Programing with Romer Arm

WolfMan
I have a few questions about programming with Romer. I have never used it before and was wondering is programming any different from CMM or anything I need to know bedsides its accuracy and repeatability.

So my first q. is Do I need a DCC Alignm. ?

How do i go about locking an Axis, say I need to measure something At X0 Y0, how do I do it with Romer?

Any additional Information info. is appreciated.

  • There is no such thing as "DCC" with a Romer arm. The entire program is manual. By DCC, if you mean a refining alignment, then yes, you still want to do that.

    In "F10" (or F5, I forget) you can turn on probe auto-trigger and define a radius at which the auto-trigger can occur. Programming for a Romer Arm is basically the same as writing a program for a CMM and running it 100% manually, never switching to DCC. Almost all of the same functionality is available. Alignments work the same.

    That is what i wanted to know, so I do ALIGN 1, then I do another Align without switching to DCC? What is the point of the second align if it is all done in Manually.

    Also what about Homing and Calibration, is that any different?
    What about threaded Holes, do I measure them like a circle?
