4.10.4.2 Input fields for punch or drill co-ordinates
•
Punch/Drill co-ordinates
•
Nr
This column displays the line number and can not be filled in.
In a list a maximal of 400 different punch/drill co-ordinates can be entered.
•
X
In this column the X-position of the drill holes must be entered. The position of the drill
hole is measured from the zero-position of the profile or in reference to the previous
position, dependent on the input mode.
•
Mode
There are two input modes for the input of the X-positions:
-
Absolute
-
Relative
Absolute input means that all positions are related to the zero point of the material.
This means the beginning of the material. Relative input means that the entered X-
position is related to the previously entered absolute X-position. The absolute mode can
be selected by entering a [A] or [a] in this column, followed by pressing the [ENTER]
key. The relative mode can be selected by entering a [R] or [r] in this column, followed
by pressing the [ENTER] key.
•
y
Dependent on the setting in the material data the y-position of the drill hole must be
entered and measured from the bottom side of the profile or from the middle of the
material. See the description input mode Yy-axis and Zy- Wy-axis in the chapter
Material Data.
•
Unit
Here the unit must be entered with which must be punched or drilled. The machine
knows three units Y, Z and W. The Y-unit is indicated by typing a 'Y', the Z-unit by a
'Z' and the W-unit by typing a 'W'.
-
The Y-unit is the unit above the material.
-
The Z-unit is the unit which is located on the fixed side of the machine.
-
The W-unit is not used.
