1 5-AXIS MACHINE TOOLS: Kinematics and Vismach Implementation in LinuxCNC Rudy du Preez SA-CNC-CLUB April 7, 206
2 5 Axis Machine Kinematics INTRODUCTION Coordinated multi-axis CNC machine tools controlled with LINUXCNC, requires a special kinematics component for each type of machine. This document describes some of the most popular 5-axis machine configurations and then develops the forward (from work to joint coordinates) and inverse (from joint to work) transformations in a general mathematical process. The kinematics components, as required by LINUXCNC, are given as well as VIS- MACH simulation models to demonstrate their behaviour on a computer screen. Examples of HAL file data are also given. 2 5-AXIS MACHINE TOOL CONFIGURATIONS In this section we deal with the typical 5-axis milling or router machines with five joints or degrees-of-freedom which are controlled in coordinated moves. 3-axis machine tools cannot change the tool orientation, so 5-axis machine tools use two extra axes to set the cutting tool in an appropriate orientation for efficient machining of freeform surfaces. A typical 5-axis machine tool (home converted for LINUXCNC) is shown on the front page, and more examples in Figs. 4, 6 and 0-2 in section Figures [,2]. The kinematics of 5-axes machine tools are much simpler than that of 6-axis serial arm robots, since 3 of the axes are normally linear axes and only two are rotational axes. 3 TOOL ORIENTATION AND LOCATION CAD/CAM systems are typically used to generate the 3D CAD models of the workpiece as well as the CAM data for input to the CNC 5-axis machine. The tool or cutter location (CL) data, is composed of the cutter tip position and the cutter orientation relative to the workpiece coordinate system. Two vectors, as generated by most CAM systems, as shown in Fig., contain this information: K = K x K y K z 0 orientation vector; Q = Q x Q y Q z position vector; () The K vector is equivalent to the 3rd vector from the pose matrix E 6 that was used in the 6-axis robot kinematics [3] and the Q vector is equivalent to the 4th vector of E 6. In MASTERCAM for example this information is contained in the intermediate output.nci file.
3 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 2 Figure : Cutter location data 4 TRANSLATION AND ROTATION MATRICES There are four fundamental transformation matrices on which 5-axis kinematics can be based: 0 0 a b 0 Cθ Sθ 0 T (a, b, c) = R(X, θ) = (2) 0 0 c 0 Sθ Cθ 0 R(Y, θ) = Cθ 0 Sθ Sθ 0 Cθ 0 R(Z, θ) = Cθ Sθ 0 0 Sθ Cθ The matrix T (a, b, c) implies a translation in the X, Y, Z coordinate directions by the amounts a, b, c respectively. The R matrices imply rotations of the angle θ about the X, Y and Z coordinate axes respectively. The C and S letters refer to cosine and sine functions respectively. (3) 5 TABLE ROTARY/TILTING 5-AXIS CONFIGURATIONS: TRT In these machine tools there two rotational axes mount on the work table of the machine. Two forms are typically used: A rotary table which rotates about the vertical Z-axes (C-rotation, secondary) mounted on a tilting table which rotates about the X- or Y-axis (A- or B-rotation, primary). The workpiece is mounted on the rotary table. A tilting table which rotates about the X- or Y-axis (A- or B-rotation, secondary) is mounted on a rotary table which rotates about the Z-axis (C-rotation, primary), with the workpiece on the tilting table.

This can be defined by a transformation matrix w A t, which can be found by subsequent transformations between the different structural elements of the machine, each with its own defined coordinate system. In general such a transformation may look as follows: w A t = w A A 2 2 A 3 n A t (4) where each matrix i A i is a translation matrix T or a rotation matrix R of the form (2,3). In Fig. 2 a generic configuration with coordinate systems is shown [4]. It includes table rotary/tilting axes as well as spindle rotary/tilting axes. Only two of the rotary axes are actually used in a machine tool. First we will develop the transformations for the first type of configuration mentioned above, ie. a table tilting/rotary (TRT) type with no rotating axis offsets. We may give it the name XYZAC-TRT configuration. We also develop the transformations for same type (XYZAC-TRT), but with rotating axis offsets. Then we develop the transformations for a XYZBC-TRT configuration with rotating axis offsets.
