Cycle run

Touch Probe Cycle 413 finds the center of a circular stud and defines
it 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 to the starting point

1

at rapid

traverse (value from FMAX column) following the positioning logic
(see “Executing touch probe cycles” on page 283). The TNC
calculates the touch points from the data in the cycle and the
safety clearance from the SET_UP column of the touch probe
table.

2

Then the touch probe moves to the entered measuring height and
probes the first touch point at the probing feed rate (column F). The
TNC derives the probing direction automatically from the
programmed starting angle.

3

Then the touch probe moves in a circular arc either at measuring
height or at clearance height to the next starting point

2

and probes

the second touch point.

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 312)
and saves the actual values in the Q parameters
listed below.

6

If desired, the TNC subsequently measures the datum in the touch
probe axis in a separate probing.

Danger of collision!

To prevent a collision between touch probe and
workpiece, enter a high estimate for the nominal diameter
of the stud.

Before a cycle definition you must have programmed a
tool call to define the touch probe axis.

The smaller the angle increment Q247, the less accurately
the TNC can calculate the datum. Minimum input value:
5°.
