Tool length 2 Not used
The tool radius must be entered for the following tool types in tool parameter 6
(tool radius 1):
Tool type 1xx Milling tools
Tool type 5xx Turning tools
Tool radius 1
A tool radius does not have to be entered for drilling tools (tool type 2xx).
The cutting edge position (tool parameter 2) also has to be entered for turning
tools (tool type 5xx).
Tool radius 2 Not used
Tool angle 1 Not used
Tool angle 2 Not used
2D TRC with contour tools
For the definition of contour tools with multiple tool cutting edges, the minimum and
maximum limit angle can be entered. Both limit angles each relate to the vector of the cutting
edge center point to the cutting edge reference point and are counted clockwise.
Tool angle 1 Minimum limit angle per tool cutting edge
Tool angle 2 Maximum limit angle per tool cutting edge
