Result of the measurement
Once the cycle has ended, the CNC returns the real values obtained
in the measurement to the following general arithmetic parameters:
If a tool offset number (D) was selected, the CNC will modify its values
as long as the measurement error is equal to or greater than the
tolerance (L).
Depending on the axis used for measuring (LW), the correction will be
applied either on the length value or on the radius value.
• If the measurement is made with the axis perpendicular to the work
plane, it will change the length wear (LW) of the indicated offset (D).
• If the measurement is made with one of the axis forming the plane,
it will change the radius wear (RW) of the indicated offset (D).
Basic operation
1. Approach movement.
Rapid probe movement (G00) from the cycle calling point to the
approach point.
This point is located in front of the point to be measured, at a safety
distance (B) from it and along the probing axis (K).
The approach movement is made in two stages:
·1· Movement in the main work plane.
·2· Movement along the longitudinal axis.
P298 Actual (real) surface coordinate.
P299 Detected error. Difference between the actual surface
coordinate and the programmed theoretical coordinate.
