3.1.4 Manual Tool Length Measurement
By moving a tool manually from the reference to measurement point, the travel distance from the
basic to measurement point can be measured and set as tool offset.
(1) Tool length measurement I
When the tool is placed in the machine coordinate zero point, the distance from the tool tip to
measurement point (workpiece top end) can be measured and set as tool offset data.
When TLM basic length (#1102 tlm) = 0
and SURFACE #0 = 0 are set, tool length
measurement
I mode is set.
