Touch probe cycles 4xx: fundamentals

Characteristics common to all touch probe cycles for measuring workpiece misalignment

voreinst_num

In Cycles 400, 401, and 402, you can use parameter Q307 Preset value for rotation angle to define whether the measurement result will be corrected by a known angle α (see figure). This enables you to measure the basic rotation against any straight line 1 of the workpiece and to establish the reference to the actual 0° direction 2.

 
Tip

These cycles do not work with 3D ROT! In such a case, use Cycles 14xx. Fundamentals of touch probe cycles 14xx
