Measuring three circular spigots
The workpiece is located anywhere on the work table and has three spigots. Four points are
automatically measured at the three spigots and the spigot centers are calculated from them.
A circle is placed through the three center points and the circle center and circle diameter are
determined.
When an angular offset is selected, the base angle of rotation α can also be determined.
Measuring four circular spigots
The workpiece is located anywhere on the work table and has four spigots. four points are
automatically measured at the four spigots and the spigot centers are calculated from them.
Two spigot center points are each connected diagonally and the intersection point of the two
lines is then determined. When an angular offset is selected, the base angle of rotation α can
also be determined.
Note
"Measuring only" for automatic measuring
If "Measuring only" is selected as offset target, then instead of the "Set WO" softkey, the
"Calculate" softkey is displayed.
The measuring versions "Rectangular spigot" and "1 circular spigot" are an exception. For
these single-point measurements, for "Measuring only" neither the "Set WO" softkey nor the
"Calculate" softkey is listed.
Note
You can only measure 2, 3, and 4 circular spigots automatically.
Precondition
You can insert any tool in the spindle for scratching when measuring the workpiece zero
manually.
An electronic workpiece probe is inserted in the spindle and activated when measuring the
workpiece zero automatically.
Procedure
1.
Select the "Machine" operating area and press the <JOG> key.
2.
Press the "Workpiece zero" softkey.
3.
Press the "Rectangular spigot" softkey.
