Consequently, only one of the two programming options may be used in a block.
point and basic circle, interpolation takes place between the two involutes defined by the
starting and end points (see following figure).
The maximum deviation of the end point is determined by a machine data (→ machine
manufacturer). If the deviation of the programmed end point in the radial direction is
greater than that by the MD, then an alarm is generated and the program processing
aborted.
