Path control
In path control it is possible to control any travel paths
(straight, inclines, circular, splines) of the tool applied
on planes or in space.
It is possible to achieve any contour line
(see figure 65) through the controlled interaction of
two or more infeed motors.
To be able to carry out the movements simultaneously
on all machine axes all intermediate values
located on the mathematically specified curve between
the starting and end point need to be first calculated
by the CNC control.
