If you open a pop-up window for tool selection, the
TNC marks all tools available in the tool magazine
green.

You can also search for a tool in the pop-up window.
To do so, press the

GOTO or SEARCH soft key and

enter the tool number or tool name. With the

OK soft

key you can load the tool into the dialog box.

Example: Tool call

Call tool number 5 in the tool axis Z with a spindle speed 2500 rpm
and a feed rate of 350 mm/min. The tool length and tool radius 2
are to be programmed with an oversize of 0.2 and 0.05 mm, the
tool radius with an undersize of 1 mm.

your machine manual.

If you are working with tool tables, use a

preselect the next tool. Simply enter the tool number or a