5 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 4 Figure 3: Table tilting/rotary configuration 5. Transformations for a XYZAC-TRT machine tool with work offsets We deal here with a simplified configuration in which the tilting axis and rotary axis intersects at a point called the pivot point as shown in Fig. 3. therefore the two coordinate systems O ws and O wp of Fig. 2 are coincident. Forward transformation The transformation can be defined by the sequential multiplication of the matrices: with the matrices built up as follows: w A C = A A P = w A t = w A C C A A A A P P A t (5) 0 0 L x 0 0 L y 0 0 L z C A S A 0 0 S A C A 0 C A A = P A t = C C S C 0 0 S C C C P x 0 0 P y 0 0 P z In these equations L x, L y, L z defines the offsets of the pivot point of the two rotary axes A and C relative to the workpiece coordinate system origin. Furthermore, P x, P y, P z are the relative distances of the pivot point to the cutter tip position, which can also be called the joint coordinates of the pivot point. The pivot point is at the intersection of (6) (7)
6 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 5 the two rotary axes. The signs of the S A and S C terms are different to those in (2,3) since there the table rotations are negative relative to the workpiece coordinate axes (note that sin( θ) = sin(θ), cos( θ) = cos(θ)). When multiplied in accordance with (5), we obtain: w A t = C C S C C A S C S A C C P x + S C C A P y + S C S A P z + L x S C C C C A C C S A S C P x + C C C A P y + C C S A P z + L y 0 S A C A S A P y + C A P z + L z We can now equate the third column of this matrix with our given tool orientation vector K, ie.: K x S C S A K K = y K z = C C S A (9) C A 0 0 From these equations we can solve for the rotation angles θ A, θ C. From the third row we find: θ A = cos (K z ) (0 < θ A < π) (0) and by dividing the first row by the second row we find: θ C = tan2 (K x, K y ) ( π < θ C < π) () These relationships are typically used in the CAM post-processor to convert the tool orientation vectors to rotation angles. Equating the last column of (8) with the tool position vector Q, we can write: Q = Q x Q y Q z = C C P x + S C C A P y + S C S A P z + L x S C P x + C C C A P y + C C S A P z + L y S A P y + C A P z + L z The vector on the right hand side can also be written as the product of a matrix and a vector resulting in: Q = Q x Q y Q z = This can be expanded to give C C S C C A S C S A L x S C C C C A C C S A L y 0 S A C A L z 0 0 P x P y P z (8) (2) =Q A P P (3) Q x Q y = C c P x + S C C A P y + S C S A P z + L x = S C P x + C C C A P y + C C S A P z + L y (4) Q z = S A P y + C A P z + L z which is the forward transformation of the kinematics.
