The automatic tool setting instrument uses the monitoring and testing equipment of the CNC lathe to work with the position measurement system of the CNC lathe.
Generally speaking, although it is attached to the CNC lathe, it is designed to improve the precision and efficiency of the lathe processing.But as a set of instruments. The research and design plan of automatic tool setting for CNC lathes should include tool setting.
The tool setter is based on the measurement basis of the lathe itself. The machining of the CNC lathe is controlled by the program. The direction of the CNC lathe is parallel to the spindle, that is, the longitudinal direction is the Z axis, and the vertical to the spindle is the X axis.
The coordinate system of the CNC lathe coordinate system and the reference point of the CNC lathe is a coordinate system established with the machine origin as the coordinate origin. The difference between the tool tip position and the programmed position will also cause machining errors. This error can be corrected by the tool position compensation function. The determination of the tool compensation value can effectively improve the accuracy of the trial cutting tool setting. The operator operates as usual , Simple and fast.
