Tool Measurement
You can compare the dimensions of non-measured tools by comparing
them with a measured tool.
Sequence (example):
1 Insert the reference tool and enter the T number in “Set S, F, T“.
2 Turn an end face and define this coordinate as the workpiece zero
point.
3 Return to “Set S, F, T“, insert the tool to be measured and enter the
associated T number.
4 Activate “Measure tool”.
5 Touch the end face with the tool, enter the value “0“ for the “measur-
ing point coordinate Z“ (workpiece datum) and confirm with “Take
over Z“. MANUALplus stores the tool dimension and deletes any
exisiting compensation values for the tool.
6 Touch the diameter with the tool. Enter this coordinate as the “meas-
uring point coordinate X” and confirm with “Take over X“. MANUAL-
plus stores the tool dimension and deletes any exisiting compensa-
tion values for the tool.
7 If you are measuring a lathe or recessing tool, enter the cutting
radius and confirm with ”Save radius”.
You can only measure tools that have already been entered
in the tool table.
Deleting tool compensation values
You can delete existing compensation values with
the function keys ”Erase X offset”, ”Erase Z offset”
and ”Delete special”.

Tool Compensation
1 Select ”X offset f. tool”, ”Z offset f. tool” or ”Spe-
cial correction“ – the compensation value is
shown in the distance-to-go display.
2 Using the handwheel, move by the distance to be
compensated.
3 Press ”Save” to tranfer the compensation value.
