Tool offsets
7.10 Online tool length compensation (TOFFON, TOFFOF)
Further information
Block preparation
During block preparation in preprocessing, the current tool length offset active in the main
run is also taken into consideration. To allow extensive use to be made of the maximum
permissible axis velocity, it is necessary to stop block preparation with a
cessing stop while a tool offset is established.
The tool offset is always known at the time of run-in when the tool length offsets are not
changed after program start or if more blocks have been processed after changing the tool
length offsets than the IPO buffer can accommodate between run-in and main run.
Variable $AA_TOFF_PREP_DIFF
The dimension for the difference between the currently active compensation in the interpo-
lator and the compensation that was active at the time of block preparation can be polled in
the variable $AA_TOFF_PREP_DIFF[<n>].
Adjusting machine data and setting data
The following system data is available for online tool length offset:
● MD20610 $MC_ADD_MOVE_ACCEL_RESERVE (acceleration margin for overlaid
● MD21190 $MC_TOFF_MODE
● MD21194 $MC_TOFF_VELO (velocity of the online tool length compensation)
● MD21196 $MC_TOFF_ACCEL (acceleration of the online tool length compensation)
● Setting data for presetting limit values:
