Selection of the plane (P-CHAN-00050)
With this parameter the main plain of the machine coordinate system is selected in which this second ECS-axis shall be laying.
Variable name | Type | Permitted range | Dimension |
mach_plane_of_2nd_ecs_ax | String | „XY“, „xy“, „ZX“, „zx“, „YZ“, „yz“ | ---- |
The direction of the second and third axis is calculated in a way, that the result is a right-handed system. In this case the third axis is always on the same side of the plane like the Z (effector) axis.
The following 2 examples show the correct settings of P-CHAN-00031 and P-CHAN-00050.
Examples:
kind_of_2nd_ecs_ax | X |
mach_plane_of_2nd_ecs_ax | XY |
kind_of_2nd_ecs_ax | Y |
mach_plane_of_2nd_ecs_ax | YZ |
