3.3 Absolute dimension for rotary axes (DC, ACP, ACN)
With the above parameters you can define the desired approach strategy for positioning
rotary axes.
Programming
A=DC(…) B=DC(…) C=DC(…)
Or
A=ACP(…) B=ACP(…) C=ACP(…)
Or
A=ACP(…) B=ACP(…) C=ACP(…)
Parameters
A B C Axis identifier for rotary axis to be traversed
DC Absolute dimensions, approach position directly
ACP Absolute dimensions, approach position in positive
direction
ACN Absolute dimensions, approach position in negative
direction
Example of milling
Machining on a rotary table: The tool is stationary, the table rotates through 270° in
clockwise direction. to produce a circular groove.
