8.6.2 Milling machine with chain magazine (D call)
Function
It is possible to assign between 1 and 12 tool noses with different tool compensation blocks
to a specific tool. When D is called, the tool length compensation for a specific tool nose is
activated. When D0 is programmed, offsets for the tool are ineffective. If no D word is
programmed, the default setting from the machine data is valid for tool change.
Tool length compensations take immediate effect when the D number is programmed.
A tool radius offset must also be activated by G41/G42.
Machine manufacturer
Tool management: Please refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
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)
