Calibration in a lathe model
For the lathe tools, it calibrates the tool offsets on each axis. When validating the calibration in one of the offsets, the wear of that offset is reset to zero.
There are two options for the milling tools and may be selected with the following icons.
•Tool length calibration.
This option may be used to update the length value and resets the wear value to zero. It also updates the tool table data.
•Tool offset calibration.
This option may be used to update the value of the offsets on each axis. The offset wears are set to zero.
Validating the calibration.
They are validated from the vertical softkey menu.
It validates the calibration of a milling tool.
It validates the calibration of a lathe tool. It shows an icon for each offset.
When a lathe has a third axis, the calibration on this axis is done using the horizontal softkey menu.
Definition of data
To define the data, place the focus on the relevant data, key in the desired value and press [ENTER].
For a lathe tool.
The nomenclature of the axes depends on the geometrical configuration of the "plane" or "trihedron" axes. For a "plane" configuration, the names of the axes assume the DIN standard for lathes; the X axis as the abscissa axis and the Y axis as the ordinate axis.
Data | Meaning |
|
|
Zp Xp | Dimensions of the reference part being used in the calibration. |
| These coordinates are referred to the main axes of the tool. |
|
|
T | Tool to be calibrated. |
|
|
D | Tool offset to be calibrated. |
|
|
Off Y | Tool offsets on each axis. |
Off X |
|
|
|
Lw | Offset wear on each axis. |

When a lathe has a third axis perpendicular to the work plane ("trihedron" geometrical configuration), the CNC will also show its data and calibration will be possible on that axis. The data of the third axis may be hidden or shown using the horizontal softkey menu.
