Work preparation
3.16 Axis couplings
Requirement
The MD must be configured accordingly to ensure that sufficient memory space is reserved for
the definition of curve tables (→ machine manufacturer).

Start of curve table definition
End of curve table definition
Axis whose motion is to be calculated using the curve table
Axis providing the master values for the calculation of the following axis motion
Number (ID) of curve table
The number of a curve table is unique and independent of the memory loca‐
tion. It is not possible for there to be tables with the same number in the static
and dynamic NC memory.
Table periodicity
Table is non-periodic (table is processed only once, even for rotary
0
axes)
Table is periodic with regard to the leading axis
1
Table is periodic with regard to leading axis and following axis
