Tool data
You define turning-specific tool data in the turning tool table
TOOLTURN.TRN.
The tool number saved in column T refers to the number of the
turning tool in TOOL.T. Geometry values such as L and R from the
TOOL.T are not effective with turning tools.
The tool number in TOOLTURN.TRN must match the
tool number of the turning tool in TOOL.T. If you enter
or copy a new line you can then enter the corresponding
number.
The tool length stored in the column ZL is saved by the control in
the Q parameter Q114.
In addition you must identify turning tools in the tool table TOOL.T
as turning tools. For this, in column TYP select the tool type
for the appropriate tool. If you require additional geometric data for
a tool you can create further indexed tools for this.
You should give other tool tables that are to be archived or used
for test runs different file names of your choice with the extension
.TRN.
Proceed as follows to open the turning tool table:
Select the machine operating mode, e.g. Manual
operation
Press the TOOL TABLE soft key
Press the TURNING TOOLS soft key
Edit the turning tool table: Set the EDIT soft key
to ON
