Measuring tools
Functionality
You can measure tools manually in the "Manual Machine Plus" operating area. In this case,
the manual tool measurement function accesses the tool list data.
Note
You can access the tool list by pressing the operating area key <OFFSET/PARAM> and
softkey "Tool list".
Literature
Further methods of handling tools and tool offsets are described in the "SINUMERIK 802D sl
Turning Programming and Operating Manual".
Notice: An uncalibrated or incorrectly calibrated tool can lead to dimensional errors or to
incorrect cutting values. If the values entered are very different from the actual tool values,
there is a risk that the tool may break or the mechanism or workpiece may be damaged.
Requirement
Load the tool beforehand or enter the tool number in the "T" field. After confirming the input,
a dialog will prompt you to press the <NC Start> key. If the <NC Start> key is pressed, the
tool will be changed.
First approach a machine position where the tool change can be performed without danger.
