Risk of collision
You must select a retraction position that avoids a collision between the tool and workpiece
when swiveling.
Swivel plane (only for G code programming)
● New
P revious swivel frames and programmed frames are deleted and a new swivel frame is
formed according to the values specified in the input screen.
Every main program must begin with a swivel cycle with the new swivel plane, in order to
ensure that a swivel frame from another program is not active.
● Additive
T he swivel frame is added to the swivel frame from the last swivel cycle.
If several swivel cycles are programmed in a program and programmable frames are also
active between them (e.g., AROT ATRANS), these are taken into account in the swivel
frame.
If the currently active WO contains rotations, e.g., due to previous workpiece measuring
operations, they will be taken into account in the swivel cycle.
Swivel mode
Swiveling can either be realized axis-by-axis, using the angle in space, using the projection
angle or directly. The machine manufacturer determines when setting up the "Swivel
plane/swivel tool" function which swivel methods are available.
● Axis by axis
In the case of axis-by-axis swiveling, the coordinate system is rotated about each axis in
turn, with each rotation starting from the previous rotation. The axis sequence can be
freely selected.
● Solid angle
With the solid angle swiveling option, the tool is first rotated about the Z axis and then
about the Y axis. The second rotation starts from the first.
