Fundamentals
Tool number
Tool length
Tool radius R
Program the tool length as its difference
∆
L to the zero tool:
∆
L>0: The tool is longer than the zero tool
∆
L<0: The tool is shorter than the zero tool
With a tool presetter you can measure the actual tool length, then
program that length.
Calling the tool data
Tool number
Working spindle axis: tool axis
Spindle speed S
Oversize for the tool length DL (e.g. for wear)
Oversize for the tool radius DR (e.g. for wear)
Oversizes on an end mill
3 TOOL DEF 6 L+7.5 R+3
4 TOOL CALL 6 Z S2000 DL+1 DR+0.5
5 L Z+100 R0 FMAX
6 L X-10 Y-10 R0 FMAX M6
Tool change
Beware of tool collision when moving to the tool change
position.
The direction of spindle rotation is defined by M function:
M3: Clockwise
M4: Counterclockwise
Oversizes for tool length or radius cannot exceed
±99.999 mm!
