1. Outline
In 2 spindle lathe which has the back spindle, each spindle has the workpiece
coordinate system for itself. By using this function, it is available to set
automatically the tool offset and the Z-axis workpiece origin offset corresponding
to each work coordinate system with the touch sensor.
This function is the additional option. This function needs the following
functions.
− Direct input of offset value measured B (−J933)
− Workpiece Coordinate System (−J894)
2. Touch Sensor
This touch sensor makes contact in two directions in each axis, and outputs four
signals when it detects a tool contact. The contact faces are selected according to
the tool nose figures to be measured.
a) +MIT1: Contact to X-axis (+) contact face (Contact in X + direction)
b) −MIT1: Contact to X-axis (−) contact face (Contact in X – direction)
c) +MIT2: Contact to Z-axis (+) contact face (Contact in Z + direction)
d) −MIT2: Contact to Z-axis (−) contact face (Contact in Z – direction)

3. Setting of Tool Offset Value
Determine a specific point on the machine tool as the measuring reference
position. In advance, set the distance from this point to the measuring position
(contact face of the touch sensor) as a reference value, using parameter No. 5015
to 5018 and No. 5056 to 5059. Select the tool whose offset value is to be
measured, and bring it to touch the sensor, receiving a contact detection signal
(tool compensation value write signal). The mechanical coordinate value is the
distance from the tool nose position of the measuring tool at the mechanical
reference (home) position to the measuring position; set the difference between
this value and the reference value (parameter setting) into the tool offset value
memory as the tool geometry offset value. The corresponding tool wear offset
value becomes 0.
(Tool offset value to be set)
= (Mechanical coordinate value when tool compensation value write signal
has become “1”)
– (Reference value (parameter value) corresponding to the tool
compensation value write signal)
The tool offset numbers are divided into two parts for spindle 1 and spindle 2 by
the parameter No. 5053 are used.

The tool offset number can be selected by the parameter No. 5005#5 (QNI)
manually or automatically.
•QNI=0 (Manual selection)
Set the cursor to the desired tool compensation number by operating the MDI
(such as page and cursor keys).
•QNI=1 (Automatic selection)
In the offset write mode, the cursor is set to the desired tool compensation
number, using the tool compensation number input signal.
For spindle 1, the cursor is set to a tool compensation number selected by the
input signal.
For spindle 2, the cursor is set to the sum of the value specified in parameter
No. 5053 and the tool compensation number selected by the input signal. In
this case, the MDI cannot be used to change the cursor position on the offset
screen.
Note
If the tool compensation number specified by the tool compensation number
input signal is out of range, the last tool compensation amount memory
number for each spindle is set up.

• Basic Procedure to Set
Tool Offset Value
The tool offset value is automatically set to the tool offset memory by the
following operation.
The distance between the measured reference position, which is the tool nose
position of the standard tool or the imaginary position , and the tool nose
position of the actual used tool is set as the tool offset value.
(1) Select the spindle measuring the tool offset by the measured spindle
select signal (G040.5)
(2) Execute manual reference position return.
By executing manual reference position return, a machine coordinate
system is established. The tool offset value is computed on the machine
coordinate system.
(3) Select manual handle mode or manual continuous feed mode and set the
tool compensation value write mode select signal GOQSM to “1”. The
CRT display is automatically changed to the tool offset screen
(geometry), and the “OFST” indicator starts blinking in the status
indication area in the bottom of the screen, which informs that the tool
compensation value writing mode is ready.
Then the measured spindle check signal S1MES (F062.3) or S2MES
(F062.3) is set to “1”.
Note
After that, the measured spindle select signal S2TLS (G040.5) cannot be
changed until the tool compensation value write mode select signal GOQSM
(G039.7) is changed to “0”.
(4)
(5)
Select a tool to be measured.
Move the cursor to the desired offset number by manual or automatic
operation.
(6) Near the tool to the sensor by manual operation.
(7) Place the tool edge to a contacting surface of the sensor by manual
handle feed. Bring the tool edge in contact with the sensor. This causes
the tool compensation value writing signals (+MIT1, –MIT1, +MIT2 or –
MIT2) to input to CNC. The tool compensation value writing signal is
set to “1”, and the :
i) The axis is interlocked in this direction and its feeding is stopped.
ii) The tool offset value extracted by the tool offset memory (tool
geometry offset value) which corresponds to the offset number
shown by the cursor is set up.
(8) For both X-axis and Z-axis, their offset value are set by the operations
(5) and (6). The offset value is set to X-axis or Z-axis coinciding with the
cursor.
(9) Repeat operations (4) to (8) for all necessary tools.
(10) Set the tool compensation value writing mode signal GOQSM to “0”.
i) The writing mode is canceled and the blinking “OFST” indicator
light.
ii) The measured spindle check signal S1MES (F062.3) or S2MES
(F062.4) is set to “0”.

