Machining information
Tool selection, turret assignment
The tool selection is determined by:
Machining direction
Contour to be machined
Machining sequence
Machine parameter settings, e.g. "Type of tool access" (602001)
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. If no tool is found by TURN PLUS, select the tools 
manually. 
The Mount type distinguishes between different tool holders (see 
"Tool editor" 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.
Depending on the setting of the "Zero point shift" machine 
parameter (602022), TURN PLUS automatically calculates 
the required zero point shift for the workpiece and 
activates it with G59 (see "List of user parameters" in the 
User's Manual). 
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)
Multipoint tools and manual tool change holders are used 
by AWG only if they are already entered in the turret list of 
the NC program.
