Compensations (K3)
5.4 Interpolatory compensation
compensation of the X1 axis is dependent both on the position of the X1 axis itself (since this
determines angle of inclination b) and on the height of the boring mill (i.e. the position of the
Z1 axis).
To implement compensation, the compensation values of the X1 and Z1 axes must be
multiplied according to the following equation:
ΔX1 = Z1 * sinβ(X1) ≈ Z1 * β(X1)
Figure 5-11
Compensation table 1 (table index = 0) describes the reaction of axis X1 on axis X1 (sine of
the position-dependent tilting angle β(X1)).
Compensation table 2 (table index = 1) describes the reaction of axis Z1 on axis X1 (linear).
In table 1, the multiplication of table 1 (index = 0) with table 2 is to be selected:
$AN_CEC_MULT_BY_TABLE[0] = 2

Example: Input of compensation values in a grid structure
The compensation values of the z axis sag on flat bed machines are often measured in
practice at various points as a function of the x and y coordinates. Where such conditions
need to be met, it is useful to enter the measured compensation values according to a grid-
type distribution. The interpolation points with the relevant compensation values are
