Function Description

The following figure shows the robot motion in Tool mode.

6-axis robot 4-axis robot
Drives the robot flange linearly along the X-, Y-, and Z-axes of the flange face. Drives the robot flange linearly along the Cartesian coordinates of the 4th axis.

Note 1: This figure shows the tool coordinate system when Tool0 is selected. This coordinate system is called mechanical interface coordinate system.

Attention

To execute this FB, FB with the FB category "Motion" needs to be made executable.
To make FB with the FB category "Motion" executable, use the FB "MC_Power".
