Entering traverse limits

The

Traverse limits function must be enabled and

adapted by the machine tool builder.

Refer to your machine manual.

The MOD function

Traverse limits enables you to limit the actually

usable tool path within the maximum traverse range. This enables
you to define protection zones in each axis to protect a component
from collision for example.

To enter traverse limits:

In the MOD menu select the

Machine settings group

Select the

Traverse limits menu

Enter the values of the desired axes as a reference value or load
the momentary position with the

ACTUAL POSITION CAPTURE

soft key

Press the

APPLY soft key

Press the

OK soft key

The protection zone becomes active automatically as
soon as you set a limit in an axis. Settings are kept
even after restarting the control.

You can only deactivate the protection zone by
deleting all values or pressing the

CLEAR ALL soft

key.
