gage (around 100mm) so that the
measurement can be made from the bottom,

“0.”
-axis in the Handle Mode, so that
the end of the Test-Bar touches the indicator to
set it to "0".
3) Calculate the distance from Z0 position by the
following equation.
Test Bar Length
Block Gage Height - 150
▪ For the DVF 5000, when the distance from
the table top to the Spindle Gage Line is
"150mm,” “Z-400.000”
Ex) If the Block Gauge : 100mm, Test bar : 310mm, then : 310 + 100
150 = 260
In other words, in this case, the position reached when -260.000 has been
transferred in the Z-axis machine coordinate is -400.000, which is the end of the Z-
axis stroke “- ”
direction. And, for the machine reference point position, the position
reached when 140.00 has been transferred in the + direction is the Z-axis
reference point.
