[0079] N = (K - X2) - X1 = K - X1 - X2;

[0080] where, (K - X2) is the distance of the saddle in the second channel relative to the origin X 01 in the first channel;

[0081] 4) If N > M, where M is the safety distance, then when the dual-channel saddles of the intelligent multi-channel five-axis vertical machining center run synchronously, there will be no interference between the two saddles;

[0082] 5) If N < M, when the sensors of the intelligent multi-channel five-axis vertical machining center detect that the two saddles are moving towards each other, at this time the control system will send a deceleration signal to the saddle in the first channel, providing a deceleration a1, send a deceleration signal to the saddle in the second channel, providing a deceleration a2, and calculate the real-time distance N between the saddle in the second channel and the saddle in the first channel:
