Angle (degrees)

Angle of rotation (in degrees) about the Rotary axis.

Example:

Given

• Rotation about the z-axis

• The x-axis points to the right, and the y-axis points downwards. The viewing direction is against the rotary axis (right-hand rule).

For a negative value, rotation is performed clockwise. For a positive value, rotation is performed counterclockwise.

Axis of rotation

Selecting a rotary axis is possible only if the elements of the CNC path are all 3D elements.

No selection if the CNC path of one of the following elements includes:

• G5 spline

• Parabola

• ellipse

• 2D arc

The rotary axis is defined by the parameters X, Y, and Z.

Preset: X: 0, Y: 0, Z: 1 --> rotation about the z-axis.

X

Preset: 0.00000

Y

Preset: 0.00000

Z

Preset: 1.00000

OK

The rotation is executed. The block numbers are assigned automatically.
