Measure angle in X axis (C axis)

Determining the twist of the workpiece about the Z axis by two lateral measurements along the X axis.

If no C axis is configured, call the cycle without transferring @P7. The twist in C can be manually transferred to the related zero offset by evaluating the output variables in the post-program.

Before calling the cycle, the touch probe must be positioned on the X and Y coordinates of the first measuring point. A clearance movement in Z can be parameterised between the measuring points.

The calculated angle corresponds to the twist of the workpiece about the Z axis in relation to the Y axis.

The reference angle (@P12) described the desired angle or the angle to be achieved. The reference angle (@P12) is included in the calculation with the calculated C value to determine the output angle (V.CYC.SysRetC): Calculated C value - @P12 = output value (V.CYC.SysRetC). Example 1: Calculated C value = 45 degrees, @P12 = 45 degrees, output angle (V.CYC.SysRetC) = 0 Example 2: Calculated C value = 45 degrees, @P12 = 0 degrees (V.CYC.SysRetC= 45

The coordinate system can be adapted accordingly by using the #CS command (see programming example.

To obtain correct measurement results, the requirements for measuring must be adhered to.
