Tool radius R
You can enter the tool radius R directly.
Delta values for lengths and radii
Delta values are offsets in the length and radius of a tool.
A positive delta value describes a tool oversize (DL, DR>0). If you are
programming the machining data with an allowance, enter the
oversize value with T.
A negative delta value describes a tool undersize (DL, DR<0). An
undersize is entered in the tool table for wear.
Delta values are usually entered as numerical values. In a T block, you
can also assign the values to Q parameters.
Input range: You can enter a delta value with up to ± 99.999 mm.
Entering tool data into the program
The number, length and radius of a specific tool is defined in the G99
block of the part program.
