Set WO
-or-
Calculate
11. Press the "Set WO" or "Calculate" softkey.
The diameter and center point of the spigot are calculated and
displayed.
The set position of the center point is stored as a new zero point with
"Set WO". The tool radius is automatically included in the calculation.
Measuring a circular
spigot automatically
1. Attach a 3D probe type tool to the spindle.
2. Move the tool until it is approximately at the center of the spigot.
3. Prepare the measurement (as described under "Measuring a
circular spigot manually", steps 2 to 7).
4. In "Øspigot", enter the approximate diameter of the spigot.
This limits the area for rapid traverse. If no diameter is entered,
Travel starts from the starting point at measurement feedrate.
5. Enter an angle in "Probing angle" (see step 5, "Measuring one hole
automatically").
Cycle Start
6. Press the "Cycle Start" key.
The tool automatically contacts 4 points in succession around the
outside wall of the spigot. When measurement has been successfully
completed, the "P0 stored" softkey becomes active.
The diameter and center point of the spigot are calculated and
displayed.
The set position of the center point is stored as the new zero point if
you have selected "work offset". The tool radius is automatically
included in the calculation.
Measuring two circular
spigots automatically
1. Attach a 3D probe type tool to the spindle.
2. Move the tool until it is approximately at the center of the first
spigot.
Jog
3. In "Machine Manual" mode, select the "Meas. workp." softkey.
4. Press the "Spigot" softkey.
5. Press the "2 circular spigots" softkey.
6. Specify whether you want "Measurement only" or in which work
offset you want to store the zero point (as described under
"Measuring an edge manually", step 5).
