3.3.3 Transferring theTool List from an

NC Program

The CNC PILOT transfers the new tool assignment
from the TURRET section (reference: the NC program
last interpreted in Automatic mode).

Transferring the tool list

Select ”Setting up - Tool list - Accept list”

Depending on the previous turret assignment, the
following might occur:

Tool not used

The CNC PILOT enters the new tools in the tool list.
Positions that were occupied in the old tool list, but
are not used in the new list, are retained. If a tool
shall remain in the tool carrier, no further action is
required; if not, delete the tool:

Actual tool location differs from location in tool
list
A tool is not entered when its newly assigned
location differs from the location specified in the
tool list. The CNC PILOT displays a message
indicating this error. Change the tool location.

As long as a tool position differs from the nominal
assignment it remains highlighted.

Danger of collision

Tool locations that are occupied but,

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

The CNC PILOT compensates the tool

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