3-1 Press the function key
OFFSET
SETTING
or the soft key [OFFSET] to
display the tool offset screen. If geometry compensation
values and wear offset values are separately specified,
display the screen for either of them.
3-2 Move the cursor to the set offset number using cursor keys.
3-3 Press the address key
Z
to be set.
3-4 Key in the measured value (β).
3-5 Press the soft key [MESURE].
The difference between measured value β and the
coordinate is set as the offset value.
- Setting of X axis offset value
4 Cut surface B in manual mode.
5 Release the tool in the Z-axis direction without moving the
X-axis and stop the spindle.
6 Measure the diameter α of surface B.
Set this value as the measured value along the X-axis for the
desired offset number in the same way as when setting the value
along the Z-axis.
7 Repeat above procedure the same time as the number of the
necessary tools.
The offset value is automatically calculated and set.
For example, in case α=69.0 when the coordinate value of surface B
in the diagram above is 70.0, set 69.0 [MEASURE] at offset No. 2.
In this case, 1.0 is set as the X-axis offset value to offset No. 2.
Explanation
- Offset values for a program created in diameter programming
Enter diameter values for the offset values for axes for which diameter
programming is used.
- Tool geometry offset value and tool wear offset value
If measured values are set on the tool geometry offset screen, all offset
values become geometry offset values and all wear offset values are
set to 0. If measured values are set on the tool wear offset screen, the
differences between the measured offset values and the current wear
offset values become the new offset values.
- Release of both axes
When the record button is provided on the machine side, the tool can
be released in the directions of the two axes by setting bit 2 (PRC) of
parameter No. 5005 or using the position record signal. For details
on the position record signal, refer to the manual issued by the
machine tool builder.
