21.10 Measuring cycles and measurement functions
Workpiece measurement
For milling:
● The probe has been inserted in the tool spindle.
● The probe has been selected in the tool list as type 7xx (probe).
● The probe is activated as tool in the current NC channel.
Tool measurement
To measure tools, an appropriate probe must be located in the machine space so that this can
be reliably and safely reached with a tool in the spindle.
The following tool types are supported with measure tool:
● Milling technology: Tool types 1xx and 2xx
● Turning technology: Tool types 5xx, 1xx and 2xx
For the specified tool types, the tool lengths and the tool radii can be measured.
