Cartesian interpolation
With the Cartesian interpolation command a linear interpolation of the normal direction, the tangent direction or offset position can be applied.
At the selected toolpath element the markers of the algorithms appear.
| Interpolation | Mode | Marker |
|---|---|---|
| Cartesian normal | Absolute | Blue rhombus |
| Relative | Blue sphere | |
| Cartesian tangent | Absolute | Red rhombus |
| Relative | Red sphere | |
| Cartesian offset | Absolute | Yellow rhombus |
| Relative | Yellow sphere |
The required marker needs to be picked. To complete the selection and to calculate the interpolation, the interval to where to optimize has to be closed by selecting a second toolpath element. The calculation is executed automatically and the result is displayed.
