- When the rotation axes of the table do not intersect
Explained below is a mechanism in which the table rotation centers do
not intersect.
In the mechanism shown in the following example, the master and
slave do not intersect each other. (Fig. 9.1 (f))
When both the master and slave are at 0 degrees, a vector from the
origin of the machine coordinate system to a point on the first rotation
axis is set as a rotary table position in parameters.
Similarly, when both the master and slave are at 0 degrees, a vector
from the above point to a point on the second rotation axis is set as an
intersection offset vector between the first and second rotation axes of
the table in parameters.
