Limiting the path length of motion block (P-CHAN-00457)

P-CHAN-00457

Limiting the path length of motion blocks

Description

This parameter limits the path length of motion blocks.

Motion blocks with a path length greater than the value entered for the parameter are segmented into new motion blocks. The motions blocks then have the maximum specified path length of P-CHAN-00457.

Segmentation only takes place after path-changing functions, e.g.l TRC or Polynomial contouring.

The parameter is limited:

  • if parameter is greater than 0 and less than 10000 (=1mm), P-CHAN-00457 is set to 10000
  • if parameter is greater than 2000000 (=200mm), P-CHAN-00457 is set to 2000000
  • P-CHAN-00457= 0, no effect
