If all the L-shapes are 90 degrees as shown in figure 6.23, enter ‘0.0’ for the Z value
and X/Z calibration is done.
If you find one L-shape that is not 90 degrees, it means the X and Z axis are not
perpencular, and it needs to be adjusted. To clarify, you need to look for a gap
between the ruler and the L-shaped object. If you find a gap, you have found the L-
shape that will provide your Z value and so you need to measure the gap.
The gap will either be at the top of the L-Shape (an obtuse angle) or at the bottom
corner(an acute angle), between the ruler and L-Shape. Use another ruler to
measure the gap, as shown below. Enter the Z value as a negative number if the
angle is obtuse. Enter the Z value as a positive number if the angle is acute.
In our case, for figure 6.24, the value of Z entered is -1.5 mm. For figure 6.25, it is
1.5 mm.
The H value is the measurement of the L-shape’s height between the bottom of the
ruler sitting on the L-shape’s base and top of the L-shape. Theoretically, it is 40.0
mm, and the deviation on the height makes the value otherwise. Enter the height
measurement into the H value field.
In the end, do not forget to click the Confirm button to finish the process.
