TOOL DATA

You can enter data, such as tool number, tool life, workpiece count, etc. in a screen form for up to four tools.

TOOL OFFSET

The tool offset takes into account the tool dimensions and wear. The tool offset is stored under a tool offset number, D1 to D99, in the tool offset memory. If the ªaxis duplicationº function is active, the tool offset memory is divided into two halves automatically (D1 to D49 for tool system 1 and D50 to D99 for tool system 2).

Via the ºTOOL OFFSETº softkey after ºDATA OUTº, you select the output of tool offsets via the universal interface.
