Detailed Description
2.1 Tool
Activation
In order to work with unique D numbers and, therefore, with the defined language
commands, it must be possible to name D numbers freely for the tools.
The following conditions must be fulfilled for this purpose:
• MD18105 > MD18106
• The "Flat D number" function is not activated
Examples
MD18105 $MN_MM_MAX_CUTTING_EDGE_NO = 1
A maximum of one compensation can be defined per tool
(with D number = 1).
Note
When the "Flat D numbers" function is active, only one D compensation can be defined in
the TO unit.
MD18105 $MN_MM_MAX_CUTTING_EDGE_NO = 9999
Tools can be assigned unique D numbers.
For example:
• D numbers 1, 2, 3 are assigned to T number 1
• D numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 are assigned to T number 2
• D numbers 100, 200 are assigned to T number 3
• etc.
CHKDNO; MD18105 $MN_MM_MAX_CUTTING_EDGE_NO = 9999
The following data are to be checked for unique D numbers:
• T number 1 with D numbers 1, 2, 3
• T number 2 with D numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50
• T number 3 with D numbers 100, 200, 30
2-10
(→ MD18102 $MN_MM_TYPE_OF_CUTTING_EDGE).
(typing error during definition: 30 was entered instead of 300)
