Lathe Machine Specific Functions
9.2.1. Tool Offset
Tools differ in length as well as
in
diameter,
making
compensation in slide movement
necessary to accommodate the
dimensional variation of the tools.
This compensation is known as
the tool offset. Once the tool
offset is established, the slide
movement
is
automatically
adjusted according to the value
that is set. EL 400 series DRO
supports 9 such tool offsets.
While
