2-1. Outline of XIS

Outline of XIS
XIS (Extended Interface System) is a function to handle or adjust the microscope image.
When an operation with the microscope such as manual alignment or teaching operation is performed, the
XIS screen is displayed on the microscope image. Since frequently used functions such as shifting of
microscope image, light intensity adjustment and focus adjustment can be performed from the XIS screen,
operations related to the microscope image can be performed efficiently.
XIS screen
Operations which can be performed by using XIS:

・Moves the microscope image (moves the axis).
・Adjusts light intensity.
・Adjusts the focus.
・Rotates the θ-axis.
・Changes the magnification of the microscope (high/low).
(This operation can be performed only when the machine is equipped with the macro microscope
[optional accessory].)
・Adjusts the size of the target window during teaching.
Example of XIS usage:

・Move the currently displayed image to the desired position (the touch centering function to move the
touched position of the image to the center of the screen).
・Adjust light intensity and the focus when the microscope image is hard to see.
Other:
・XIS cannot be used during the cutting operation.
Types of XIS screen

There are two types of XIS screen: hairline display and target window display. When an operation with
the microscope is performed, either of the screens is displayed according to the operation.

About used blades
"Used blades" refers to the blades which were removed once from the spindle.
When you cut workpieces of multiple types, you have to use a different type of blade for each type of
workpiece. In this case, you have to replace the blade even when the blade wear has not reached its limit.
Saving/loading information of used blades

In order to reuse such used blades afterward, information of the removed blade should be saved in the
machine.
And, when you want to use the used blade, load these data on the machine.
Cautions for using used blades

It is important to check that the installed used blade corresponds to the loaded information. If wrong
information is applied, it may deteriorate the cutting accuracy.
Procedures for saving the data of used blades
WARNING
Do not touch the flange or blade after opening the covers during spindle rotation
Since the blade edge is sharp, if your fingers or hands come into contact with it, they
may be slashed or cut off. The splash cover (splash cover F and splash cover S in

recognize the positional relation in the Z-axis direction among the height of the chuck table where a
workpiece is placed, the height of the sub chuck table where a dresser board is placed, and the non-contact
setup sensing position.
You can execute the above three setup operations automatically and continuously in order of chuck table
setup → sub chuck table setup → non-contact setup (only on the machine equipped with the non-contact
setup [optional accessory]) by starting setup on the SENSOR CALIBRATION SETUP screen [4.3.3].
However, to execute setup in succession, "ON" should be selected at the item "Auto dress func." on the
FUNCTION DATA MAINTENANCE screen [5.3]. If "NO" is selected, the sub chuck table setup will not
be performed.
・When the blade is exchanged, execute either chuck table setup or non-contact setup. By executing
either of these two setup operations, the machine can recognize the sub chuck table position.
・When the chuck table is replaced, execute all of chuck table setup, non-contact setup and sub chuck
table setup.

About blade dressing operation
Blade dressing is a preliminary step to be performed to provide three basic blade elements (abrasive grains,
bond and pores). It refers to the operation in which the dresser board is cut by the blade which will be
used in the actual cutting operation.
Blade dressing falls roughly into two operations: truing and abrasive grain dressing.
