2.3.1 Origins of the reference systems
The position of the different reference systems is determined by their respective origin points.
O
M
Machine zero.
It is the origin point of the machine reference system, set by the machine manufacturer.
O
F
Fixture zero
It is the origin point of the fixture reference system being used. Its position is defined by the
operator by using the "fixture offset" and is referred to machine zero.
The "fixture offset" may be set by program or from the CNC's front panel, as described in
the Operating Manual.
O
W
Part zero
It is the origin point of the reference system of the part (workpiece). Its position is set by the
operator using the "zero offset" and is referred:
• To the fixture offset, if the fixture reference system is active. When changing the fixture
reference system, the CNC updates the part zero position by referring to the new fixture
zero point.
• To the machine zero point (home), if the fixture reference system is NOT active. When
activating the fixture reference system, the CNC updates the part zero position by
referring it to the fixture zero point.
The "zero offset" may be set from the program or from the CNC front panel as described in
the Operating Manual.
Zero offset when:
(A)The fixture reference system is activated.
(B)The fixture reference system is deactivated.