7 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 6 Inverse Transformation We can solve for P from equation (3) as P = ( Q A P ) Q. Noting that the square matrix is a homogenous 4x4 matrix containing a rotation matrix R and translation vector q, for which the inverse can be written as: [ ] [ R q R q A p = ( 0 Q A P ) T R = T ] q (5) 0 where R T is the transpose of R. We therefore obtain: P x C C S C 0 C C L x + S C L y P y P z = S C C A C C C A S A S C C A L x C C C A L y + S A L z S C S A C C S A C A S C S A L x C C S A L y C A L z 0 0 Q x Q y Q z (6) The desired equations for the inverse transformation of the kinematics thus can be written as: P x = C c (Q x L x ) S C (Q y L y ) P y = S C C A (Q x L x ) + C C C A (Q y L y ) S A (Q z L z ) P z = S C S A (Q x L x ) + C C S A (Q y L y ) + C A (Q z L z ) (7) 5.2 Transformations for a XYZAC-TRT machine with rotary axis offsets We deal here with a extended configuration in which the tilting axis and rotary axis do not intersect at a point but have an offset D y. Furthermore, there is also an z-offset between the two coordinate systems O ws and O wp of Fig. 2, called D z. A VISMACH model is shown in Fig. 4 and the offsets are shown in Fig. 5 (positive offsets in this example). To simplify the configuration, the offsets L x, L y, L z of the previous case are not included. They are probably not necessary if one uses the G54 offsets in Linuxcnc by means of the touch of facility. Forward Transformation The transformation can be defined by the sequential multiplication of the matrices: w A t = w A O O A A A A P P A t (8) with the matrices built up as follows: C C S C 0 0 w S A O = C C C A A P = C A S A 0 0 S A C A 0 O A A = P A t = D y 0 0 D z 0 0 P x 0 0 P y D y 0 0 P z D z (9) (20)
8 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 7 Figure 4: VISMACH model of XYZAC-TRT In these equations D y, D z defines the offsets of the pivot point of the rotary axes A relative to the workpiece coordinate system origin. Furthermore, P x, P y, P z are the relative distances of the pivot point to the cutter tip position, which can also be called the joint coordinates of the pivot point. The pivot point is on the A rotary axis. When multiplied in accordance with (8), we obtain: w A t = C C S C C A S C S A C C P x + S C C A (P y D y ) + S C S A (P z D z ) + S C D y S C C C C A C C S A S C P x + C C C A (P y D y ) + C C S A (P z D z ) + C C D y 0 S A C A S A (P y D y ) + C A (P z D z ) + D z (2) We can now equate the third column of this matrix with our given tool orientation vector K, ie.: K = K x K y K z 0 = S C S A C C S A C A 0 From these equations we can solve for the rotation angles θ A, θ C. From the third row we find: θ A = cos (K z ) (0 < θ A < π) (23) and by dividing the second row by the first row we find: (22) θ C = tan2 (K x, K y ) ( π < θ C < π) (24)
9 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 8 A-rotation Dy Dz C-rotation Figure 5: Table tilting/rotary XYZAC-TRT configuration, with axis offsets These relationships are typically used in the CAM post-processor to convert the tool orientation vectors to rotation angles. Equating the last column of (2) with the tool position vector Q, we can write: Q = Q x Q y Q z = C C P x + S C C A (P y D y ) + S C S A (P z D z ) + S C D y S C P x + C C C A (P y D y ) + C C S A (P z D z ) + C C D y S A (P y D y ) + C A (P z D z ) + D z The vector on the right hand side can also be written as the product of a matrix and a vector resulting in: Q = Q x Q y Q z = C C S C C A S C S A S c C A D y S C S A D z + S C D y S C C C C A C C S A C C C A D y C C S A D z + C C D y 0 S A C A S A D y C A D z + D z 0 0 which is the forward transformation of the kinematics. P x P y P z (25) =Q A P P (26) Inverse Transformation We can solve for P from equation (25) as P = ( Q A P ) Q using (5) as before. We thereby obtain: P x P y P z = C C S C 0 0 S C C A C C C A S A C A D y + S A D z + D y S C S A C S S A C A S A D y C A D z + D z 0 0 Q x Q y Q z (27)
