Tool Offset
The
DRO 200T
can store the dimensional offsets for up to 10 tools. When you
change a workpiece and establish the absolute zero, all the tools are automatically
referenced from the new zero.
The offset dimensions can be found using a tool presetter, or you can determine
them using the auto-offset calculation feature of the readout. In Setup you
determine which method you wish to use.
Defining Tools with the Auto-Offset Calculation Feature
1.
Install a tool and select its number.
2.
Begin the tool offset definition.
3.
Machine a diameter.
4.
While the tool is still in contact with the workpiece, press the
LOCK
AXIS
key. The readout will lock this tool position into the display, even if
you move the tool.
