Function overview
Function
With this measuring cycle you can measure the dimensions of the following contour
elements on a workpiece using different measuring variants:
• Hole
• Shaft
• Groove
• Web
• Inside rectangle
• Outside rectangle
Measurement is performed paraxially to the workpiece coordinate system.
In some measuring variants defined safety zones are taken into account during the
measuring operation.
CYCLE977 can
• measure the contour elements
and additionally either
• perform an automatic tool offset
for a specified tool based on the differences in diameter or width, or
• a zero offset (ZO) based on the differences between the center positions.
