Programming Of The Tool Orientation (A - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Programming Manual

Transformations
6.2 Three, four and five axis transformation (TRAORI)
6.2.4 Programming of the tool orientation (A..., B..., C..., LEAD, TILT)
Function
The following options are available when programming tool orientation:
1. Direct programming the motion of rotary axes. The change of orientation always occurs in
2. Programming in Euler or RPY angles in accordance with angle definition using A2, B2,
3. Programming of the direction vector using A3, B3, C3 The direction vector points from
4. Programming the surface normal vector at the start of the block with A4, B4, C4 and at
5. Programming using lead angle LEAD and tilt angle TILT
6. Programming of rotary axis of taper as normalized vector using A6, B6, C6 or of
7. Programming of reorientation, direction and path length of tool during retraction

Note
In all cases, orientation programming is only permissible if an orientation transformation is
active.
Advantage: These programs can be transferred to any machine kinematics.
