LinuxCNC on 5-Axis router was created by terans1085

Hello,

Is it possible to use CNC on a 5 axis CNC router, whose one of the rotational axis does not follow the conventional right angle rule. I have attached an image of a similar head for ease of understanding.

Thank you!!

hi
you need implement special kinematics module for 5Axis with this kind and implement RTCP. but there is difficulty in tool compensation like tool-lenght or ...
i not seen kinematic of this kind of mechanism available on emc.

I see no reason that it wouldn't be possible. But it probably needs a special kinematics module to be written. (these are pretty simple, though, just some geometry coded in C)

Hello,
I'm trying to control similar 5 axis machine with linuxcnc. Did you ever figure it out?

I recently made a simulation config for a 45° head. Includes also the documentation on how to derive the kinematic model for it.
Have a look here:
