2.3 Tool cutting edge
2.3.1 General
Tool cutting edge
The following data are used to describe a tool cutting edge uniquely:
• Tool type (end mill, drill, etc.)
• Geometrical description
• Technological description
Tool parameter
The geometrical description, the technological description and the tool type are mapped to
tool parameters for each tool cutting edge.
Milling cutter types 111, 120, 121, 130, 155, 156 and 157 are given special treatment for 3D-
face milling by evaluating tool parameters (1 -23).
