M1: Kinematic transformation
6.3 TRACYL cylinder surface transformation (option)
Extended Functions
376 Function Manual, 03/2013, 6FC5397-1BP40-3BA1
Meaning
TRACYL(<d>): Activate TRACYL with TRACYL data set 1 and working diameter d
TRACYL(<d>, <n>): Activate TRACYL with TRACYL data set n and working diameter d
Reference or working diameter. <d>:
Range of values: >1
TRACYL data set number (optional) <n>:
Range of values: 1, 2
<k>: The parameter is only relevant for transformation type 514 (optional).
• k = 0: without groove side correction
• k = 1: with groove side correction
If the parameter is not specified, then the parameterized basic position
applies: $MC_TRACYL_DEFAULT_MODE_<n>
6.3.4 Deactivation
A TRACYL transformation active in the channel is switched-off with:
● Deactivate transformation:
TRAFOOF
● Activate another transformation, e.g.
TRAANG, TRANSMIT, TRAORI
6.3.5 Boundary conditions
Selection/deselection
● An intermediate motion block is not inserted (phases/radii).
● A series of spline blocks must be concluded.
● Tool radius compensation must be deselected.
● The frame which was active prior to
TRACYL is deselected by the control system (analog
G500).
● An active working area limit is deselected for axes affected by the transformation (analog
WALIMOF).
● Continuous path control and rounding are interrupted.
● DRF offsets must have been deleted by the operator.
● The Y axis used for the compensation should be set to zero for selection and active
groove side compensation.
Tool change
Tools can be changed only when the tool radius compensation function is deselected.
