Machining information
Tool selection, turret assignment
The tool selection is determined by:
Machining direction
Contour to be machined
Machining sequence
If the ideal tool is not available, TURN PLUS
First looks for a replacement tool,
Then for an emergency tool.
If necessary, TURN PLUS adapts the machining cycle to the 
requirements of the replacement or emergency tool. If more than one 
tool is suitable for a machining operation, TURN PLUS uses the 
optimal tool.
The Mount type distinguishes between different tool holders (see 
"Tool data" in the User's Manual). TURN PLUS checks whether the 
mount type in the tool holder description and the mount type in the 
turret pocket description are the same.
TURN PLUS automatically calculates the required zero 
point shift for the workpiece and activates it with G59. To 
calculate the zero point shift, TURN PLUS takes the 
following values into account: 
Workpiece length Z (description of workpiece blank)
Oversize K (Description of workpiece blank)
Edge of chuck Z (description of chucking equipment and 
machining parameters)
Edge of chuck B (description of chucking equipment and 
machining parameters)
The multipoint tools are used by AWG only if they are 
already entered in the turret list of the NC program.
