Calibrating a 3-D touch trigger probe
Introduction
In order to precisely specify the actual trigger point of a 3-D touch
probe, you must calibrate the touch probe, otherwise the TNC
cannot provide precise measuring results.
Always calibrate a touch probe in the following cases:
Commissioning
Stylus breakage
Stylus exchange
Change in the probe feed rate
Irregularities caused, for example, when the
machine heats up
Change of active tool axis
When you press the OK soft key after calibration,
the calibration values are applied to the active touch
probe. The updated tool data become effective
immediately, and a new tool call is not necessary.
During calibration, the TNC finds the "effective" length of the stylus
and the "effective" radius of the ball tip. To calibrate the 3-D touch
probe, clamp a ring gauge or a stud of known height and known
radius to the machine table.
The TNC provides calibration cycles for calibrating the length and
the radius:
