On a Fanuc control, there are two nearly identical screens: one for setting geometry offsets and another for setting wear offsets. Wear offsets can be used for at least tree reasons: 1. To correct for actual wear on the tool. 2. To hit tight tolerance with the same tool on more than one diameter. A different wear offset is used for each diameter. 3. So that the program can use a nominal dimension. Example: the drawing uses unilateral tolerance of 3.000 +0.002 - 0.000. Instead of programming 3.001, you can program 3.0 and use a wear offset of 0.001. -- Chris Lesiak [email protected] Any opinions expressed are those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of his employer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
