About parameters
(1) Examples of setting parameters
Many parameters are related to this function.
So, using some examples as references would be convenient in setting
parameters for the target machine. The examples follow.
<1> Example of setting parameters for a mixed-type machine
In the machine explained in this example, the first, second, third, fourth,
fifth, and sixth axes are, respectively, X, Y, Z, A, B, and C.
Shown below is an example of setting parameters for a mixed-type
machine.
Rotary axis A is the table rotary axis on the X-axis.
Rotary axis B is the tool rotary axis on the Y-axis.
Z

In the mixed-type machine shown above, if the machine coordinate
system for rotary axis B is at 0 degrees, assume:
Rotary table position = (5.0, 2.0, -15.0)
Intersection offset vector between the tool axis and the tool rotary axis
= (3.0, 0, 2.0)
Tool holder offset value = 2.0
The settings of the parameters for the mixed-type machine stated above
are as follows:
