Measuring tools at lathes

Tool probe
Figure 1-6
Tool probes have their own data fields in the general setting data:
● For machine-related measurement/calibration:
● For workpiece-related measurement/calibration:
The triggering points (switching points) are entered here. Approximate values must be
entered here before calibration – if cycles are used in automatic mode. The cycle will then
recognize the position of the probe.
The default setting has data fields for 6 probes.
In addition to turning tools, drills and mills can also be measured.
