Height of the mea suri ng probe
Now the height of the probe must be
determined and entered into the
machine parameters. First determine
the approximate height of the probe
with a caliper gauge and enter it in the
configuration dialog on the page
"Macros" at Variable number # 953
"Tool length sensor height for Z0
determination".
Now place the probe on the material and the tool via the probe. If you now call up the macro
(double-click on "Height measurement with mobile probe" on the Special Page), the measuring
process will be carried out.
If you now remove the probe and lower
it with the tool until it just touches the
material, a Zero coordinate should be
displayed near Zero. The small
difference - ideal would be exactly
zero - comes from the fact that the real
switching point of the probe is located
at a slightly depressed ram, and this
cannot be measured accurately with the
caliper.
Therefore, the variable # 953 needs to be corrected slightly.
If a positive Z value is displayed, the offset has been set too low and you must reduce the variable
by the displayed Z value. Conversely, if the Z is negative, the variable must be increased by the
amount.
