Figure 107: Setting a coordinate system on the corner of a cube
11.
Allows setting offsets for the setting a new coordinate system.
12.
Stylus offset describes the distance between the center of the ruby ball and the FSV of the respective
Hall probe in X, Y and Z. Custom offsets can be set.
13.
Vertical Calibration: The stylus can be also used for an accurate vertical calibration of the system
(distance between the magnet and the sensitive spot of the probe). The procedure is the same as the
one described in the Calibration Tab.
14.
Save scanning position saves the current the touch stylus position will be stored as the scanning start
position (including the offset between the probe’s FSV and the center of the
ruby ball of the touch
stylus).
15.
Runout measurements allows measuring the runout/eccentricity of an object measured on the rotary
stage. The object will rotate, and the touch stylus will move into the selected direction (±X, ±Y, ±Z)
touch at this point and measure the position. This will be repeated for the selected number of points
during a full rotation and the result (peak to peak eccentricity) displayed.
16.
Align an object on the rotary stage by a furrow, notch or hole.
Example: Align a furrow with the mapper X axis:
o
Press Go to Center: The stylus will be positioned above the center of rotation.
o
Rotate the object until the furrow is more or less aligned with the axis.
o
Move the probe in Y so it is above the furrow and down into the furrow.
o
Press align hole, select 1 hole and follow the instructions.
o
After the procedure the furrow will be precisely aligned with the X axis.
17.
Allows changing the diameter of the ruby ball.
