16.7 Outside corner and angle measuring canned cycle
A probe must be used mounted in the spindle, previously calibrated
using canned cycles #PROBE 1 and #PROBE 2.
This cycle may be used to measure angles between ±45º.
• If the angle to be measured is equal to or greater than 45º, the CNC
will display the relevant error.
• If the angle to be measured is equal to or smaller than –45º the
probe will collide with the part.
Programming
The cycle may be programmed in any work plane. Depending on the
work plane, the theoretical coordinates of the cycle may be defined
in several ways:
• In the active work plane, except if the plane is formed by any of the
axes A-B-C.
• Using parameters X-Y-Z. When the plane is not formed by these
axes, these parameters are interpreted as coordinates in the first
axis, second axis and axis perpendicular to the work plane
respectively.
The programming format in the G17, G18 or G19 plane is:
#PROBE 7 X Y Z B F
Depending on the part corner to be measured, the probe must be
placed in the corresponding shaded area (see figure) before calling
the cycle.
#PROBE 7 X50 Y65 Z15 … Main axes X-Y-Z
#PROBE 7 X1=50 Y2=65 Z1=15 … Main axes X1-Y2-Z1
#PROBE 7 X50 Y65 Z15 … Main axis X1-B-C
X Theoretical X coordinate of the corner to be measured.
Y Theoretical Y coordinate of the corner to be measured.
Z Theoretical Z coordinate of the corner to be measured.
B Safety distance. It must be programmed with a positive value
greater than 0.
The probe must be located at a greater distance than twice this
value, with respect to the programmed point to be measured,
when calling the cycle.
