10.4 Rapid traverse motion (G0, RTLION, RTLIOF)

10.4 Rapid traverse motion (G0, RTLION, RTLIOF)
The rapid traverse velocity of an axis is its maximum permissible velocity defined using
machine data:
● MD32000 $MA_MAX_AX_VELO (maximum axis velocity) will still apply even after the
coupling is activated
Rapid traverse motion is used, for example:
● Quickly positioning a tool
● Passing around the workpiece
● Approaching tool change points
● Retracting the tool
Note
The function is not suitable for workpiece machining!
