3.3.2 Comparing a Tool List with an NC

The CNC PILOT compares the current tool list with

tool” in the tool list
or

Look for the tool in the database

The CNC PILOT shows the following tools marked:

Actual tool

≠ nominal tool

Actual – not occupied; nominal – occupied

The entries in the TURRET section are considered
nominal tools (reference:TURRET section of the NC
program most recently interpreted in Automatic
mode).

Tool locations that are not assigned in the NC
program cannot be selected.

Danger of collision

Tool pockets that are occupied but,

according to the NC program, are not
needed, are not marked.

The CNC PILOT compensates the tool

actually entered – even if it does not
match the nominal assignment.
