- Examples of machine configuration and rotation axis calculation formats
Let Vx, Vy, Vz, Lc, a, b, and c be as follows :
Vx,Vy,Vz : Tool compensation vectors along the X-axis, Y-
axis, and Z-axis
Lc : Offset value
a,b,c : Absolute coordinates on the A-axis, B-axis and C-
axis
Then, the tool compensation vector on each axis in each machine configuration is
indicated below.
(1) A-axis and C-axis, with the tool axis on the Z-axis

Vx = Lc * sin(a) * sin(c)
Vy = -Lc * sin(a) * cos(c)
Vz = Lc * cos(a)
