Execute Automatic Centering

If the length of the tube is too long, the part between the front and rear chucks will suffer from bending deflection. Thus, after cutting a length of the tube, centering data before machining is no longer applicable. To fix the deflection and ensure cutting accuracy, after cutting a certain length, the system will automatically do leveling or centering and execute breakpoint resume after centering is done.

To execute automatic centering, do the following:

1. To add centering marks and do centering, in the menu bar, click Technics → Centering Mark, and select how to add centering mark:

   • To specify the position for levelling and centering, select Manually.

   • To set the distance for centering mark, select Automatically. The system automatically adds centering marks for levelling and centering according to the set distance.

2. Click System → Auto Levelling and Centering, and select a levelling and centering mode in Auto Levelling and Centering dialog box:

   

   • Levelling + Centering: levelling and centering the tube.

   • Centering: only centering the tube.

   With Automatically do levelling and centering when machining starts, the system will automatically do levelling and centering before each machining.
