ORIPATHS
A8= B8= C8=
X, Y, Z
Note
Programming direction vectors A8, B8, C8
If the length of this vector is exactly zero, no retracting movement is executed.
ORIPATHS
Tool orientation relative to the path is activated using ORIPATHS. The orientation is
otherwise transferred from the start orientation to the end orientation by means of linear
large-radius circular interpolation.
