Line control
With the line control only tool travel paths which are
parallel to axes and which have programmed infeed
values can be controlled (see figure 64).
The generated work part contours can only be parallel
to axis.
The line control can be applied in cases where machining
is supposed to take place only on planes parallel
to the guideways of the machine, e.g. for simple
plane and straight turning, plane parallel milling or
breakthrough milling where machining takes place in
one direction at a time.
