To calibrate the offsets of a milling or lathe tool.
Tool calibration steps
To calibrate the length, follow these steps.
1. Select the tool and the offset to be calibrated. It is not necessary to insert the tool
into the spindle; the CNC carries out this operation if necessary.
2. Define the data defining the calibration. To calibrate a milling tool, use the
horizontal softkey menu to select the desired operation.
3. Press the [CYCLE START] key to start the calibration. The CNC calibrates the
tool making all the necessary movements; there is no need to manually approach
the tool. If necessary, the CNC makes the tool change.
4. After the calibration It updates the tool table data.
