88 8025/8030 CNC PROGRAMMING MANUAL
6.29.3. Most common applications
There are different applications, as shown below:
Fine adjustment of the tool: These check the cutting point of each tool and compensate,
if necessary, the distance to the work place or stop production should a tool break.
Fine adjustment of the part: by means of canned probecycles which will be seen below.
Digitizing system. For copying parts by means of the collection of information point by
point. The probe is given the job of sending positional data by means of a series of
predetermined movements along the surface of the part.
In the case of the FAGOR 8025/30 MS CNC the system generates CNC programs
automatically enabling the machining of complex parts with a great deal of reliability.
It is recommendable to use an interface which is an electronic link between the probe and
the control of the machine.
This controls the status of the probe continuously, provides energy to the induction
modules and transmits a signal to the control of the machine when the probe has tripped.
