  • Patent number: 6601434
    Abstract: A calibration system and method for a multi-toolhead machine. A calibration device is installed onto the machine. When a first toolhead is calibrated with respect to the calibration device, based upon the change in position between the first toolhead and a predetermined reference on the calibration device, all of the remaining toolheads are automatically calibrated. The system is set up by calibrating each toolhead with respect to the calibration device and determining an offset between the calibrated position of each toolhead and the calibration of the first toolhead.
