Hi @Anonymous,
Your arc doesn't use radius, because it is a MOVEMENT_LINK_DIRECT type.
Below is a list of all movements types:
MOVEMENT_RAPID = 0; // Rapid movement type.
MOVEMENT_LEAD_IN = 1; // Lead-in movement type.
MOVEMENT_CUTTING = 2; // Cutting movement type.
MOVEMENT_LEAD_OUT = 3; // Lead-out movement type.
MOVEMENT_LINK_TRANSITION = 4; // Transition linking movement type.
MOVEMENT_LINK_DIRECT = 5; // Direction linking movement type.
MOVEMENT_RAMP_HELIX = 6; // Helical ramp movement type.
MOVEMENT_RAMP_PROFILE = 7; // Profile ramp movement type.
MOVEMENT_RAMP_ZIG_ZAG = 8; // Zig-zag ramp movement type.
MOVEMENT_RAMP = 9; // Ramp movement type.
MOVEMENT_PLUNGE = 10; // Plunge movement type.
MOVEMENT_PREDRILL = 11; // Predrill movement type.
MOVEMENT_EXTENDED = 12; // Extended movement type.
MOVEMENT_REDUCED = 13; // Reduced cutting feed movement type.
MOVEMENT_FINISH_CUTTING = 14; // Finish cutting movement type.
MOVEMENT_HIGH_FEED = 15; // High feed movement type.
Please be careful during the tests. Especially with the 2D Contour 3.
I'm not sure if the plane definition doesn't have to be re-called before first IJK circular move on your machine.
To force plane definition you can use gPlaneModal.reset(); command for ex. in line 2306
} else { // use radius mode
if (isHelical()) {
gPlaneModal.reset();
linearize(tolerance);
return;
}
Let us know if it works for you.
The position of the circle plane depends on the active plane (G17-G19). If the tangent of the previous block does not lie in the active plane, its projection in the active plane is used. If the start and end points do not have the same position components perpendicular to the active plane, a helix is produced instead of a circle.
