17.6 CALIBRATE TS (Cycle 460, DIN/ISO:
G460)
With Cycle 460 you can calibrate a triggering 3-D touch probe
automatically on an exact calibration sphere. You can do radius
calibration alone, or radius and length calibration.
1 Clamp the calibration sphere and check for potential collisions.
2 In the touch probe axis, position the touch probe over the
calibration sphere, and in the working plane, approximately over
the sphere center.
3 The first movement in the cycle is in the negative direction of
the touch probe axis.
4 Then the cycle determines the exact center of the sphere in the
touch probe axis.
Please note while programming:
HEIDENHAIN only gives warranty for the function of
the probing cycles if HEIDENHAIN touch probes are
used.
