About Calibration Data
In the
Machine Calibration Screen
, data can be entered to compensate for differences between
measured data and expected results. For example, slight changes in positioning may occur after
changing to a new tool.
Data is entered into the
Offset
box and combined to achieve the
Actual
parameter.The results are
stored in permanent memory.
Running a Reference Cut
If you notice any changes in the cut locations, run a reference cut. Run a known good profile.
After the trim is machined, measure the results:
• The
Base
is the start up reference.
• The differences between the template and the measured (either positive or negative)
are entered into the
Offset
entries.
• The
Actual
is the combination of the
Base
and the
Offset
entries which is the final
result.
About Motion of Servo Motor
The figure below shows the motion of the 'X' axis servo motor. Use the figure below as a refer-
ence when calibrating the machine. The reverse direction equates to a negative number and the
forward direction equates to a positive number when entering data into the calibration menus. Use
this information as a guide to help input the directional data in the calibration routines.
Red = Reverse Direction
Green = Forward Direction
