Setting Tool Length
Please refer to the 5-Axis manual for Setting Work tool length on a 5-Axis machine.
1.
Make sure nobody can be harmed by any machine movements and that there is nothing that
obstructs machine movements.
2.
Make sure it is safe to drop the spindle or drill, whichever applies. That is, make sure the Z axis is
high enough that dropping the spindle or the drill will not cause it to hit anything.
3.
Drop the spindle or drill for setting tool length.
4.
Jog the machine to a desired Z height. Usually on top of the material. The X, Y coordinate does not
matter.
