DATUM FROM INSIDE OF
RECTANGLE (Cycle 410, DIN/
ISO: G410)

Cycle run

Touch Probe Cycle 410 finds the center of a rectangular pocket and
defines its center as datum. If desired, the TNC can also enter the
coordinates into a datum table or the preset table.

1 Following the positioning logic, the TNC positions the touch

probe at rapid traverse (value from

FMAX column) (see

"Executing touch probe cycles", page 444) to touch point

1

. 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 runs the first probing process at the probing feed rate
(column

F).

3 Then the touch probe moves either paraxially 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 "Characteristics common to all
touch probe cycles for datum setting", page 472).

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

touch probe axis in a separate probing and saves the actual
values in the following Q parameters.

Parameter number

Actual value of center in reference axis

Q152

axis
