Traversing in the non-tilted input coordinate system I-CS with M130

Application

Coordinates of a straight line entered with M130 are in effect in the non-tilted input coordinate system I-CS despite a tilted working plane, such as for retraction.

Description of function

Effect

M130 is in effect blockwise for straight lines without radius compensation and takes effect at the start of the block.

Application example

NC programs contained in this User's Manual are suggestions for solutions. The NC programs or individual NC blocks must be adapted before being used on a machine.

Change the following contents as needed:

  • Tools
  • Cutting parameters
  • Feed rates
  • Clearance height or safe position
  • Machine-specific positions (e.g., with M91)
  • Paths of program calls

Some NC programs depend on the machine kinematics. Adapt these NC programs to your machine kinematics before the first test run.

In addition, test the NC programs using the simulation before the actual program run.

 
Tip

With a program test you determine whether the NC program can be used with the available software options, the active machine kinematics and the current machine configuration.

; Retract in the tool axis

With M130, the control references the coordinates in this NC block to the non-tilted input coordinate system I-CS despite a tilted working plane. That way the control retracts the tool perpendicular to the top edge of the workpiece.

Without M130 the control references the coordinates of the straight line to the tilted I-CS.

Notes

 
Notice
Danger of collision!
The miscellaneous function M130 is in effect only blockwise. The control executes the subsequent machining operations in the tilted working plane coordinate system WPL-CS again. Danger of collision during machining!
  1. Use the simulation to check the sequence and positions

If you combine M130 with a cycle call, the control will interrupt machining with an error message.

Definition

Non-tilted input coordinate system I-CS
In a non-tilted input coordinate system I-CS the control ignores the tilting of the working plane, but does take into account the alignment of the workpiece's upper surface and all active transformations, such as a rotation.
