Call tool data

A

TOOL CALL in the part program is defined with the following

data:

Select the tool call function with the

TOOL CALL key

Tool number: Enter the number or name of the
tool. The tool must already be defined in a

TOOL

DEF block or in the tool table. With the TOOL

NAME soft key you can enter a name. With the QS
soft key you enter a string parameter. The TNC
automatically places the tool name in quotation
marks. You have to assign a tool name to a string
parameter first. Names always refer to an entry
in the active tool table TOOL .T. If you wish to
call a tool with other compensation values, also
enter the index you defined in the tool table after
the decimal point. There is a

SELECT soft key for

calling a window from which you can select a tool
defined in the tool table TOOL.T directly without
having to enter the number or name
Working spindle axis X/Y/Z: Enter the tool axis
Spindle speed S: Enter the spindle speed S in
revolutions per minute (rpm). Instead, you can
define the cutting speed Vc in meters per minute
(m/min). Press the

VC soft key

Feed rate F: Enter feed rate F in millimeters
per minute (mm/min). Alternatively, with the
corresponding soft keys, you can also define the
feed rate in mm per revolution (mm/rev)

FU or

in mm per tooth (mm/tooth)

FZ. The feed rate is

effective until you program a new feed rate in a
positioning or

TOOL CALL block

Tool length oversize DL: Enter the delta value for
the tool length
Tool radius oversize DR: Enter the delta value for
the tool radius
Tool radius oversize DR2: Enter the delta value
