10.8 AXIS-SPECIFIC SCALING (Cycle 26)

With Cycle 26 you can account for shrinkage and oversize factors

for each axis.

The SCALING FACTOR becomes effective as soon as it is defined

in the program. It is also effective in Positioning w/ Manual Data

Input mode of operation. The active scaling factor is shown in the

additional status display.

Program the SCALING cycle once again with a scaling factor of 1

for the same axis.

Coordinate axes sharing coordinates for arcs must be

enlarged or reduced by the same factor.

You can program each coordinate axis with its own axis-

specific scaling factor.

In addition, you can enter the coordinates of a center for

all scaling factors.

The size of the contour is enlarged or reduced with

reference to the center, and not necessarily (as in Cycle

11 SCALING) with reference to the active datum.
