About Calibration

KVAL Operation Manual

4-2

Calibration is all about the confidence in the end results of your manufacturing process. Calibra-
tion assures you that your cut parameters are accurate and within the specified limits.

If slight discrepancies in the machining of a door are observed, the built in KVAL calibration can
adjust the tooling to fix the issue.

In troubleshooting, calibration can be an essential step in solving the issue.

About the Calibration Menus and the Calibration Reference Cut

This chapter describes the

Calibration Menus

In the

Calibration Menus

, offsets are entered to calibrate assemblies in the machine.

See “About

the Calibration Tabs” on page 4-3.

Before you Calibrate

Before you start calibration, check for the following common issues.

Is the loaded setup correct for the current cut?

Check tools for wear.

Is the correct Calibration loaded?

Are the stops set up correctly?

When did the problem first start? during a run, at start up.

When was the last calibration?

Is the Door True?

Check for sawdust build-up, which may affect depth.

Note:

KVAL recommends that a test door is run first and checked for specifications

before a full run is started.
