Parameter Description
TC Name of swivel data set
Retract
No: No retraction before swiveling

- (only for G
Z: Retraction in the direction of machine axis Z

code)
Z, X, Y: Move machining axis to retraction position before swiveling

Tool direction, max.: Maximum retraction (up to the software end position) in the

tool direction
Tool direction, inc.: Retraction, incremental (up to the software end position) in the

tool direction
When retracting in the tool direction, in the swiveled machine state, several axes
can move (travel).
ZR Retraction path - (only for incremental retraction in the tool direction)
Swivel plane
New: New swivel plane

- (only for G
Additive: Additive swivel plane

code)
RP - (only for Retraction plane for face B
ShopTurn)
C0 - (only for Position angle for machining surface
ShopTurn)
X0 Reference point for rotation X
Y0 Reference point for rotation Y
Z0 Reference point for rotation Z
Swivel mode
axis-by-axis: Swivel coordinate system axis-by-axis

Solid angle: Swivel via solid angle

Proj. angle: Swiveling via projection angle

Direct: Position rotary axes directly

Axis sequence Sequence of the axes which are rotated around - (only for axis-by-axis swivel mode)
XYZ or XZY or YXZ or YZX or ZXY or ZYX
X Rotation around X
Y Rotation around Y
Z Rotation around Z
