SETTING OF COORDINATE SYSTEM E-41
6.
The presetter arm clamp signal is turned on when the locking lever is turned to the lock
position with the presetter arm installed to the presetter arm installation base.
Axis movement is enabled when the indicator in the presetter mode switch
is lit with the
presetter arm clamp signal ON. In this case, rapid traverse rate is clamped at 25% or less.
Axis movement is not allowed even when the locking lever is in the lock position unless the
presetter arm or the cover is installed to the presetter arm installation base.
7.
If the WORK OFFSET screen is not displayed even if the indicator
in the presetter
mode switch is lit, check the following items if they are satisfied.
The protection covers are mounted to the presetter bases on both the turret 1 and
turret 2.
The locking levers for the protection covers on both the turret 1 and turret 2 are
tightened.

Precautions on Using the Manual In-machine Tool Presetter
The items to be observed when operating the in-machine tool presetter are indicated below.
1.
Never attempt mounting/removal of the presetter arm in the presetter mode (the
indicator in the presetter mode switch
is lit). If attempted, the tool geometry
offset data could be changed depending on the contact conditions of the
connection part at the base and the presetter arm. If machining is executed
although the tool geometry offset data has been changed, it will cause
interference of the tools, tool holders, and/or turret head with the workpiece,
chuck, and/or fixture, causing damage to the machine.
2.
Do not press the presetter measurement switch
without cutting the
workpiece end face under the following status:
The presetter arm has been removed from the base.
The protection cover is installed to the base.
The indicator in the presetter mode switch
is lit.
If the presetter measurement switch
is pressed in such state, the work shift
data cannot be set correctly. If the program is executed while the input work shift
data is not correct, the tool, tool holder, and/or the turret head is hit against the
workpiece, chuck, or fixture, causing damage to the machine, or the tool may not
reach the workpiece.
3.
When installing the presetter arm to the machine or removing it from the machine
or container, pay sufficient care not to give shocks to the presetter arm, especially
to the sensor. If shocks are applied to the sensor or presetter arm, the sensor
may be damaged or the presetter arm may be distorted, making it impossible to
set the appropriate tool geometry offset data.
