Tool parameters $TC-DP1 to $TC-DP23 with contour tools
Note
The tool parameters not listed in the table, such as $TC_DP7, are not evaluated, i.e. their
content is meaningless.

Basic value and wear value
The resultant values are each a total of the basic value and wear value (e.g. $TC_DP6 +
$TC_DP15 for the radius). The basic measurement ($TC_DP21 – $TC_DP23) is also added
to the tool length of the first cutting edge. All the other parameters, which may also impact on
effective tool length for a standard tool, also affect this tool length (adapter, orientational
toolholder, setting data).
Limit angles 1 and 2
Limit angles 1 and 2 each relate to the vector of the cutting edge center point to the cutting
edge reference point and are counted clockwise.
