Looking at a mazak integrex 200y:
 
I just realized that your machine is actually more setup as a lathe so the above will not be much help.
The best way forward would likely be to build a new custom kinematic for your type of machine. I have a series of documentations (including the jupyter notebooks for sagemath) if you want to have a go at it:

[edit]
If you attach your vismach model I'll see if I can find some time to help you.

Good morning Aciera,

I would be really happy if you could find the time and willpower to lift me up a little bit ;)

I attached, hopefully my complete config incl. .comp & .py , config in the zip archive but  just to be sure i attached my vismach config separately.

Kind regards,
Jochen

Here is a sim config:

File Name: mazak-inte...y.tar.gz
File Size:17 KB


1. unpack to your 'configs' folder
2. make sure that '/vismach/mazak-integrex-200y-gui.py' is marked as executable (right-click->Properties)
3. 'halcompile --install' the enclosed 'mazak_integrex_200y_kins.comp'
4. start the config and run the preloaded example gcode

Notes:
- Slide tilt angle and pivot-length can be set using the slider in the right hand panel.
- the vismach model is a reused model from one of my other sim configs so it is a bit minimalistic but should suffice the purpose for now.

Hi Aciera,

sorry for reply a bit late. I was on vaccation. Thank you so so much for this incredible help! I downloaded it and played i bit arround and it looks realy good.

I changed the travel limits for the B-Axis, because the head can swivel from "looking" left and right into the z direction. This caused some trouble. I need to spend more time with it to know what needs to be "polished".

Also i saw, that in the Identity Mode the Axis soft limits work fine, but in TCP-Mode the maschine runs into the joint hard limits.

I hope in find time during the weekend to dig myself further into your example. Thanks again for the amazing help!

Kind regards,
Jochen

For non trivial kinematics proper limit checking prior to execution time is currently not possible because the planner is totally ignorant of custom kinematics. Your best option would be to check for limit violations in cam or running your gcode in a simulation configuration.
Limit checking does work during execution (ie when the joint position actually exceeds the limit) but that will cause an immediate (emergency) stop.
Sometimes it may even be necessary to loosen axes limits to be able to reach the full work space.
