8.5.2 Milling machine with chain magazine (T selection)
Function
The tools must be assigned unique names and numbers for identification purposes. Below it
will be demonstrated how to uniquely define the parameters for the tool management option
on a milling machine with chain magazine.
Machine manufacturer
Tool management: Please refer to the machine manufacturer's configuration.
Programming
The following sequence usually applies:
T = identifier or
T = number
M06 triggers the tool change
D = offset Tool edge number 1 to n (n ≤ 12)
Tool selection
With integrated tool management (within the NC)
Relative D no. structure With internal reference made to the associated tools
(e.g., tool management and monitoring function)
Without integrated tool management (external to NC)
Flat D no. structure Without internal reference made to the associated tools
Selection
• With integrated tool management (inside NC)
relative D no. structure with internal reference to the associated tools
(e.g., replacement tool management and monitoring function possible)
• Without integrated tool management (outside NC)
flat D no. structure without internal reference to associated tools.
