Execute First And Exchange Calibration; Set Tool Number; Set Workpiece Coordinate - WEIHONG NK280B Manual

Execute First and Exchange Calibration

In essence, this mode is to compensate tool offset to workpiece offset.
In General Double Z Software, you can choose to execute tool calibration for Z1-axis and Z2-axis
separately or together.The setting in the operation of
In General Three-Axis Software, it directly execute tool calibration for Z-axis.
To execute first and exchange calibration:
1. Manually move Z-axis to the surface of workpiece.
2. To define workpiece origin, press Clear.
3. Enter into tool calibration interface:
• Under Auto mode, press State > A > F5.
• Under Jog/Handwheel/Stepping mode, press State > A > F3.
4. Execute first calibration:
• In General Double Z Software, press F1/ F3/F5.
• In General Three-Axis Software, press F1.
The system automatically records the machine coordinate of Z-axis at this moment and
machine tool can machine workpiece.
5. After tool change or tool breakage, execute second calibration:
• In General Double Z Software, press F2/ F4/F6.
• In General Three-Axis Software, press F2.
This operation is not available until first calibration is done.
The system recovers Z-axis workpiece coordinate of current point and machine tool can
continue to machine workpiece.

Set Tool Number

This operation is to set tool number for spindle.
In General Three-Axis Software, to select tool No. for spindle, modify parameter Current Tool No.
In General Double Z Software, to specify the tool for Z1 and Z2-axis by setting tool No.:
1. Press Auto button on operational panel to activate Auto mode.
2. Press State > A > F4 to open Set Tool No. dialog box.
3. Choose the Z-axis.
4. Enter the tool No. for the selected Z-axis.
5. Press Enter to confirm it.

Set Workpiece Coordinate

Workpiece Coordinate meets the following formula:
selecting Z-axis shall prevail.
