Face end transformation TRANSMIT

In this chapter, a description is provided as to how a end face transformation is mapped using
a kinematic chain and parameterized in the control system using system variables. The
TRANSMIT transformation permits end face machining (drill holes, contours) on turning
machines.
The system variables are retentively saved in the NC and can be archived and/or read as "NC
data" via SINUMERIK Operate using the commissioning archive.
The machine kinematics are defined using two kinematic chains, see Definition of kinematic
transformations (Page 256).
The following graphic shows an example of a end face transformation:

Supplementary conditions
● There must be exactly one rotary axis (the polar axis), with its name in
$NT_ROT_AX_NAME[n,1].
● One to three entries for linear axes are possible in the system parameters
$NT_GEO_AX_NAME[n,i].
