Tool life monitoring
This group shows the data related to tool life monitoring. If a tool has been defined with several offsets, it is possible to manage the status of each one.
When managing the live of two or more offsets of the same tool, the list of the magazine positions (magazine table) only shows whether the tool has been rejected or not.
Type
It is used to activate and select the type of tool life monitoring (in time or number of operations).
Nominal life
Machining time (in minutes) or number of operations that the tool may carry out.
Real (actual) life
Machining time or number of operation the tool has carried out. The CNC updates this value when the tool is being used.
Tool magazine
This information cannot be modified if the tool is in the spindle, on the changer arm or in the magazine.
