Special handling of tool compensation
For SINUMERIK 802D sl plus and pro, tool compensation (offset) can be handled as follows.
Influence of setting data
Using specific setting data the operator / programmer can influence the calculation of the
length compensation of the used tool:
●
SD42940 TOOL_LENGTH_CONST
(allocation of the tool length components to the geometry axes)
●
SD42950 TOOL_LENGTH_TYPE
(allocation of the tool length components independent of tool type)
Note
The modified setting data will become effective with the next cutting edge selection.
Tool length and plane change (SD42940 TOOL_LENGTH_CONST)
Value of the setting data equal to 0:
The behavior corresponds to the standard definition: The lengths 1 to 3 in geometry and
wear are assigned to the 1st to 3rd axes of the plane according to the active G17 to G19 and
according to the tool type. If the active G17 to G19 changes, the axis assignment for the
lengths 1 to 3 also changes because abscissa, ordinate and applicate are allocated to
different geometry axes.
Reference:
/BP_/ Operation and Programming
Value of the setting data not equal to 0:
The assignment of the tool lengths 1 to 3 in geometry and wear to the geometry axes is
performed according to the SD value and is not changed if the machining plane (G17 to
G19) changes.
