Setting machine parameters

Before you start working with the measuring
cycles, check all machine parameters defined
in

ProbeSettings > CfgToolMeasurement and

CfgTTRoundStylus.
The TNC uses the feed rate for probing defined in
probingFeed when measuring a tool at standstill.

When measuring a rotating tool, the TNC automatically calculates
the spindle speed and feed rate for probing.

The spindle speed is calculated as follows:

n =

maxPeriphSpeedMeas / ( r • 0.0063) where

n:

Spindle speed [rpm]

maxPeriphSpeedMeas:

Maximum permissible cutting speed in
m/min

r:

Active tool radius in mm

The feed rate for probing is calculated from:
v = measuring tolerance • n with

v:

Feed rate for probing in mm/min

Measuring tolerance

Measuring tolerance [mm], depending
on

maxPeriphSpeedMeas

n:

Shaft speed [rpm]
