Multipoint tools, tool life monitoring
Turning tools with more than one (maximal 5) cutting edges are
referred to as multipoint tools. In the tool database, each cutting edge
is defined in a separate data record. In addition, a “closed chain” of all
cutting edges of the multipoint tool is formed.
Define one cutting edge as primary cutting edge and the other ones
as secondary cutting edges. In the tool list, only the primary cutting
edge is defined.
