NOTE • The three points that are measured should be spaced as far apart from each other as
possible on the circumference in order to measure the circle precisely.
• The X and Y coordinate results indicating the circle’s center position vary depending on
the position and orientation of the model workpiece on the XY table. In order to obtain
measurement results that match the dimensions shown in the section titled “Model
Workpiece”, before starting the measurement, perform the operation described in
Section 3.2 “Aligning Part Coordinate System Using Edges as Reference”.

TIP • If an incorrect position was measured, it is possible to cancel the measured point data
by pressing the [CANCEL] key prior to entering the last measurement point. If the
[CANCEL] key is held down, the system returns to the standby state for the first
measurement point.
• The last measurement point cannot be canceled. If the last measurement point is not
correct, redo the measurement.

Aligning Part Coordinate
System
This chapter presents practice on the procedures for aligning the
part coordinate system using the model workpiece.

3.1 Aligning Part Coordinate System
When the data processing unit is turned on, the coordinate values in the coordinate system
matching the moving directions of the XY table are output as measurement results. (See Fig.
3-1-1.)
Y
(x, y)

(0, 0)

Fig. 3-1-1
Therefore, in order to correctly evaluate information such as the center coordinates of a circle
on a workpiece as dimensions, the coordinate system must be aligned to match the workpiece’s
position and orientation.
The aligned coordinate system is called the part coordinate system (PCS). (See Fig. 3-1-2.)
Y

(x, y)

(0, 0)

Fig. 3-1-2
Once the part coordinate system is set, it is possible to obtain precise measurements and
calculations even if the workpiece’s orientation is not adjusted to be parallel with the moving
directions of the XY table.

Origin

Once the part coordinate system is
completed, coordinate values are
defined from the origin, which serves as
a reference.
The part coordinate system established
in this example matches the coordinate
system shown in the section titled
“Model Workpiece”. Therefore, you can
refer to the drawing in that section while
practicing measurements.

TIP See Chapter 5 of the “Software Guide” for further details about the coordinate system
alignment functions.

NOTE When measuring edge (A), note the order in which the measurements are performed, as
the direction of the coordinate system’s reference axis varies depending on the
measurement order.

AI Measurement
This chapter presents practice for measurements utilizing artificial
intelligence (AI), using the model workpiece.

5.1 AI Measurement Function
The AI measurement (Artificial Intelligence measurement) is a function of automatically
recognizing the type of the measured basic feature, such as a circle, a straight line, etc. from
measured points data. The following types of basic feature can be automatically recognized by
the system using the AI function.
