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 rotary 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!!!
 
yes, you should ignore the question. the nutator angle is default to 0.
 
Yeah agree with Chenp.
