  1. Is a vector-based (G11) from an additive toolpath. I can see the IJK vector in the nci. It corresponds to the Z vector of the Rot Matrix. Although I want to reach at least another vector. The third I can get from through the orthogonality relation between the other two.
  2. Hello, Thank you very much @Colin Gilchrist However, I do not understand why you are saying that the Euler Angles are only needed at the start of the toolpath. In this case, they are not constant along the path and I do not have any parameter updating the Euler Angles/Rotation Matrix visible in the .nci file. Thank you. Best regards, Bernardo Freire
  3. Dear all, Is it possible to calculate the Euler Angles (or the rotation matrix - three (or at least two) vectors defining the tool orientation) from a 5-axis .NCI file? I can reach the tool axis (Z vector) but it is not enough to define the complete matrix, I need at least one more vector. Also, is there some information in the .NCI file that tells me if the machine will privilege the rotary or the linear axis? Thank you in advance. Best regards, Bernardo Freire