10 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 9 The desired equations for the inverse transformation of the kinematics thus can be written as: P x P y = C c Q x S C Q y = S C C A Q x + C C C A Q y S A Q z C A D y + S A D z + D y (28) P z = S C S A Q x + C S S A Q y + C A Q z S A D y C A D z + D z 5.3 Transformations for a XYZBC-TRT machine with rotary axis offsets Figure 6: VISMACH model of XYZBC-TRT We deal here again with a extended configuration in which the tilting axis (about the y-axis) and rotary axis do not intersect at a point but have an offset D x. Furthermore, there is also an z-offset between the two coordinate systems O ws and O wp of Fig. 2, called D z. A VISMACH model is shown in Fig. 6 (negative offsets in this example) and the positive offsets are shown in Fig. 7. Forward Transformation The transformation can be defined by the sequential multiplication of the matrices: w A t = w A O O A B B A P P A t (29)
11 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 0 B-rotation Dz Dx C-rotation Figure 7: Table tilting/rotary XYZBC-TRT configuration, with axis offsets with the matrices built up as follows: w A O = B A P = C C S C 0 0 S C C C C B 0 S B S B 0 C B 0 O A B = P A t = 0 0 D x D z 0 0 P x D x 0 0 P y 0 0 P z D z In these equations D x, D z defines the offsets of the pivot point of the rotary axes B relative to the workpiece coordinate system origin. Furthermore, P x, P y, P z are the relative distances of the pivot point to the cutter tip position, which can also be called the joint coordinates of the pivot point. The pivot point is on the B rotary axis. When multiplied in accordance with (29), we obtain: w A t = C C C B S C C C S B C C C B (P x D x ) + S C P y C C S B (P z D z ) + C C D x S C C B C C S C S B S C C B (P x D X ) + C C P y + S C S B (P z D z ) S C D x S B 0 C B S B (P x D x ) + C B (P z D z ) + D z (32) We can now equate the third column of this matrix with our given tool orientation vector K, ie.: K = K x K y K z 0 = C C S B S C S B C B 0 (30) (3) (33)
12 5 Axis Machine Kinematics From these equations we can solve for the rotation angles θ B, θ C. From the third row we find: θ B = cos (K z ) (0 < θ B < π) (34) and by dividing the second row by the first row we find: θ C = tan2 (K y, K x ) ( π < θ C < π) (35) These relationships are typically used in the CAM post-processor to convert the tool orientation vectors to rotation angles. Equating the last column of (32) with the tool position vector Q, we can write: Q = Q x Q y Q z = C C C B (P x D x ) + S C P y C C S B (P z D z ) + C C D x S C C B (P x D X ) + C C P y + S C S B (P z D z ) S C D x S B (P x D x ) + C B (P z D z ) + D z The vector on the right hand side can also be written as the product of a matrix and a vector resulting in: Q = Q x Q y Q z = C C C B S C C C S B C c C B D x + C C S B D z + C C D x S C C B C C S C S B S C C B D x S C S B D z S C D x S B 0 C B S B D x C B D z + D z 0 0 which is the forward transformation of the kinematics. P x P y P z (36) = Q A P P (37) Inverse Transformation We can solve for P from equation (37) as P = ( Q A P ) Q. With the same approach as before, we obtain: P x P y P z = C C C B S C C B S B C B D x S B D z + D x S C C C 0 0 C C S B S C S B C B S B D x C B D z + D z 0 0 Q x Q y Q z (38) The desired equations for the inverse transformation of the kinematics thus can be written as: P x P y = C c C B Q x S C C B Q y + S B Q z C B D x S B D z + D x = S C Q x + C C Q y (39) P z = C C S B Q x + S C S B Q y + C B Q z + S B D x C B D z + D z 6 SPINDLE ROTARY/TILTING 5-AXIS CONFIGURATIONS: SRT In these machine tools there two rotational axes mount on the work spindle head of the machine. Two forms are typically used:
