Touch probe data

Abbr.

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
