Angular measurement G787
Cycle G787 probes twice in the programmed direction and computes
the angle. If the tolerance value defined in the cycle is exceeded, the
cycle saves the measured deviation for a subsequent misalignment
compensation. Program Cycle G788 next in order to activate the
misalignment compensation. The result of the measurement is saved
additionally in the variable #i99 (See "Touch probe cycles for automatic
operation" on page 431.).
Cycle run
From the current position the touch probe moves along the defined
measuring axis toward the measuring point. When the stylus touches
the workpiece, the measured value is saved and the touch probe is
retracted. Then the touch probe is pre-positioned for the second
measurement and the workpiece is probed.
The control outputs an error message if the touch probe does not
reach any touch point within the defined measuring path. If a
maximum deviation WE was programmed, the measuring point is
approached twice and the mean value is saved as result. If the
difference of the measurements is greater than the maximum
deviation WE, the program run is interrupted and an error message is
displayed.
