10.3 Working with the parallel axes U, V and W

Overview

Refer to your machine manual.
Your machine must be configured by the machine
manufacturer if you want to use parallel-axis functions.
The number, designation and assignment of the
programmable axes depend on the machine.
In addition to the principal axes X, Y and Z, the parallel axes U, V and
W are available.
The principal axes and parallel axes are usually assigned to each
other as follows:
Principal axis
X
Y
Z
The control provides the following functions for machining with the
parallel axes U, V and W:
Soft key Function
PARAXCOMP
PARAXMODE
You must deactivate the parallel-axis functions before
switching the machine kinematics.
You can deactivate the programming of parallel axes with
the machine parameter noParaxMode (no. 105413).
