Limitations
- Interference check
In G41.5 or G42.5 mode, an interference check is performed using a
specified position in the workpiece coordinate system and a
compensation vector. The interference check avoidance function
cannot be used.
- Corner arc (G39)
In G41.5 or G42.5 mode, G39 cannot be issued. Otherwise, an alarm
will be issued.
- Manual intervention
In G41.5 or G42.5 mode, manual intervention must not be performed
on the rotation axis.
- Programmable mirror image (G50.1 or G51.1)
The same mirror must be applied to both the linear and rotation axes.
2nd quadrant
1st quadrant
3rd quadrant
4th quadrant
For example, suppose machining on the XY plane using a composite
machine with the tool rotation axis about the X-axis being assumed the
A-axis and the table rotation axis about the Z-axis being assumed the
C-axis.
If the basic figure in the first quadrant is to be converted into the figures
in the second, third, and fourth quadrants using a programmable mirror
image, the programmable mirror image must be used as follows:
XYZ A C
1st quadrant Normal Normal Normal Normal Normal
2nd quadrant Mirror Normal Normal Normal Mirror centered on 0 degrees
3rd quadrant Mirror Mirror Normal Mirror centered on 0 degrees Mirror centered on 0 degrees
4th quadrant Normal Mirror Normal Mirror centered on 0 degrees Normal
