aims Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Hi, I would like to draw a circle on X and Y axis. I am using PMAC2-PC104. I study in the manual there is circle1 and cirlce2 command. I set i13=5; I came accros this 2 command but I dont have any idea how to draw a 2mm circle. X{} Y{} I{} J{} X{} Y{} R{} sqr(X) + sqr(y) = sqr®. I dont what is the value of X and Y that could give me R value 2. In short, I need X and Y to have circular move that give me 2mm radius of circle Please help me. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregs Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Try these motion program commands: Normal K-1 ; Define XY plane Inc(X,Y) ; Specify endpoint incrementally Inc( R ) ; Specify circle center incrementally Circle1 ; Specify Circle mode clockwise (Circle2 for counterclock) X0 Y0 I-2 ; Full circle with 2 mm radius, center at -2mm in X from start/stop point See attached examples from a slide in the Turbo class presentation.
