Requirements
The following requirements must be met in order to use CYCLE996 (Measure kinematics):
● SIEMENS measuring cycles package is installed
● Workpiece probe is calibrated
● Calibration ball is mounted
● Oriented tool carrier is initialized (MD 18088: MM_NUM_TOOL_CARRIER > 0)
● The basic geometry of the machine (X, Y, Z) is rectangular and referenced
● Defined position of the rotary axes involved in the transformation
● Defined traverse directions in compliance with the standard of all axes involved in the

Measurement procedure
5.10.2.1
Proceed as follows
The "Measure kinematics" function involving the use of CYCLE996 is implemented by
means of the following basic procedure:
1. Measure a rotary axis
2. Measure a second rotary axis (if this exists)
3. Calculate the swivel data records (calculate kinematics)
4. The calculated data is activated automatically or with the aid of the user
The user (preferably the machine manufacturer) should ensure compliance with the specified
sequence.
If the position of the calibration ball within the machine can be specified as an inherent part
of the design, then it will be possible to store the entire kinematic measurement process
(carried out using CYCLE996) as a part program, which is extremely advantageous. As a
result, the user can carry out measurement of the kinematics under a set of predefined
conditions at any given point in time.
5.10.2.2
Measuring an individual rotary axis
Process
The following steps must be carried out in order to measure a rotary axis:
● Mount the calibration ball on the machine table (user)
● Define and approach the three ball positions with the rotary axis that is to be measured
● Specify and approach the three ball positions with the probe in a linear movement/in
● Using CYCLE996, scan all three ball positions of the calibration ball with the probe.
