Kinematic Transformation (M1)

Note
This function is not available with version T/M value.
12.1

Brief description

Application range
The control transforms programmed traversing instructions from a Cartesian coordinate
system into a real machine axis system.
The TRANSMIT transformation is used for the face-end milling of turned parts on lathes
(without Y machine axis).
The TRACYL transformation is used to machine the peripheral surfaces of cylindrical bodies.
The main application is the milling of grooves. A TRACYL variant is provided for lathes. A
second variant is provided for lathes with an additional Y machine axis or for milling
machines with a suitable rotary table.
Machine prerequisite
The lathe must be equipped with a C axis-capable main spindle. A second spindle must be
able to drive the milling tool. When used with TRACYL, the milling machine must be
equipped with a rotary table that is capable of interpolating with the other axes.
Availability
The TRANSMIT and TRACYL functions are configured using separate machine data sets
and switched on or off by means of special instructions in the program.
With SINUMERIK 802D sl, a maximum of two kinematic transformations (TRANSMIT,
TRACYL) may be configured and one of them may be activated using the program.
