General information on workpiece production
Checking the machine with CYCLE996:
Create a new program to measure the kinematics.
In the part program editor, select the >> MEASURE MILL > MEASURE WORKPIECE > 3D
> KINEMATICS softkeys in the Programs operating area.
Create a new swivel data record (where the rotary axis is swiveled)
positions should create an equilateral triangle, i.e. each one should involve a swivel of 120°.
Select the rotary axis to be measured
Assign parameters to the measuring process
Press the Calculate softkey once all rotary axes have been measured
After pressing the softkey, the Calculate kinematics dialog opens. The following options are
available in terms of how you then utilize the measurement results:
Measure only (measure and calculate vectors)
Enter (measure, calculate vectors, and enter vectors in swivel data record for compensation
purposes)
1st measurement
Please take care when modifying the swivel data. This affects the kinematics directly and
if an error is made with regard to the compensation value, this can result in damage to the
machine during operation.
