Inputs

Dialog

NO

Number of the touch probe: Enter this number in the tool table
(column: TP_NO) under the appropriate tool number

TYPE

Selection of the touch probe used

Selection of touch probe?

CAL_OF1

Offset of the touch probe axis to the spindle axis for the reference
axis

TS center misalignmt. ref. axis?
[mm]

CAL_OF2

Offset of the touch probe axis to the spindle axis for the minor
axis

TS center misalignmt. aux. axis?
[mm]

CAL_ANG

The TNC orients the touch probe to the orientation angle before
calibration or probing (if orientation is possible)

Spindle angle for calibration?

F

Feed rate at which the TNC is to probe the workpiece

Probing feed rate? [mm/min]

FMAX

Feed rate at which the touch probe pre-positions, or is positioned
between the measuring points

Rapid traverse in probing cycle?
[mm/min]

DIST

If the stylus is not deflected within the defined path, the TNC
outputs an error message

Maximum measuring path? [mm]

SET_UP

In SET_UP you define how far from the defined (or calculated)
touch point the TNC is to pre-position the touch probe. The
smaller the value you enter, the more exactly you must define the
touch point position. In many touch probe cycles you can also
define a set-up clearance that is added to the SET_UP machine
parameter.

Set-up clearance? [mm]

F_PREPOS

Defining speed with pre-positioning:

Pre-positioning with speed from FMAX: FMAX_PROBE

Pre-positioning with machine rapid traverse: FMAX_MACHINE

Pre-positioning at rap. traverse?
ENT/NO ENT

TRACK

To increase measuring accuracy, you can use TRACK = ON to have
an infrared touch probe oriented in the programmed probe
direction before every probe process. In this way the stylus is
always deflected in the same direction:

ON

: Perform spindle tracking

OFF

: Do not perform spindle tracking

Orient touch probe cycles? Yes=ENT,
No=NOENT
