Reference point of
tool path 2
(∆X
1m
, ∆Z
1m
) are the coordinates of the reference point of tool path 2 on
the workpiece coordinate system of tool post 1. (∆X
2m
, ∆Z
2m
) are the
coordinates of the reference point of tool post 1 on the workpiece
coordinate system of tool path 2.
∆X
1m
is specified for the X–axis of tool post 1 and ∆X
2m
for the X–axis
of tool post 2.
If bit 4 of parameter No.8162 MPMx is set to 1 when composite control
is started, the workpiece coordinate system satisfying the following
conditions is specified:
X
1
= (Value specified for the X–axis of tool post 1)
" (Machine coordinate of X
2
)
Plus when parameter No.8162 MCDx of tool
post 1 is set to 0
Minus when parameter No.8162 MCDx of tool
post 1 is set to 1
X
2
= (Value specified for the X–axis of tool post 2)
" (Machine coordinate of X
1
)
Plus when parameter No.8162 MCDx of tool
post 2 is set to 0
Minus when parameter No.8162 MCDx of tool
post 2 is set to 1
