1.8 Measurement principle

1.8 Measurement principle
Flying measurement
The principle of "flying measurement" is implemented in the SINUMERIK control. The probe
signal is processed directly on the NC so that the delay when acquiring measured values is
minimal. This permits a higher measuring speed for the prescribed measuring precision and
time needed for measuring is reduced.
Connecting probes
Two inputs for connecting touch trigger probes are provided on the I/O device interface of
the SINUMERIK control systems.
