Refer to your machine manual.
KinematicsOpt (software option 48) is required.
KinematicsComp (software option 52) is required.
This function must be enabled and adapted by the machine manufacturer.
To use this cycle, your machine tool builder needs to create and configure a compensation table (*.kco) first and enter some more settings.

Even if your machine was already optimized regarding positioning errors (e.g. via Cycle 451), residual errors at the Tool Center Point (TCP) during tilting of the rotary axes may remain. Such errors occur particularly with swivel-head machines. These can result, for example, from component errors (e.g. a bearing error) with head rotation axes.
Cycle 453 KINEMATICS GRID enables these errors to be detected and compensated in accordance with the tilting axis positions. Options 48 (KinematicsOpt) and 52 (KinematicsComp) are required. With this cycle and using a 3-D TS touch probe, you measure a HEIDENHAIN calibration sphere that you have attached to the machine table. The cycle then moves the touch probe automatically to positions in a grid-line arrangement around the calibration sphere. The machine tool builder defines these tilting axis positions. You can arrange the positions in up to three dimensions. (Each dimension is a rotary axis.) After the probing process on the sphere, compensation of the errors can be performed using a multi-dimensional table. The machine tool builder defines this compensation table (*.kco) and specifies its storage location.
When using Cycle 453, run it at different positions in the workspace. This allows you to check immediately if a compensation with Cycle 453 has the desired positive effect on the machine's accuracy. Only when the desired improvements are achieved with the same compensation values at several positions is such a type of compensation suitable for the respective machine. If this is not the case, then the errors are to be sought outside the rotary axes.
Perform the measurement with Cycle 453 in an optimized condition regarding the rotary axis positioning errors. For this purpose, use e.g. Cycle 451 beforehand.
HEIDENHAIN recommends using the calibration spheres KKH 250 (ID number 655475-01) or KKH 100 (ID number 655475-02), which are particularly rigid and are designed especially for machine calibration. Please contact HEIDENHAIN if you have any questions in this regard.
The control then optimizes the accuracy of your machine. For this purpose, it automatically saves the compensation values resulting from a measurement in a compensation table (*.kco). (This applies to mode Q406=1.)
