 6FC5 298-7AB00-0BP1
Programming
ROT X… Y… Z… Substituting instruction for rotation in space
Or
ROT RPL=… Substituting instruction for rotation in the plane
Or
AROTX… Y… Z… Additive instruction for rotation in space
Or
AROT RPL=… Additive instruction for rotation in the plane
Each instruction must be programmed in a separate NC block.
Parameters
ROT, Absolute rotation with reference to the currently valid
workpiece zero set with G54 to G599
RPL, Rotation in the plane: Angle, through which the coordinate
system is rotated (plane set with G17-G19). The order, in
which the rotation should be performed can be defined via
machine data. RPY notation is the default setting (= roll,
pitch, yaw) with Z,Y,X
AROT, Additive rotation with reference to the currently valid set or
programmed zero point
X Y Z Rotation in space: geometry axes, around which the rotation
takes place
