Turning machines generally only use axes Z and X and therefore:

G17 and G19 are used for milling on a turning machine. If there is no machine axis Y, milling

can be implemented with the following kinematic transformations.

In principle, measuring cycles support kinematic transformations. This is stated more clearly

in the individual cycles, measuring variants.

If a drill or milling cutter is measured on a turning machine, in most cases, setting data SD

42950: TOOL_LENGTH_TYPE = 2 set. These tools are then length-compensated like a

turning tool.

SINUMERIK controls have other machine and setting data that can influence calculation of a
