Step 3 - Spindle AOR Parallelism to Lathe
Bed
A) Put T-261A Target on lathe saddle and move
it to a distance from the headstock specified in
for Point #1 in Step 1.
B) Click
Record
to record the first data point.
C) Move saddle/T-261A to next point and click

Step 3 - Spindle AOR Parallelism to Lathe Bed Results
Click
Results
to display the Lathe Bed Parallelism Results
table, which shows: a) lathe bed straightness, b)
parallelism of the Spindle AOR to the lathe bed. If the
Headstock Parallelism results are out of tolerance, click
Close
and then click
Move
to open the live Headstock
Alignment screen.
Note:
If the saddle and tailstock are on separate machine
rails, the data can be taken a second time by moving the
T-261A to the tailstock and taking a second set of lathe
bed straightness data.
