5.5 Z Clearance<br />
The purpose of the Z Clearance function is to cause the tip to raise high enough to clear<br />
all obstacles as it moves <strong>fr</strong>om one point to another. If there are no obstacles between any<br />
of the program points, a small Z Clearance value, such as 5 mm, can be used to minimize<br />
the program cycle time.<br />
Values for the Z Clearance are registered by pressing the SETUP key, then choosing Z<br />
Clearance. The Z Clearance value will be used by all points <strong>fr</strong>om that memory address<br />
forward until another Z Clearance value is found. Normally, a Z clearance instruction<br />
should be registered in the beginning of a program, at one of the first memory addresses.<br />
The Z Clearance value may be specified as a relative value or an absolute value. When<br />
specified as a relative value, it is the distance to rise relative to the taught point location.<br />
When it is specified as an absolute value, it is a distance <strong>fr</strong>om the Z-axis zero position,<br />
where the tip will rise to, regardless of the Z-axis value of the taught point location. For<br />
example:<br />
Z Clearance = 10 mm RELATIVE:<br />
Z = 0 mm<br />
10 mm<br />
