3.3.1 Tool list
☑ Basic configuration
For the purpose of managing tools, the SINUMERIK 802D sl pro provides you with an easy-
to-use tool list, which displays all relevant tool data and wear.
● In the tool list, you can create and delete tools using softkeys.
● For each tool, you can store the following data:
– Special icon for the individual tool type with direction of tool orientation (mill or drill)
– Tools are displayed in the list with a number, e.g. T1.
– Number of the compensation block for the tool cutting edge, e.g. D1
– Tool offset data in the form of length and radius
– Values for geometry and wear in a single table
● Using individual password protection, you can specify the maximum permissible input
values for tool wear to avoid collisions, for example. This can be done using display
machine data MD 208, MD 209 and MD 374.

● All tool data at a glance