13 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 2 Figure 8: Rotating/tilting spindle router A rotary axis which rotates about the vertical Z-axes (C-rotation, primary) on which a tilting spindle is mounted such that the tilting is a secondary rotation about the X-axis (A-rotation) or Y-axis (B-rotation). A rotary axis (primary) which rotates about the X-axis or Y-axis on which a tilting spindle is mounted such that the tilting is a secondary rotation about the opposite Y-axis or X-axis. As an example we will develop the transformations for the first type of configuration mentioned above, in which we will use for the secondary rotation a B-rotation. We give the name XYZBC-SRT to this configuration. 6. Transformations for a XYZBC-SRT machine tool A model of a router with a rotary/tilting spindle head is shown in Fig. 8. The general geometry of a tilting/rotating head with three possible rotations is shown in Fig. 9. Only two rotations are typically implemented. Forward Transformation The transformation can be defined by the sequential multiplication of the matrices: w A t = w A P P A C C A B B A t (40) with the matrices built up as follows: 0 0 P x w 0 0 P A P = y 0 0 P z P A C = C C S C 0 0 S C C C (4)
14 Therefore, the analytical equations for NC data can be obtained by solving equations (5)-(7): A = (ha = amsin(-ky) (-7/2 <-- qba -< 7#2) (8) 5 Axis Machine Kinematics B = ~bb = arctan2(k,k~) (-'rr ~ ~ < "rr) (9) 3 X = Px = Qx q- LtC~bASf~B (20) B ) Q. ~ j Lt Cutting tool C Workpiece"/- " ~ Q U Figure Fig. 5. Coordinate 9: Spindle systems tilting/rotary of spindle-tiring type configuration. In the case of this configuration, there is one rota the rotary table and spindle, and the pivot points on the A and B axes, respectively. As shown in pivot point RA is located o_n the A axis arbitrar pivot point RB is chosen to be the intersection o tilting axis (B axis) and the cutting tool's axis. vector Ij + L,J + L~k is calculated from the origi point RA and the effective tool length, L, is between the pivot point RB and the cutter tip c before, the following equations can be obtaine coordinate transformation matrices: [Kx Ky K~ 0] T = Trans(L~, L~,, Lz) Rot(X,-~a) Trans(P~, Py, P~) Rot(Y,+B) [0 0 0] T [Q, Qy Q~ ] T = Trans(L,, Ly, L~) Rot(X,-qba) Trans(p~, P,,, P~) Rot(Y,~) [0 0 -L~ 0 [X Y Z l] T: [L~+P~ Ly+Py L~+P:-Lt Once again, by solving equations (23)-(25), t equations for NC data of this machine configur expressed as: B = ~B = arcsin(kx) A = 0g = arctan2(ky, K 0 X = Lx+P:, = Qy+LtS6B (-7/2 ~ qb~ --< zr/2) (--rr ~< d~a <-- or) Y = L,+P, = (Qy-L~)C~bA-(Q:-L~)S+A+L,. C A B = C B 0 S B S B 0 C B 0 B A t = L t In these equations L t defines the offset of the pivot point of the two rotary axes C and B relative to the tool tip. This gives the effective tool length, so that if tools are changed this variable must be set to reflect the new effective length. P x, P y, P z are again the relative distances of the pivot point with respect to the tool position in the workpiece coordinate system, which can also be called the joint coordinates of the pivot point. When multiplied in accordance with (40), we obtain: w A t = C C C B S C C C S B C C S B L t + P x S C C B C C S C S B S C S B L t + P y 0 0 C B C B L t + P z We can now equate the third column of this matrix with our given tool orientation vector K, ie.: K x C C S B K K = y K z = S C S B (44) C B 0 0 From these equations we can solve for the rotation angles θ B, θ C. From the third row we find: θ B = cos (K z ) (0 < θ A < π) (45) and by dividing the second row by the first row we find: (42) (43) θ C = tan2 (K y, K x ) ( π < θ C < π) (46)
15 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 4 These relationships can be used in the CAM post-processor to convert the tool orientation vectors to rotation angles. Equating the last column of (43) with the tool position vector Q, we can write: Q = Q x Q y Q z This can be rewritten to give simply = C C S B L t + P x S C S B L t + P y C B L t + P z (47) Q x Q y which is the forward transformation of the kinematics. = P x C C S B L t = P y S C S B L t (48) Q z = P z C B L t The relationship between the X, Y, Z values which we have to supply in our Gcode program can be found from (48) by setting θ A = θ C = 0 and X = Q x, Y = Q y, Z = Q z. This results in: X Y Z = P x P y P z L t (49) Inverse Transformation We can solve for P from equation (48) directly to get: P x P y = Q x + C C S B L t = Q y + S C S B L t (50) P z = Q z + C B L t These are desired equations for the inverse transformation of the kinematics. and using (49): X = Q x + C C S B L t Y = Q y + S C S B L t (5) Z = Q z + C B L t L t 7 TOOL-LENGTH COMPENSATION In order to use tools from a tool table sequentially with tool-length compensation applied automatically, a further Z-offset is required. For a tool that is longer than the master tool, which typically has a tool length of zero, Linuxcnc has a variable called motion.tooloffset.z. If this variable is passed on to the kinematic component (and VISMACH PYTHON script), then the necessary additional Z-offset for a new tool can be accounted for by adding the component statement, for example:
