Programming and operating manual Model 1001 DFB
24 FICEP S.p.A.
Axes zero cycle
Preliminary remarks
Just after the line has been started up and before a program execution or a manual positioning
of the axes, it is necessary to perform the preset program called āaxes zero cycleā.
The CNC when switched on is unacquainted on the true physical position of the axes; it is therefore nec-
essary to move each axis to reference points, having apposite signals coming from the motor sensor (en-
coder), which are known by the CNC.
