Manual calibration without a probe.
All the movements are carried out manually. Since there
is no probe, a reference part is required to calibrate the
tool. The calibration consists in moving the tool
manually until it touches the part and then validating the
calibration on each axis. In this mode, only the active
tool can be calibrated.
Milling model.
Calibrate the length of the endmills and the offsets of the
lathe tools.
Lathe model (plane).
Calibrate the offset of any tool.
Lathe model (trihedron).
Calibrate the length or offsets of the endmills and the
offsets of the lathe tools.
Tool calibration steps.
1. Define the dimensions of the reference part being
used in the calibration.
2. Define the tool and the offset to be calibrated and
press [START] to execute the tool change (if [ENTER]
is pressed, the CNC will only show the tool data).
3. Calibrate the tool. Approach the tool manually until
touching the part and then validate the calibration
using the softkey menu. After validating the
calibration, it updates the values and initializes the
wear value to zero. Them, the new values are saved
in the tool table.
4. Press [START] for the CNC to assume the new values
of the offset.
