Probe to update casting location.


Recommended Posts

I have a casting that is slightly off and would like to probe and adjust axis or pitch, yaw and roll so the machine starts off with the casting in the right orientation.

is this even possible on a HAAS UMC750?

It is possible with macros, as long as you know where the part is within .4" (10mm).  You have to set some variables to compare where it should be to where it is, and then add/subtract the difference to XYZBC.  I don't have examples of code, but I have helped debug some of that code.  And I think there are parameters/code to activate the probe so if you are further than .4" it will sill work.  You will probably have to work thru one axis at a time, and then go back thru them again.  The compare is if the actual value is different from the set value (offset) by less than an acceptable amount then continue, if it is greater than the acceptable deviation then adjust.
