5-1 Using the Z0 Sensor
What’s a Z0 Sensor
This sensor is used for setting up the Z origin on the upper surface or others of the workpiece.
Important !
When using the machine, check that no cutting waste and the like is present on the tool and Z0 sen-
sor. Otherwise, correct measurement may be impossible and the intended cutting results cannot be
obtained.
Setting the Z Origin Using the Z0 Sensor
Important !
A tool that has an extremely narrow tip may break when it touches the tool sensor depending on which
tool is to be used.
Procedure
Connect the sensor cable.
If the sensor cable is detached from Z0
sensor, insert it.
Set the workpiece on the table,
and place the Z0 sensor at the
place where an operator wants
to set the Z origin on the work-
piece.
Face the surface of the Z0 sensor with no
screw hole facing upward.
