Manual change systems

A tool holder is designated as a manual change system if it can
accommodate various tool inserts via an integral clamping device.
Most clamping devices designed as polygon coupling enable rapid,
position-precise replacement of tool inserts.

With a manual change system it is possible to insert tools that are not
in the turret during a program run. For this, the control checks whether
the called tool is in the turret or has to be loaded. If a tool change is
required then the control interrupts the program run. After you have
manually loaded the tool insert, confirm the tool change and continue
the program run.

The following steps are necessary for using manual change systems:

Create the tool holder in the holder table

Select the tool holder in the turret assignment

Enter the tool data for the manual change tool

Your machine must be configured by the machine
manufacturer if you want to use manual change systems.
Refer to your machine manual.
