4.2 Probe Mounting
- Mount the OMP40-2 probe into the machine spindle using the appropriate tool holder.
- Ensure the probe is securely seated and aligned.
- Refer to your machine tool's manual for specific spindle mounting procedures.
4.3 System Pairing and Calibration
The OMP40-2 probe communicates optically with a receiver unit on the machine. Follow these general steps:
- Power on the machine tool and the probe system receiver.
- Initiate the pairing sequence as per the machine tool controller's instructions and the OMP40-2 quick start guide.
- Perform a calibration routine using a known reference artifact (e.g., a calibration sphere) to establish probe offsets and ensure measurement accuracy.
- Verify successful communication and calibration before proceeding with measurements.
5. Funtzionamendu-argibideak
The Renishaw OMP40-2 probe is designed for automated measurement cycles. Operation is typically controlled via the machine tool's CNC program.
5.1 Workpiece Set-up
- Use the probe to accurately locate workpiece datums (e.g., edges, bores, surfaces) before machining operations.
- This allows for precise alignment of the workpiece with the machine's coordinate system, reducing manual setup time and errors.
5.2 In-Process Measurement
- Integrate probing cycles within machining programs to measure critical features during the manufacturing process.
- This enables adaptive machining, where subsequent operations can be adjusted based on real-time measurements, improving part quality and reducing scrap.
5.3 Post-Process Inspection
- After machining, use the probe to perform final inspection of part dimensions and geometry directly on the machine.
- This provides immediate feedback on part quality and can eliminate the need for separate inspection steps.
Oharra: Always ensure the probe stylus is clean and undamaged before any measurement cycle. Refer to your machine tool's programming manual for specific G-code or macro instructions for probing cycles.
6. Mantentzea
Regular maintenance ensures the accuracy and reliability of your Renishaw OMP40-2 probe.
6.1 Garbiketa
- Zundaren gorputza: Wipe the probe body with a clean, soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Larrua: Gently clean the stylus tip with a lint-free cloth. Ensure no debris is present on the ruby ball.
- Optical Window: Keep the optical transmission window clean and free from coolant or debris to ensure reliable signal transmission.
6.2 Bateria ordezkatzea
- Replace batteries promptly when the low battery indicator is observed (refer to your machine interface for indicator details).
- Always use recommended 1/2 AA Lithium batteries for optimal performance and battery life.
