4. Tool radius compensation for rotary table type machine
General
Cutter compensation can be performed for a 5-axis machine having a rotary table as
shown in the figure below.
Shown below is a 5-axis machine that has table rotation axis A on the X-axis and
table rotation axis B on the Y-axis.
This machine configuration is used as a sample configuration in the
following explanation unless otherwise noted:

Workpiece coordinate system
shows the direction in which the machine moves.
The table coordinate system rotates with the rotation of the
table. Part programs are created in the workpiece coordinate
system.
