Example) Below a numerical example on how to set tool offset data.
40
10
Origin of workpiece
coordinate system
ctual Position at the touching point:
X=45.0 (value of system variable #5041)
Z=15.0 (value of system variable #5042)
Current tool offset value:
X=30.0
Z=5.0
(1) Touch with the tool the workpiece side moving in X coordinate,
and measure the diameter of workpiece.
(2) In this example the diameter is 40, then input 40 in input item X,
and push INPUT (
) key.
(3) Push the SET button.
Result: (Actual position of the X axis, 45)-(diameter of
workpiece, 40)+ (current offset value X, 30) = (new X-OFS
offset value, 35)
(4) Touch with the tool the workpiece face side moving in Z
coordinate.
(5) Insert the Z coordinate of workpiece face in input item Z, in this
example Z coordinate of workpiece face is 10, then input 10 in
input item Z and push INPUT (
) key.
(6) Push the SET button.
Result: (Actual position of the Z axis, 15)-( the Z coordinate of
workpiece face, 10.0) + (current offset value Z, 5)= (new X-OFS
offset value, 10).
(7) Move to the tool selection screen and push the Tool Selection
soft key.
