Setting machine parameters
Before you start working with the measuring
cycles, check all machine parameters defined
in
ProbeSettings > CfgToolMeasurement and
CfgTTRoundStylus.
The TNC uses the feed rate for probing defined in
probingFeed when measuring a tool at standstill.
When measuring a rotating tool, the TNC automatically calculates
the spindle speed and feed rate for probing.
The spindle speed is calculated as follows:
n =
maxPeriphSpeedMeas / ( r • 0.0063) where
n:
Spindle speed [rpm]
maxPeriphSpeedMeas:
Maximum permissible cutting speed in
m/min
r:
Active tool radius in mm
The feed rate for probing is calculated from:
v = measuring tolerance • n with
v:
Feed rate for probing in mm/min
Measuring tolerance
Measuring tolerance [mm], depending
on
maxPeriphSpeedMeas
n:
Shaft speed [rpm]
