Thats the IMTS 2006 program for the L720. They were checking the gun drill pilot hole before running a 300.00 drill in to a hole that was not there(LOL).
We have experimented with using G160 to check size in process.
Some of the experiments included using the sub-spindle chuck axis. Not really reliable so we gave up.
One of the problems you run into is that the axis torque will spike up when it starts to move. You can not check torque below this spike valve or you will get "False triggers" as was said. |
