5 AXIS POST

Hello FRIENDS !

 

this macine is 5 axis machine . Its a horizontal machine

 

It has rotary axis A in spindle i.e. at A = 0 its a horizontal machine and at A = -90 its a VMC.

 

its bse rotary table " B" is on x axis table .

what should be primary and secondary axis and its vect and dir ???? I have considerd as below

Kindly let me know..if I am wrong.

mtype : 1 #Machine type (Define base and rotation plane below)

#0 = Table/Table

#1 = Tilt Head/Table

#2 = Head/Head

#3 = Nutator Table/Table

#4 = Nutator Tilt Head/Table

#5 = Nutator Head/Head

 

head_is_sec : 1 #Set with mtype 1 and 4 to indicate head is on secondary

 

#Primary axis angle description (in machine base terms)

#With nutating (mtype 3-5) the nutating axis must be the XY plane

rotaxis1 = vecz #Zero

rotdir1 = vecx #Direction

 

#Secondary axis angle description (in machine base terms)

#With nutating (mtype 3-5) the nutating axis and this plane normal

#are aligned to calculate the secondary angle

rotaxis2 = vecz #Zero

rotdir2 = vecy #Direction

 

Secondly

 

#Axis shift

shft_misc_r : 0 #Read the axis shifts from the misc. reals #### 0

#Part programmed where machine zero location is WCS origin-

#Applied to spindle direction, independent of RA

#Table/Table -

#Offset of tables to secondary axis relative to machine base.

#Tilt Head/Table - Head/Head -

#Part programmed at machine zero location-

#Offset in head based on secondary axis relative to machine base.

#Normally use the tool length for the offset in the tool direction

saxisx : -500 #The axis offset direction? ### 0

saxisy : 0 #The axis offset direction?

saxisz : 378.325 #The axis offset direction?

 

when machine spindle is at centre of rot. of B x axis reading is 500 .

and spidle axis fulcrum length i.e. dist from rotation axis to adapter fitting point. = 378.325

 

whether I am correct???

 

 

 

regards
