DATUM FROM OUTSIDE OF CORNER
(Cycle 414, 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, the TNC positions the touch

probe at rapid traverse (value from

FMAX column) (see

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

1

(see

figure at upper right). The TNC offsets the touch probe by the
safety clearance in the direction opposite to the respective
traverse direction.

2 Then the touch probe moves to the entered measuring height

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

F). The TNC derives the probing direction automatically

from the programmed 3rd measuring point.

1 Then the touch probe moves to the next starting position

2

and

from there probes the second position.

2 The TNC positions the probe to starting point

3

and then to

starting point

4

to probe the third and fourth touch points.

3 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) and sa
ves the
coordinates of the determined corner in the Q parameters listed
below.

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

touch probe axis in a separate probing.
