- Measuring the X-/Y-axis workpiece origin offset based on a reference hole
1 Connect a measurement probe, fitted with a sensor, to the
spindle.
2 Press mode selection switch HANDLE or JOG.
3 Set the workpiece origin offset measurement mode switch on the
machine operator's panel to ON. The workpiece origin offset
screen appears and "WOFS" blinks in the status display at the
bottom of the screen, indicating that the preparation required
prior to measuring the workpiece origin offset has been
completed.
4 Position the cursor to the workpiece origin offset number to be
used to store the offset (any of G54 to G59). No problem will
arise even if the cursor is positioned to the offset for other than
the X- or Y-axis.
5 Move the tool by means of manual handle feed or jog feed until
the measurement probe touches the circumference of the hole.
Do not move the tool along more than one axis at any one time.
6 As soon as the sensor detects contact with the circumference,
input a skip signal to the machine, thus stopping the axial
movement of manual handle feed or jog feed. Simultaneously,
the position at which feed stopped is stored as the first
measurement point. The machine coordinates of the stored
measurement point are displayed at the bottom right of the screen,
as follows:
