11.2 The PLANE function: Tilting the working
plane (option 8)

Introduction

Refer to your machine manual.
The machine manufacturer must enable the functions for
tilting the working plane!
You can only use the PLANE function in its entirety on
machines having at least two rotary axes (table axes,
head axes or combined axes). The PLANE AXIAL function
is an exception. PLANE AXIAL can also be used on
machines which have only one programmed rotary axis.
The PLANE functions provide powerful options to define tilted
working planes in various ways.
The parameter definition of the PLANE functions is subdivided into
two parts:
The geometric definition of the plane, which is different for each
of the available PLANE functions.
The positioning behavior of the PLANE function, which is
independent of the plane definition and is identical for all PLANE
functions
Further information: "Defining the positioning behavior of the
PLANE function", Page 450
Danger of collision!
When the machine is switched on, the control tries to restore
the switch-off status of the tilted plane. This is prevented under
certain conditions. For example, this applies if axis angles are
used for tilting while the machine is configured with spatial angles,
or if you have changed the kinematics.
If possible, reset tilting before shutting the system down
Check the tilted condition when switching the machine back on
