7.2 Tool table, active tool table and tool magazine table
After setting the machine parameters for the tool magazines, define the tool table and then
the magazine table.
Tool table.
The tool table must contain, among other things, the geometry, type of monitoring and tool
size. All the tools must be defined, including the ground ones.
The tool manager inserts the special tools always in the same tool pocket regardless of the
number of pockets they occupy.
Tool magazine table.
There is one table for each magazine. Each table shows which tool is in each pocket and
on each holder of the changer arm (if any).
Although the magazine table may be initialized manually, it is up to the tool manager to
dynamically update all its data.
Active-tools table.
The active-tools table shows which tools are active in the spindles.
Example:
Having 10 tools and a 10-position magazine. The tools are small, except T2 that is large
and T4 that has a special size (0 to the left and 1 to the right).
Load the tools one by one in the magazine using the corresponding softkey.
• T1 in position 1.
• T2 in position 3. Verify that it cannot go in position 2 because the tool is too large.
• T3 in position 5. T2 occupies positions 2-3-4.
• T4 in position 6. T4 occupies positions 6-7.
• T5 in position 8.
• T6 in position 9.
• T7 in position 10.
T8, T9 and T10 do not fit in the magazine; therefore, they will be ground tools.
