Overview
The Tool Table is available to define and store up to 100 tools. Each
tool is identified by a number between 1 and 100. The Tool Table is
used to store tool cutting radius, length, tool angle, etc., depending
on the type of the tool (Rough, Finish, Recess, Button, Thread, Drill,
etc.)
Tool Table values are displayed in inches or millimeters based on
the current units of measure when the table is opened. Tool data is
entered into the table using the Set Tool Dialog.
Tool data can be entered directly in the part program or in the
Tool Table. When running a G-code program’s tool block or a
conversational program’s tool step, specified by tool number, the
tool data is provided from the tool table. Example: Running a G-
code T1 block prompts the operator to mount tool 1. The tool data
is retrieved for tool #1 from the tool table and used to adjust the X
and Z tool path
The tool number 0 is automatically defined as zero tool
(tool holder empty) with radius = 0, length = 0, width =
0, etc.
