Path interpolator and axis interpolator

Path interpolator
Every channel has a path interpolator for a wide range of interpolation modes such as linear
interpolation (
Axis interpolator
Each channel has axis interpolators in addition to path interpolators. The maximum number
corresponds to the maximum number of existing channel axes.
If a positioning axis is programmed, an axis interpolator starts in the control with straight line
interpolation
programmed end position of the positioning axis has been reached.
There is no time relationship between the path interpolator and the axis interpolator, nor
between the axis interpolators.
Path control mode (
The programmed end position of a positioning axis has been reached when the end-of-

Interpolation response of path axis in G0

Path axes can be traversed in linear or non-linear interpolation mode in rapid traverse
movement (G0).
Linear interpolation
Properties:
● The path axes are interpolated together.
● The tool movement programmed with
● The rapid traverse velocity is defined separately for each axis in the following machine
● If the rapid traverse movement is executed simultaneously on several axes, the rapid