16 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 5 D z = D z + tool-offset where tool-offset is the variable passed on the the component by a.hal entry such as: net tool-offset <= motion.tooloffset.z => XYZACkins.Tool-offset 8 KINEMATICS COMPONENTS The kinematics is provided in LinuxCNC by a specially written component in the C- language. It has a standard procedure structure and is therefore normally copied from some standard example from the library of components, and then modified. The component is compiled and installed in the correct place in the file system by a command such as: sudo comp --install kinsname.c in older versions of Linuxcnc or sudo halcompile --install kinsname.c in newer versions, where kinsname is the name you give to your component. The sudo prefix is required to install it and you will be asked for your root password. Once it is compiled and installed you can reference it in your config setup of your machine. This is done in the.hal file of your config directory. The standard command loadrt trivkins is replaced by loadrt kinsname where kinsname is the name of your kins program. A further modification to the.hal file is required (typically at the end of your initial template file), where we have to set the offset parameters of the configuration, such as D x, D y, D z, T ool offset. In our XYZAC-TRT configuration the entries could be for example: # set offset parameters net tool-offset <= motion.tooloffset.z => XYZACkins.Tool-offset setp XYZACkins.Y-offset 0 setp XYZACkins.Z-offset 20 Three examples of kinematics components, applicable to our XYZAC-TRT, XYZBC- TRT and XYZBC-SRT configurations, are given in Appendix A: Kinematics components.
17 5 Axis Machine Kinematics 6 9 VISMACH Simulation Models VISMACH is a library of PYTHON routines to display a dynamic simulation of the CNC machine on the PC screen. The PYTHON script for a particular machine is loaded in the.hal file and data to it is passed on by pin connections. Typical entries in the.hal file are (example for XYZBC-TRT): loadusr -W./XYZBCgui net j0 axis.0.joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.table-x net j axis..joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.saddle-y net j2 axis.2.joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.spindle-z net j4 axis.4.joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.tilt-b net j5 axis.5.joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.rotate-c setp XYZBCgui.X-offset -20 setp XYZBCgui.Z-offset -0 net tool-offs => XYZBCgui.Tool-offset Three examples of VISMACH simulation PYTHON scripts, applicable to our XYZAC- TRT, XYZBC-TRT and XYZBC-SRT configurations, are given in Appendix B: VISMACH simulation PYTHON scripts. 0 HAL FILE EXAMPLES In addition to the normal HAL file entries for 5 joints, some entries are required to pass data on to the kinematics component and the Vismach script. Here is an example of these additional entries in the HAL file for the XYZBC-TRT configuration (with negative offsets - see Fig. 6): # load RT modules: first one the 5-axis kinematics loadrt XYZBCkins # extras for XYZBC 5 axis config setp XYZBCkins.X-offset -20 setp XYZBCkins.Z-offset -0 net tool-offs <= motion.tooloffset.z net tool-offs => XYZBCkins.Tool-offset loadusr -W./XYZBCgui net j0 axis.0.joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.table-x net j axis..joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.saddle-y net j2 axis.2.joint-pos-fb XYZBCgui.spindle-z
