Axis interchange
Depending on the type of robotic system used, axis interchange can alter
or limit the work envelope. Certain position points, or certain types of
motion, that are possible in one coordinate scheme might be impossible in
the other.

AXIS INVERSION
Axis inversion is a reversal in the orientation of one or more coordinate
axes in a robotic system that uses Cartesian coordinate geometry.
