4.4 Tool carrier management
Fundamentals
You can create and manage tool carriers using the tool carrier
management. The control factors the tool carriers into the
calculations.
On 3-axis machines, tool carriers of right-angled angle heads are
useful for machining in the tool axes
X
and
Y
, as the control takes
the dimensions of the angle heads into account.
In the
Test Run
operating mode, you check the tool carriers for
collisions with the workpiece.
Further information: "Monitoring for collisions ", Page 255
Along with the
Advanced Function Set 1
software option (option
8), you can tilt the working plane to the angle of the removable angle
heads and thus keep working with the
Z
tool axis.
You must carry out the following steps so that the control can
factors the tool carriers into the calculations:
Saving tool carrier templates
Parameterizing tool carriers
Assign the tool carrier
If you are using M3D or STL files instead of
parameterized tool carriers, the first two steps are not
required.
Saving tool carrier templates
Many tool carriers only differ from others in terms of their
dimensions, but their geometric shape is identical. So that you don’t
have to design all your tool carriers yourself, HEIDENHAIN supplies
a range of ready-made tool carrier templates. Tool carrier templates
are 3-D models with fixed geometries but changeable dimensions.
The tool carrier templates must be saved in
TNC:\system
\Toolkinematics
and have the extension
.cft
.
If the tool carrier templates are not available in your
control, please download the data you require from:
http://www.klartext-portal.com/nc-solutions/en
If you need further tool carrier templates, please contact
your machine manufacturer or third-party vendor.
The tool carrier templates may consist of several sub-
files. If the sub-files are incomplete, the control will
display an error message.
Do not use incomplete tool carrier templates!
