B-63344EN/02 OPERATION 3.DESCRIPTION OF COORDINATE
- 21 -
At the time of changing workpiece and its length is changed, instead
of measuring the above geometry offset value for all tools, Workpiece
Shift offset compensation is used for shifting the workpiece
coordinate origin point.
In the following sample drawing, WSF
Z
means the distance with sigh
between the end face of the old workpiece and the new one. This
distance data is set into the Z-workpiece shift offset amount.
By using the Set-up Guidance, described later in Chapter 9, workpiece
shift amount are automatically set.
