==
If a frame containing a rotation is programmed, the compensation plane is also rotated with
CUT2DF. The tool radius compensation is calculated in the rotated machining plane.
Note
The tool length compensation continues to be active relative to the non-rotated working
plane.
8.14 Tool length compensation for orientable toolholders (TCARR,
TCOABS, TCOFR)
Function
When the spatial orientation of the tool changes, its tool length components also change.
