Process

During the cycle, all active offsets must be suppressed using #SUPPRESS OFFSETS except for tool offsets to ensure uniform positioning during alignment, calibration and measuring.

Position the tool above the measuring station as centrally as possible either manually or in automatic mode.

1. The reference tool is positioned simultaneously in the X and Y directions above the configured focal point of the laser.
2. The reference tool moves to the configured starting point of the measurement in Z.
3. The reference tool is moved in the XY direction by half the specified measuring distance.
4. The focal point of the laser is detected in the Z direction at increased measuring speed.
5. The focal point of the laser is determined in the Z direction at reduced measuring speed (increased measuring speed/2).
6. A precision measurement is executed in the Z direction at slower measuring speed.
7. The reference tool is positioned next to the laser and lowered.
8. The focal point of the laser is detected in the XY direction at increased measuring speed.
9. The focal point of the laser is detected in the XY direction at reduced measuring speed (increased measuring speed/2).
10. A lateral precision measurement in XY is executed.
11. The reference tool is moved in the opposite direction in the XY direction by the specified measuring distance.
12. The reference tool moves to the configured starting point in Z.
13. Points 4 to 10 are repeated.
14. The reference tool moves to the configured starting point in Z.
15. The reference tool is returned to the starting point position.
