Abstract
The present invention pertains to a process and a device for adjusting an axis, especially an axis of rotation, wherein an adjusting sensor (4) is provided on the axis (2). A position-measuring system (1) with internal cyclic absolute signaling is provided, by means of which the mechanical zero point marking on the axis is reached, and the cyclic absolute actual position value found there is read and entered into the axis control unit (16). Starting from this, the displacement to the desired adjusted position of the adjusting sensor is calculated in the axis control unit (16), and this position is reached with the axis (2) automatically or manually. At this adjustment position, which is located in the middle of a selectable transducer cycle of the position-measuring system, the adjustment of the adjusting sensor (4) is performed.
