5.4 Tool management (option number
93)

Basics

Tool management is a machine-dependent function,
which may be partly or completely deactivated.
The machine tool builder defines the exact range of
functions. Refer to your machine manual.
In tool management, your machine manufacturer can provide a
wide range of functions for tool handling. Examples:
Easily readable and, if you desired, adaptable representation of
the tool data in fillable forms
Any description of the individual tool data in the new table view
Mixed representation of data from the tool table and the pocket
table
Fast sorting of all tool data by mouse
Use of graphic aids, e.g. color coding of tool or magazine status
Program-specific list of all available tools
Program-specific usage sequence of all tools
Copying and pasting of all tool data pertaining to a tool
Graphic depiction of tool type in the table view and in the detail
view for a better overview of the available tool types
If you edit a tool in tool management, the selected
tool is locked. If this tool is required in the NC
program being used, the TNC shows the message:
Tool table locked.
