I - 3 Milling Specific Oper
ations
Incremental Distance Preset
Example: Drilling by traversing to display value zero with
incremental positioning.
„ Hole 1 at: X = 1” / Y = 1”
„ Distance from hole 1 to hole 2: X I = 1.5” / YI = 1.5”
„ Hole depth: Z = –0.5”
„ Operating mode: DISTANCE-TO-GO (INC)
8 Press the PRESET soft key.
8 Press the X axis key.
8 Enter nominal position value for hole 1: X = 1” and ensure no tool
radius is active. Note that these presets are Absolute Presets.
8 Press the DOWN arrow key.
8 Enter nominal position value for hole 1: Y = 1”.
8 Ensure no tool radius compensation is showing.
8 Press the DOWN arrow key.
8 Enter the nominal position value for the hole depth: Z = -0.5”. Press
ENTER hard key.
8 Drill hole 1: Traverse the X, Y and Z axis until the display value is
zero. The square in the near zero warning is now centered between
the two triangular marks. Retract the drill.
Enter the coordinates in incremental dimensions. These
are indicated in the following (and on the screen) with a
preceding
I (Incremental). The datum is the
workpiece zero.
