3-axis helical interpolation control with sub point designation (INC helical sub)
■Operation chart
In the incremental system and 3-axis helical interpolation control with sub point designation, the positioning is performed from
the current stop position (X0, Y0, Z0) to the position (X1, Y1, Z1) for the movement amount set in "[Da.6] Positioning address/
movement amount". As the positioning to the commanded position, the linear interpolation with the other linear interpolation
axes is performed and the positioning target is rotated helically for the number of pitches set in "[Da.10] M code/Condition
data No./Number of LOOP to LEND repetitions/Number of pitches" of the linear interpolation axis while the circular
interpolation through the sub point address (sub point address) set in "[Da.7] Arc address" is performed. The movement
direction is determined by the sign of the movement amount.
The resulting path is an arc whose center is the intersection point of the perpendicular bisectors of a straight line between the
start point address (current stop position) and the sub point address (arc address) calculated from the movement amount to
the sub point, and a straight line between the sub point address (arc address) and the end point address (positioning address)
calculated from the movement amount to the end point.

■Restrictions
In the following cases, the 3-axis helical interpolation control cannot be set.
• When "degree" is set in "[Pr.1] Unit setting" of the reference axis and circular interpolation axis
• When the units set in "[Pr.1] Unit setting" are different between the reference axis and circular interpolation axis (The
combination of "mm" and "inch" is possible.)
• When "reference axis speed" is set in "[Pr.20] Interpolation speed designation method"
• When the value out of the range of "0 to 999" is set in the number of pitches ("[Da.10] M code/Condition data No./Number
of LOOP to LEND repetitions/Number of pitches")
An error will occur and the positioning will not start in the following cases. The machine will immediately stop if the error is
detected during a positioning control.
