  • Page 17 Description 1.5 Coordinate systems Figure 1-3 MCS for grinding (cylindrical grinding machine, surface grinding machine) Figure 1-4 Machine coordinate system The origin of this coordinate system is the machine zero. This point is only a reference point which is defined by the machine manufacturer. It does not have to be approachable.
  • Page 18 Description 1.5 Coordinate systems Workpiece coordinate system (WCS) To describe the geometry of a workpiece in the workpiece program, a right-handed, right- angled coordinate system is also used. The workpiece zero can be freely selected by the programmer in the Y axis. In the Z axis, it lies in the turning center.
  • Page 19 Description 1.5 Coordinate systems Clamping the workpiece For machining, the workpiece is clamped on the machine. The workpiece must be aligned such that the axes of the workpiece coordinate system run in parallel with those of the machine. Any resulting offset of the machine zero with reference to the workpiece zero is determined along the Y axis and entered in a data area intended for the settable work offset.
