DIN/ISO: G414)

Cycle run

Touch Probe Cycle 414 finds the intersection of two lines and defines

it as the datum. If desired, the TNC can also enter the intersection into

a datum table or preset table.
1

Following the positioning logic (see "Executing touch probe cycles"

on page 332), the TNC positions the touch probe at rapid traverse

(value from MP6150) to the first touch point

1

(see figure at upper

right). The TNC offsets the touch probe by the safety clearance in

the direction opposite the respective traverse direction.

2

Then the touch probe moves to the entered measuring height and

probes the first touch point at the probing feed rate (MP6120). The

TNC derives the probing direction automatically from the

programmed 3rd measuring point.

3

Then the touch probe moves to the next starting position

2

and

probes the second position.

4

The TNC positions the probe to starting point

3

and then to starting

point

4

to probe the third and fourth touch points.

5

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 358) and saves the coordinates of the determined corner in

the Q parameters listed below.

6

If desired, the TNC subsequently measures the datum in the touch

probe axis in a separate probing.
