9.2 Tool length compensation
Tool length compensation is applied on to the axis indicated by the
instruction "#TOOL AX", or when missing, to the longitudinal axis
designated by selecting the plane.
If G17, tool lengh compensation is aplied to Z axis.
If G18, tool lengh compensation is aplied to Y axis.
If G19, tool lengh compensation is aplied to X axis.
Whenever any of functions G17, G18 or G19 is executed, the CNC
assumes the axis perpendicular to the selected plane as the new
longitudinal axis. If, then, "#TOOL AX" is executed, the new selected
longitudinal axis replaces the previous one.
Programming
Tool length compensation is activated when selecting a tool offset.
• To activate this compensation, program "D<n>", where <n> is the
tool offset number that contains the tool dimensions that will be
used as compensation values.
• To cancel this compensation, program "D0".
O nc e o ne o f th es e co d e s h a s be e n exec ut ed , to ol l e n g th
compensation will be activated or cancel during the next movement
of the longitudinal axis.
