6.INTERPOLATION FUNCTION B-63943EN-1/02
- 678 -
CAUTION
5 During the polygon synchronization mode, no command cannot be executed for the
polygon synchronization axis.
During the polygon synchronization mode, the spindle orientation function cannot
be used for either the master axis and polygon synchronization axis. Therefore,
gear, tool or workpiece change is basically unusable during the polygon
synchronization mode.
6 During polygon synchronization mode, speed change and phase adjustment are
performed each time the spindle speed is changed. Therefore, this mode cannot be
used together with a function that causes continuous spindle speed change (such
as G96 constant surface speed control)
7 During the polygon synchronization mode, the rotation ratio between the master
axis and polygon synchronization axis is controlled with priority. Therefore, the
difference between the master axis speed and S command value may become
larger than during ordinary spindle control.
Note
NOTE
1 During the polygon synchronization mode, phase control is performed in the least
command increment of 36/4096 = 0.08789...(degrees) in reference to the
one-rotation signal for each spindle. A setting less that the least command
increment is actually invalid.
Since phase control covers relative phase of both spindles within a turn, a setting
greater than 360 degrees has no meaning.
This function does not limit the range of valid R settings. A setting greater than 360
degrees is assumed as the remainder of division by 360.
2 This function cannot be used with polygon turning.
