    Default post processor - simple question

    hellooo!!
    i am trying to create a post processor using the pro/manufacture for a 5axis milling machine.
    the machine has 2 rotary axis, B(-5/+110) and C(-360/+360).
    in the option file generator, in tab ''secondary rotary table'' there is a choice for ''nutator angle'' (where, If the secondary rotary axis rotates in an inclined plane (nutator), specify the positive angle of this plane measured from X to Z or Y to Z in a counter clockwise direction)
    the secondary rotery axis for my case is B (rotation about y axis).

    i think the nutator angle for my machine is 0.
    Am i right???
    i am trying to understand what is the ''nutator angle''!!
    please help me!!!

    Hi,

    Nutator angle only applies to the non-orthogonal head. to understand this concept in a better way see the head mechanism of DMU60P.
    I am sure this will work you 100%, otherwise let me know.

    nutator angle is only for headaxis like this
    Nutating CA/CB head Setup
    At this machine nutator angle is 45 deg.The offsets of DZ and DX are needed.
    At orthogonal spindles which centers of C axis and B axis or any other are coincidence nutator angle does not exist and can be ignored.
