5-axis Machining
Fixed tilt angle
You can set an additive tilt angle to your present tool axis direction. The Positive angle lets the axis
tilt against the main axis. With negative angles the tool axis tilts from the main axis. The main axis is
usually the Z-axis. Maximum tilt is reached when the tool axis is parallel to the main axis.
