Tool life monitoring
This group shows the data related to tool life monitoring. If a tool has been defined
with several offsets, it is possible to manage the status of each one.
When managing the live of two or more offsets of the same tool, the list of the
magazine positions (magazine table) only shows whether the tool has been rejected
or not.
Type
It is used to activate and select the type of tool life monitoring (in time or number of
operations).
Nominal life
Machining time (in minutes) or number of operations that the tool may carry out.
Real (actual) life
Machining time or number of operation the tool has carried out. The CNC updates
this value when the tool is being used.
Tool magazine

or in the magazine.
