Measuring variants
3.6 Measure tool (milling)
Parameter
Description
Tool offset
Direction of the tool offset axis for large tools
● No
● In X
● In Y
Spindle reversal
Compensation of eccentricity through spindle reversal
● Yes
● No
V
Lateral offset (only for measuring axis "Z", for G17)
The offset is active when calibrating the 3rd measuring axis, if the calibration tool diam‐
eter is larger than the upper diameter of the probe. Here, the tool is offset from the center
of the probe by the tool radius, minus the value of V. An offset axis must be specified.

The "Spindle reversal" function is shown if bit 11 is set in the general SD 54762 $SNS_MEA_FUNCTION_MASK_TOOL .

–
Calibration in the 3rd axis: Calibration is performed, centered about the probe.
–
Calibration in the plane: The precise probe center is not defined in the other axis
to the measuring axis.
–
Calibration in the plane: Prior to the calibration in Y, the precise probe center in
X is determined.
