data
Yes
Name of the job list in which the channel data are saved.
Data for
• Main+counterspindle
All values for the main and counterspindle are saved in one data set
• Main spindle
Data set for the main spindle
• Counterspindle
Data set for the counterspindle
If the machine does not have a counterspindle, then the entry field "Data for"
Retraction
The retraction area indicates the area outside of which collision-
free traversing
of the axes must be possible.

•
XRA
Retraction plane X external ∅ (abs) or
retraction plane X referred to XA (inc)
XRI
- not for "basic" retraction
retraction plane X internal ∅ (abs) or
retraction plane X referred to XI (inc) - not for "pipe" blank
mm
ZRA
Retraction plane Z front (abs) or
retraction plane Z referred to ZA (inc)
mm
ZRI
Retraction plane Z rear – only for retraction "all" mm
Tailstock
• Yes
• No
XRR Retraction plane tailstock – only "Yes" for tailstock
For "Main+counterspindle", the tailstock only refers to the main spindle (tail-
stock on the counterspindle side)
mm
Tool change point
Tool change point, which must be approached by the revolver with its zero
point.
• WCS (Workpiece Coordinate System)
• MCS (Machine Coordinate System)
• The tool change point must be far enough outside the retraction area that
it is not possible for any tool to protrude into the retraction area while the
revolver is moving.
• Ensure that the tool change point is relative to the zero point of the revolv-
er and not the tool tip.
