9 MAJOR POSITIONING CONTROL
9.2.4 3-axis linear interpolation control
In "3-axis linear interpolation control" (" Da.2 Control system" = ABS linear 3, INC
linear 3), three motors are used to carry out position control in a linear path while
carrying out interpolation for the axis directions set in eac h axis.
(Refer to Section 9.1.6 "Interpolation control" for details on in terpolation control.)
[1] 3-axis linear interpolation control (ABS linear 3)
Operation chart
In the absolute system 3-axis linear control, using an address establis hed by a
machine OPR in the 3-axis coordinate space, a linear interpolation pos itioning is
carried out from the current stop position (start point address) to the address (end
point address) set in the " Da.6 Positioning address/movement amount".

Example
When the start point address (current stop positon) is (1000, 2000, 1000) and the end point addr ess
(positioning address) is (4000, 8000, 4000), positioning is carried out as follows.
