Gantry operation

For gantry axes special functions for the monitoring of the deviation of the axes positions and special procedures for the compensation of this deviations are active. The static (or mechanical) gantry operation is defined by the configuration, because based on the construction of the machine the axes are fixed coupled. The dynamic (or programmable) gantry operation is defined within the part program. The axis parameters listed in the following table must be set dependent on the gantry operation type:
