The same applies in the event that the resulting tool length is modified due to a change in
the mirroring status of an axis. The tool must be selected again after the mirror command, in
order to activate the modified tool length components.
2.8.4 Tool length and plane change (SD 42940: TOOL_LENGTH_CONST)
Plane change
The assignment of tool length components (length, wear and tool base dimension) to
geometry axes does not change when the machining plane is changed (G17–G19).
Assignment of tools
The assignment of tool length components to geometry axes for turning and grinding tools
(tool types 400 to 599) is generated from the value of setting data:
SD42940 $SC_TOOL_LENGTH_CONST
in accordance with the following table:
Layer Length 1 Length 2 Length 3
17 Y X Z
*) X Z Y
19 Z Y X
-17 X Y Z
-18 Z X Y
-19 Y Z X
*) Each value not equal to 0, which is not equal to one of the six listed values, is evaluated as value
18.
The following table shows the assignment of tool length components to geometry axes for all
other tools (tool types < 400 or > 599):
Layer Length 1 Length 2 Length 3
*) Z Y X
18 Y X Z
19 X Z Y
-17 Z X Y
-18 Y Z X
-19 X Y Z
*) Each value not equal to 0, which is not equal to one of the six listed values, is evaluated as value
17.
