Tool table: Tool data required for automatic tool measurement

TIME1

Maximum tool life in minutes. This function can vary depending
on the individual machine tool. Your machine manual provides
more information on TIME1.

Maximum tool age?

TIME2

Maximum tool life in minutes during a T call: If the current tool age
exceeds this value, the TNC changes the tool during the next T
call of the replacement tool (see also CUR.TIME)

Maximum tool age for TOOL CALL?

CUR.TIME

Current age of the tool in minutes: The TNC automatically counts
the current tool life (CUR.TIME). A starting value can be entered for
used tools.

Current tool life?

DOC

Comment on tool (up to 16 characters)

Tool description?

PLC

Information on this tool that is to be sent to the PLC

PLC status?

PLC-VAL

Value of this tool that is to be sent to the PLC

PLC value?

PTYP

Tool type for evaluation in the pocket table

Tool type for pocket table?

NMAX

Limits the spindle speed for this tool. The programmed value is
monitored (error message) as well as a shaft speed increase via
the potentiometer. Function inactive: Enter

Maximum speed [rpm]?

LIFTOFF

Definition of whether the TNC should retract the tool in the
direction of the positive tool axis at an NC stop in order to avoid
leaving dwell marks on the contour. If Y is defined, the TNC
retracts the tool from the contour by 0.1 mm, provided that this
function was activated in the NC program with M148 (see
“Automatically retract tool from the contour at an NC stop:
M148” on page 283).

Retract tool Y/N ?

P1 ... P3

Machine-dependent function: Transfer of a value to the PLC.
Refer to your machine manual.

Value?

KINEMATIC

Machine-dependent function: Kinematics description for vertical
milling heads, which the TNC adds to the active machine
kinematics.

Additional kinematic description?

T-ANGLE

Point angle of the tool. Is used by the Centering cycle (Cycle
G240) in order to calculate the centering depth from the diameter
entry.

Point angle (Type DRILL+CSINK)?

PITCH

Thread pitch of the tool (currently still without function)

Thread pitch (only type TAP)?

AFC

Control setting for the adaptive feed control AFC that you have
defined in the NAME column of the AFC.TAB table. Apply the
feedback-control strategy with the ASSIGN AFC CONTROL
SETTING soft key (3rd soft-key row)

Feedback-control strategy?
