15.10 DATUM CIRCLE CENTER
(Cycle 416, DIN/ISO: G416)
Cycle run
Touch Probe Cycle 416 finds the center of a bolt hole circle and 
defines its center as datum. If desired, the TNC can also enter the 
coordinates into a datum table or the preset table.
1
The TNC positions the touch probe at rapid traverse (value from 
column FMAX) following the positioning logic (see “Executing 
touch probe cycles” on page 285) to the center of the first hole 
1
.
2
Then the probe moves to the entered measuring height and 
probes four points to find the first hole center.
3
The touch probe returns to the clearance height and then to the 
position entered as center of the second hole 
2
.
4
The TNC moves the touch probe to the entered measuring height 
and probes four points to find the second hole center.
5
The touch probe returns to the clearance height and then to the 
position entered as center of the third hole 
3
.
6
The TNC moves the touch probe to the entered measuring height 
and probes four points to find the third hole center.
7
Finally the TNC returns the touch probe to the clearance height and 
processes the determined datum depending on the cycle 
parameters Q303 and Q305 (see “Saving the calculated datum” 
on page 314) and saves the actual values in the Q parameters 
listed below.
8
If desired, the TNC subsequently measures the datum in the touch 
probe axis in a separate probing.
