# Face machining with 2 rotary axes (#FACE 2ROT, #FACE OFF)

Kinematic ID 203 is required for face machining with two rotary axes, The tool is then supported by the rotary axis Y and the translatory axis Z. The workpiece is aligned by the rotary axis C.

Transformation can be switched by the command #FACE 2ROT. The user programs X, Y, Z on the tool face in the Cartesian system.

The C axis must have a modulo range of 0° to 360°, see P-AXIS-00126 and P-AXIS-00127.

## Notice

In order to use this face machining, the value 203 must be assigned to P-CHAN-00262 for this transformation.

Syntax`:`
#FACE 2ROT [AX1=<name> AX2=<name> AX3=<name>] | [AXNR1=.. AXNR2=.. AXNR3=..]

AX1=<Name> | Designation of first axis
AX2=<Name> | Designation of second axis
AX3=<Name> | Designation of third axis
AXNR1=.. | Logical axis number P-AXIS-00016 of first axis
AXNR2=.. | Logical axis number P-AXIS-00016 of second axis
AXNR3=.. | Logical axis number P-AXIS-00016 of third axis

This mode is deselected by:
