16.1.1 Measure or calibrate the length of a tool.
The calibration or measurement may be made on the tool shaft or on
its tip. The type of calibration or measurement is selected when calling
the canned cycle.
Programming
The programming format depends on the type of operation to be
carried out.
• Tool length calibration on its shaft:
#PROBE 1 B I0 J0 F X U Y V Z W
• Tool length calibration at its end:
#PROBE 1 B I1 J0 F D S N X U Y V Z W
• Tool length wear measurement on its shaft:
#PROBE 1 B I0 J1 F L C X U Y V Z W
• Tool length wear measurement on its end:
#PROBE 1 B I1 J1 F L D S C N X U Y V Z W
On the tool shaft.
It is useful for drilling tools, spherical mills or tools whose
diameter is smaller than the probe surface area.
It is carried out with spindle stopped.
On the tool tip.
It is useful for calibrating tools with several cutting edges
(endmills) or tools whose diameter is larger than the probe
surface area.
It may be carried out with spindle stopped or climb cutting.
B Safety distance. It must be programmed with a positive value
greater than 0.
I Type of measurement or calibration.
Value Meaning
0 Length on the tool shaft.
1 Length on the tool tip.
2 Measure or calibrate the tool radius.
3 Tool length and radius.
If not programmed, the canned cycle will take the value of "I0".
