EDM Movement <EDMMOVE>

EMD movement command is generated by the Wire EDM operations of the CAM system. The command specifies the wire movement coordinates and sets the movement interpolation modes.

Command:

EDMMOVE MODE: RAPID(0) | 2AXIS(1) | TAPER(2) | MULTIPROF(3)| 4AXIS(4),

SPAN1: CUT(0) | ARC(1), SPAN2: CUT(0) | ARC(1),

EP1: (X x; Y y; Z z), EP2: (X x; Y y; Z z),

PC1: (X x; Y y), PC2: (X x; Y y), R1 r1, R2 r2, A a,

ROLLMODE: OFF(0) | SHARP(1) | CONICAL(2) | CYLINDRICAL(3) |

FIXED(4),

ROLLR1 rollr1, ROLLR2 rollr2

Parameters:

Parameter	CLD array		Description
Movement mode	CLD[1]	CLD.Mode	RAPID(0) – Rapid movement, 2AXIS(1) – 2 axis movement, TAPER(2) – 2 axis movement with taper, MULTIPROF(3) – multiprofile movement (arcs and lines), 4AXIS(4) – 4 axis movement (lines only)
Lower contour element type	CLD[2]	CLD.Span1	CUT(0) – a line, ARC(1) – an arc
Upper contour element type	CLD[3]	CLD.Span2	CUT(0) – a line, ARC(1) – an arc
Lower contour element endpoint, EP1	CLD[4], CLD[5], CLD[6]	CLD.Ep1X, CLD.Ep1Y, CLD.Ep1Z	X, Y and Z coordinates of the lower contour element endpoint
Upper contour element endpoint, EP2	CLD[7], CLD[8], CLD[9]	CLD.Ep2X, CLD.Ep2Y, CLD.Ep2Z	X, Y and Z coordinates of the upper contour element endpoint
Lower contour arc center point, PC1	CLD[10], CLD[11]	CLD.Pc1X, CLD.Pc1Y	X и Y coordinates of the lower contour arc center point, if this element is an arc.
Upper contour arc center point, PC2	CLD[12], CLD[13]	CLD.Pc2X, CLD.Pc2Y	X и Y coordinates of the lower contour arc center point, if this element is an arc.
Lower contour arc radius, R1	CLD[14]	CLD.R1	If the lower contour element is an arc, then the parameter specifies the signed arc radius: R > 0 – the arc is counterclockwise, R < 0 – the arc is clockwise.
Upper contour arc radius, R2	CLD[15]	CLD.R2	If the upper contour element is an arc, then the parameter specifies the signed arc radius: R > 0 – the arc is counterclockwise, R < 0 – the arc is clockwise.
Taper angle, A	CLD[16]	CLD.A	In the TAPER(2) movement mode the parameter specifies signed taper angle: A > 0 – right taper, A < 0 – left taper.
Sharp angle rolling mode, ROLLMODE	CLD[17]	CLD.RollMode	This parameter specifies sharp angle roll mode for the 2 axis and taper machining (CornerR function): OFF(0) – the corner rolling is off (R1 = 0, R2 = 0); SHARP(1) – in this mode only the lower contour angles are rolled (R1 = R1, R2 = 0); CONICAL(2) – both lower and upper contour angles are rolled, rounding radiuses are derived from taper angle (R1 = R1, R2 = R1 + <Taper offset>); CYLINDRICAL(3) – lower and upper contour angles are rounded, rounding radiuses are equal (R1 = R1, R2 = R1); FIXED(4) – lower and upper contour angles are rounded, rounding radiuses are independent (R1 = R1, R2 = R2)
Lower contour element roll radius, ROLLR1	CLD[18]	CLD.RollR1	This parameter specifies the rolling radius of the sharp angle of the lower contour element
Upper contour element roll radius, ROLLR2	CLD[19]	CLD.RollR2	This parameter specifies the rolling radius of the sharp angle of the upper contour element
