Multiple-axis machining | The PLANE function: Tilting the working plane (option 8)
Refer to your machine manual.
The machine tool builder configures the behavior of the
control with vectors that are not perpendicular.
Alternatively to generating the default error message, the
control can correct (or replace) the base vector that is not
perpendicular. This correction (or replacement) does not
affect the normal vector.
Default correction behavior of the control if the base
vector is not perpendicular:
The base vector is projected along the normal vector
onto the working plane (defined by the normal vector).
Correction behavior of the control if the base vector is not
perpendicular and too short, parallel or antiparallel to the
normal vector:
If the normal vector has no X component, the base
vector corresponds to the original X axis
If the normal vector has no Y component, the base
vector corresponds to the original Y axis
