71HEIDENHAIN TNC 426 B, TNC 430
Entering tool data in tables
You can define and store up to 32767 tools and their tool data in a
tool table. In Machine Parameter 7260, you can define how many
tool places are to be reserved by the TNC when a new table is set
up. See also the Editing Functions at a later stage in this Chapter.
5.2 Tool Data
You must use tool tables if
■
your machine tool has an automatic tool changer,
■
you want to measure tools automatically with the
TT 120 touch probe (see the new Touch Probe
Cycles User's Manual, Chapter 4),
■
you want to rough-mill the contour with Cycle 22,
see section 8.5, ”SL Cycles, ROUGH-OUT,”
■
you want to work with automatic cutting data
calculations.
Abbr. Input
T Number by which the tool is called in the program
NAME Name by which the tool is called in the program
L Value for tool length compensation L
R Compensation value for the tool radius R
R2 Tool radius R2 for toroid cutters (only for 3-D radius
compensation or graphical representation of a
machining operation with spherical cutter)
DL Delta value for tool length
DR Delta value for tool radius R
DR2 Delta value for tool radius R2
LCUTS Tooth length of the tool for Cycle 22
ANGLE Maximum plunge angle of the tool for reciprocating
plunge-cut in Cycle 22
TL Set tool lock (TL: Tool Locked)
RT Number of a replacement tool, if available (see also
TIME2)
TIME1 Maximum tool life in minutes. This function can vary
depending on the individual machine tool. Your
machine manual provides more information on TIME1.
TIME2 Maximum tool life in minutes during a TOOL CALL: If
the current tool age exceeds this value, the TNC
changes the tool during the next TOOL CALL (see
also CUR.TIME)
CUR.TIME Time in minutes the tool has been in use: The TNC
automatically counts the current tool life. A starting
value can be entered for used tools.
