Generic transformation

Generic transformation

Function

Generic transformation is used to define any tool orientation in space with the initial state of the axes, and not just according to the Z direction. The transformation can then be used much more flexibly and universally. It is then also possible to control machine kinematics by the CNC, where the orientation of the rotary axes is not precisely in parallel to the linear axes.

Generic 5-axis transformation is an extension of the 3-axis and/or 4-axis transformation, i.e., it can also be used for machines with only one rotary axis, e.g. rotatable tool or workpiece.

Benefits

• Orientation of the tool in space can be arbitrarily defined
