Setup
W-meas
This function allows you to shift the workpiece coordinate system.
Workpiece coordinate system that is created at the machining program creation may not match to the coordinate system
that actually programmed or programmed by automatic coordinate system setting. This function allows you to machine with-
out changing the machining program by shifting from the measured coordinate system to the coordinate system that is as-
sumed when the program is created. In addition, workpiece can be machined using the same program even if their shapes
are changed.
The workpiece coordinate system shift value can be designated by manual setting or automatic setting.
Manual setting: Allows you to directly input the workpiece coordinate system shift value from the workpiece coordinate sys-
tem shift screen or select the menu [Measure] to designate the workpiece coordinate system shift value.
Automatic setting: Allows you to designate the workpiece coordinate system shift value with the workpiece measurement
signal.
The manual setting and automatic setting to designate the workpiece coordinate system shift value using the menu [Mea-
sure] are additional specifications.
When this function is enabled, the menu [W-shift] is displayed on the monitor (Monitr) screen. If the menu [W-meas] is se-
lected on the setup (Setup) screen, the setting screen for the workpiece coordinate system shift screen is displayed.
Note
(1) When this function is disabled, the menu [W-shift] is not displayed on the monitor (Monitr) screen. If the menu [W-meas]
is selected on the setup (Setup) screen, the external workpiece setting screen is displayed.
