9 MAJOR POSITIONING CONTROL
9.2.4 3-axis linear interpolation control
In "3-axis linear interpolation control" ("
Da.2
Control system" = ABS linear 3, INC
linear 3), three motors are used to carry out position control in a linear path while
carrying out interpolation for the axis directions set in each axis.
(Refer to Section 9.1.6 "Interpolation control" for details on interpolation control.)
[1] 3-axis linear interpolation control (ABS linear 3)
Operation chart
In the absolute system 3-axis linear control, using an address established by a
machine OPR in the 3-axis coordinate space, a linear interpolation positioning is
carried out from the current stop position (start point address) to the address (end
point address) set in the "

Example
When the start point address (current stop positon) is (1000, 2000, 1000) and the end point address
(positioning address) is (4000, 8000, 4000), positioning is carried out as follows.
