5. Setup
Follow these general steps for setting up your Renishaw OMP60 probe. For detailed, model-specific instructions, refer to the included Quick-start Guide and the comprehensive Renishaw OMP60 installation manual.
- Spakkjar u Spezzjoni: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect the probe and accessories for any signs of damage.
- Installazzjoni tal-batterija: Access the battery compartment, typically located at the bottom of the probe. Insert the provided AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Securely close the compartment.
- Stylus Attachment: Select the appropriate stylus for your application. Carefully thread the stylus onto the probe's mounting point. Ensure it is securely fastened but do not overtighten.
- Immuntar tas-Sonda: Mount the OMP60 probe into the machine tool spindle or tool holder. Ensure it is seated correctly and securely clamped.
- Optical Receiver Setup: Ensure your Renishaw optical receiver (e.g., OMI-2, OMI-2T) is correctly installed and aligned with the probe's optical transmission window. Refer to the receiver's manual for installation and alignment procedures.
- Machine Control Integration: Configure your machine tool's CNC control system to recognize and communicate with the OMP60 probe. This typically involves setting up probe cycles and offset registers.
- Kalibrazzjoni Inizjali: Perform an initial calibration of the probe using a known reference artifact (e.g., a calibration sphere). This establishes the probe's trigger points and ensures measurement accuracy.