4. Setting of Z-axis Work Origin Offset (G54∼
∼G59)
In 2 spindle lathe which has the back spindle, each spindle has the workpiece
coordinate system for itself.
By assigning any G code from G54 to G59 for each workpiece coordinate system,
this function set Z-axis work origin offset of them automatically.
[Z-axis work origin offset]
= − ([Z-axis tool geometry offset] − [Z-axis machine coordinate value])
Any G code from G54 to G59 can be selected manually or automatically by the
parameter No. 5051#1(WNI).
•WNI=0 (Manual selection)
Set the cursor to the desired workpiece coordinate system G54 to G59 by
operating the MDI (such as page and cursor keys).
Note
You cannot set the value to the external workpiece origin offset (EXT).
When the cursor coincides with the external workpiece origin offset (EXT),
the warning “ ”Write inhibited” occurs in setting the work origin offset value
write signal to 1.
•WNI=1 (Automatic selection)
Set the parameter No. 5054 and No.5055 in advance to the G code number of
the workpiece coordinate system corresponding with them. CNC select the
workpiece coordinate system automatically by their parameters in the
workpiece origin offset write mode.
NOTE
If the value set in this parameter is 0, or if the value falls outside the valid data
range, 54 is assumed for the workpiece coordinate system memory for spindle
1, while 57 is assumed for the workpiece coordinate system memory for
spindle 2.
The tool offset number used for measurement is selected manually or
automatically by the setting of the parameter No.5005#5. (QNI).
•QNI=0 (Manual selection)
Specify the desired tool compensation number in parameter No. 5020.
•QNI=1 (Automatic selection)
The cursor is set to the desired tool compensation number, using the tool
compensation number input signal.
For spindle 1, the cursor is set to a tool compensation number selected by
the input signal.
For spindle 2, the cursor is set to the sum of the value specified in parameter
No. 5053 and the tool compensation number selected by the input signal is
used.

• Basic Procedure to Set Z-axis
workpiece origin offset Value
The Z-axis workpiece origin offset value is automatically set by the following
operation. This has to be performed after measurement of the tool geometry
offset value.
(1) Select the spindle measuring the tool offset by the measured spindle
select signal (G040.5)
(2) Execute manual reference position return.
By executing manual reference position return, a machine coordinate
system is established. The Z-axis work piece coordinate offset value is
computed on the machine coordinate system.
(3) Set the workpiece origin offset value write mode select signal WOQSM
(G039.6) to “1”.
The CRT display is automatically changed to the work coordinate
system setting screen, and the “OFST” indicator starts blinking in the
status indication area in the bottom of the screen, which informs that
the workpiece origin offset value write mode is ready.
Then the measured spindle check signal S1MES (F062.3) or S2MES
(F062.3) is set to “1”.
Note
After that, the measured spindle select signal S2TLS (G040.5) cannot be
changed until the workpiece origin offset value write mode select signal
WOQSM (G039.6) is changed to “0”.

The tool offset number corresponding to the tool required for
measurement, shall be set in the parameter (No.5020) in advance. The
tool offset number can also be set automatically by setting the tool offset
number input signal (with parameter No.5005#5(QNI)=1).
Near the tool to an end face of the workpiece.
Place the tool edge to the end face (sensor) of the workpiece using
manual operation. When the tool edge contacts the end face of the
workpiece, input the workpiece origin offset write signal WOSET
(G040#7). The Z–axis the workpiece origin offset is automatically set.
Release the tool.
Set the workpiece origin offset value write mode signal WOQSM (G39.6)
to “0”.

Input signal
Each of these signals inhibits the tool from being fed along the corresponding
axis during manual operation. When signal GOQSM for selecting the mode for
writing tool compensation is set to “1”, the manual feed is inhibited and also the
tool geometry compensation along the axis is automatically calculated and the
result is set in tool compensation memory.
When these signals are turned “1”, the control unit operates as follows:
• Inhibits tools from being fed along the corresponding axis during manual
operation.
+MIT1: Inhibits the tool from being manually fed in the positive direction
along the X-axis.
–MIT1 : Inhibits the tool from being manually fed in the negative
direction along the X-axis.
+MIT2 : Inhibits the tool from being manually fed in the positive direction
along the Z-axis.
–MIT2 : Inhibits the tool from being manually fed in the negative
direction along the Z-axis.
• When signal GOQSM for selecting the mode for writing tool compensation is
turned “1”, the manual feed interlock signal also automatically calculates the
tool geometry compensation for the tool compensation number pointed to by
the cursor and sets the result in tool compensation memory.
Note
This signal is used as the manual feed interlock signal in each axis direction.
