PROBE 12. Tabletop probe calibration
Cycle programming format
Working in Cartesian coordinates, the basic structure of the block is as follows:
PROBE 12, B, E, H, F, I, X, U, Y, V, Z, W
[ B5.5 ] Approach distance
Probe approaching distance in each probing movement. If not programmed or programmed with
a 0 value, the CNC will display the corresponding error message.
[ E±5.5 ] Withdrawal distance
Distance the tool retracts after touching the probe to take the measurement. If not programmed or
programmed with a 0 value, the CNC will display the corresponding error message.
[ H5 ] Searching feedrate
Probe searching feedrate. If not programmed or programmed with a 0 value, the CNC will display
the corresponding error message.
[ F5 ] Measuring feedrate
Measuring feedrate. If not programmed or programmed with a 0 value, the CNC will display the
corresponding error message.
[ I1 ] Type of calibration
The type of calibration may be simple or double.
I=0 Single calibration: the calibration is carried out in the 4 quadrants of the probe with the
spindle that holds the tool oriented at 0º.
I=1 Double calibration: the calibration is carried out twice in the 4 quadrants of the probe,
one with the spindle positioned at 0º and the other with the spindle positioned at 180º.
This prevents tool eccentricity errors.
If not programmed, the cycle will assume the I=0 value.
[ X±5.5 ] Approximate X axis coordinate of the least positive side of the probe
Approximate coordinate of the least positive side of the probe, along the abscissa axis. If not
programmed, it will assume the value of general machine parameter PRBXMIN (P40).
[ U±5.5 ] Approximate X axis coordinate of the most positive side of the probe
Approximate coordinate of the most positive side of the probe, along the abscissa axis. If not
programmed, it will assume the value of general machine parameter PRBXMAX (P41).
[ Y±5.5 ] Approximate Y axis coordinate of the least positive side of the probe
Approximate coordinate of the least positive side of the probe, along the ordinate axis. If not
programmed, it will assume the value of general machine parameter PRBYMIN (P42).
