6General Information on Axis Positioning
For safety reasons, the axes are positioned according to the "Hold to Run" principle, which means that
the axes are not positioned simultaneously but one after the other - so that always only one axis can
be in motion. With a running spindle, the adjustment of the angular axis is blocked for safety reasons.
Posioning sequence
The positioning sequence is the same for all moving axes (see chapter 8 "Machine Overview"): The
target values are specified via the alphanumeric touchscreen keyboard and then the positioning is
overtaken via the (Enter) button.
If the actual value deviates from the target value, the positioning button on the front
(see figure on the left) flashes and the positioning function is enabled. If the positioning
button is pressed, the axis positions until the defined target value is reached. If the key
is released prematurely, the positioning process is stopped or interrupted.
Actual values / target values
The following applies to all positioning windows: The “Actual”value fields are highlighted in red if the
actual value and target value differ from each other or if the target position (setpoint) has not been
reached. As soon as the position “Set” has been reached and the two values for actual and target value
are identical, the corresponding actual value field is highlighted in green:
Position not reached (red): Position reached (green):
Figure 6: Coloured background of the actual values
Manual mode (step posioning)
The UT-300 control offers the possibility to move each longitudinal and vertical axis in 0.1 mm steps
resp. the angular axis in steps of 0.1° - either in positive or negative direction.
For this purpose, a +and a  symbol appear next to or below the corresponding target value window.
Versions 245|200 and 245|300 only: When using this function in the "Speed" menu, the rotary
speed of the cutter is increased or decreased in 100 rpm steps.
Available actions:
Action
Function

9Height and Angle Positioning
Height (Oset)
Input of the effective height (incl. calculation of the tool, etc.) in the range from 0 to 125 mm:
Figure 11: Effective height (incremental)
The setting range depends on the inserted tool and is also calculated accordingly
(see display "min" and "max").
Action
Function
Confirmation of input + positioning enable → The positioning button flashes
Move height in manual inching mode (1/10 mm steps)
With this "Reset-Button" the axis can be set to "0".
Perform calibration with the "Zeromaster" reference measurement adjusting unit
(see next section  9.1.1).
9.1.1 Zeromaster
With the Zeromaster (accessorial part, Art. No. 2205) it is possible to measure the effective tool height
and to reference the machine incrementally to this dimension. This is very helpful to easily calibrate
the tool height resp. the zero point of the tool.
Use this function in case of deviations from the set value to the milled, resp. measured value
and always after re-sharpening the tool or if a tool has to be replaced.
To perform this function, press the "Zeromaster" button and follow step by step the instructions on
the screen (see section 9.1.2 on the next page).

BA_PH_UT300_EN_08-22.docx

9.1.2 Calibrate the Tool Height with the Zeromaster
Before calibrating with Zeromaster, make sure that the tool angle is set exactly to 0°!
Before placing the Zeromaster connected to the machine, the table surface of the machine
must be cleaned of dirt, chips and any objects must be removed from the table. Chips and
dirt between the Zeromaster and the table surface will falsify the calibration value!
Figure 12: Calibrate the tool height with the Zeromaster
1. Move tool below table level
2. Place the Zeromaster (see step 3.)
3. Table surface must be clean and flat
4. Press and hold the positioning button
Note: If the calibration does not trigger and the tool continues to move upwards after
reaching the Zeromaster, clean the metal contact surface with a cloth or brush.
5. The calibration procedure is now complete
Remark: When the calibrated tool has been loaded from the existing tool database, the message "Tool
measurement-save" appears at the end.
•Touch the "Update Value" button to overwrite the original tool height in the database. This is
especially useful after resharpening the tool.
•If an existing tool from the database is replaced by a completely new tool after increased resharp-
ening, calibrate it with the Zeromaster and overwrite the height in the database.
