8.4 Technology database
The technology database manages the cutting data according
to the machining mode, the workpiece material and the cutting
material. The figure at right shows the composition of the
database. Each cube represents a data record with cutting data.
In its standard version, the technology database is designed for
9 workpiece-material/cutting-material combinations. You can
optionally expand the database to 62 workpiece-material/cutting-
material combinations.
The control ascertains these criteria from the following information:
Machining mode : In cycle programming ( Teach-in submode)
a machining mode is assigned to each cycle and in
smart.Turn
mode of operation a machining mode is assigned to each unit
Material : The workpiece material is defined in the TSF menu
during cycle programming, and in the program header in
smart.Turn
mode of operation
Cutting material : Each tool description contains the cutting
material
Using these three criteria, the control accesses a cutting data
record (shown yellow in the figure) and generates from it the
technology-data proposal.
Explanation of abbreviations used in the figure:
Task
: Machining mode
WS : Workpiece material
SS : Cutting material
