Machine controller
Probe and calibration sphere
The operator carries out the following steps:
- Install calibration sphere on machine table.
- Move rotary axes to 0.
- Clamp probe in tool holder; enter probe tool length.
- Use manual block or JOG to position the probe approximately centrally and at a clearance of several centimetres above the sphere.
Notice

Probe and sphere can be swapped. The layout is irrelevant for the cycle. The documentation only describes the case described above.
