ADDENDUM "010119" FOR:
OF FAGOR DRO MODEL:
6.2 References.
The references are offsets that may be added to the tool number. These references correspond to different supports,
mounting positions or tool holders where the tool to be measured will be.
There are 52 references, from REF 0 through REF 51.
Each reference has certain properties that will be applied to all the tools they are assigned to.
When not using these properties, just assign REF0 or home point to the tools being measured. This reference "0" has
neither offsets nor inverted counting directions nor coordinate exchanges.
Reference properties.
•
Offset. It corresponds to an offset along the axes (X, Z) and referred to the "0" reference position that is always
assumed as origin. The example of figure 1 shows how the same tool may have different offset values associated
with it.
•
Display in radius or diameter.
Depending on the tool type being used or where will be mounted. One may select to display the X axis of that tool in
radius or in diameters (it displays twice the real value).
•
Swap X and Z axes
This property is especially useful for drilling tools or tools whose actual mounting position on the machining
machine is not the same as the position where they are measured in the measuring machine. See figure 2. Using this
property solves this problem.
•
Counting direction of the axes
Same as the property of swapping X and Z, this property helps making the positions of special mounting of tools
whose actual tool position in the machine position and the one at the measuring unit are inverted.
