Transformations
7.5 Orientations relative to the path
Orientation direction of the tool for 3-axis to 5-axis transformation
The orientation direction of the tool can be programmed via Euler angles, RPY angles or
direction vectors as with 3-axis to 5-axis transformations. Orientation changes of the tool in
space can also be achieved by programming the large-radius circular interpolation
ORIVECT, linear interpolation of the orientation axes ORIAXES, all interpolations on the
peripheral surface of a taper ORICONxx, and interpolation in addition to the curve in space
with two contact points of the tool ORICURVE.

Note
If the tool orientation with active ORIAXES is interpolated via the orientation axes, the angle
of rotation is only initiated relative to the path at the end of block.
