Cycle run
Touch Probe Cycle 426 measures the position and width of a ridge. If
you define the corresponding tolerance values in the cycle, the TNC
makes a nominal-to-actual value comparison and saves the deviation
value in system parameters.

Following the positioning logic (see "Executing touch probe cycles"
on page 332), the TNC positions the touch probe to the probe
starting point 1 at rapid traverse (value from MP6150). The TNC
calculates the probe starting points from the data in the cycle and
the safety clearance from MP6140.
2 Then the touch probe moves to the entered measuring height and
probes the first touch point at the probing feed rate (MP6120). 1.
The first probing is always in the negative direction of the
programmed axis.
3 Then the touch probe moves at clearance height to the next
starting position and probes the second touch point.
4 Finally the TNC returns the touch probe to the clearance height and
saves the actual values and the deviation in the following Q
parameters:

Parameter number Meaning
Q156 Actual value of measured length
Q157 Actual value of the centerline
Q166 Deviation of the measured length
Before a cycle definition you must have programmed a
tool call to define the touch probe axis.
Ensure that the first measurement is always carried out in
the negative direction of the selected measuring axis.
Define Q263 and Q264 correspondingly.
