WORKPIECE HOLDER INTERFERENCE
AVOIDANCE FUNCTION
If the tool is positioned to the normal height (for punching), as shown
below, the tool will interfere with the workpiece holder when the
workpiece holder moves into the turret.
By means of this function, the CNC monitors the positions of the tool and
workpiece holder to avoid interference between the workpiece holder and
tool.
