Mechanical Edge Finder

Mechanical Edge Finder Instruction

A Mechanical Edge Finder has 3 modes: Wobbling (Fig.2), Centered (Fig.3), and Offset (Fig.4).
1. Insert the Edge Finder into the tool holder. (Fig.1)
2. Run the spindle at RPM 400 to 600.
3. The Edge Finder will be in Wobbling mode. (Fig.2)
4. Then we move the Edge Finder toward the work part. As the Edge Finder contacts the work part, the Edge Finder will transit from Wobbling Mode to Centered Mode. (Fig.3)
5. We continue to move the Edge Finder toward the work part, the Edge Finder will transit from Centered Mode to Offset Mode. (Fig.4)

The Edge position of the work part will be the transit position between the Centered Mode and the Offset Mode.
