Tool Parameters 3; Tool Parameters 6 - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Function Manual

2.4.4 Tool parameters 3 ... 5: Geometry - tool lengths
The lengths of the tools are required for the geometry tool length compensation. They are input
as tool lengths 1 to 3 in the tool parameters 3 to 5.
The minimum required tool length depends on the respective tool type:
Tool type
Tool type 12x, 140, 145, 150
Tool type 13x
Tool type 2xx
Tool type 5xx
Example: Twist drill (tool type 200)
T
L1
Note
All three tool parameters 3 to 5 (tool length 1 to 3) are always calculated in the three geometry
axes, irrespective of the tool type. If more tool lengths are input in the tool parameters 3 to 5 for
a tool type than is required as the minimum, then these extra tool lengths are settled in the
geometry axes without any alarm.
The active size of the tool is only defined when the geometry tool length compensation (tool
parameters 3 to 5) and the wear tool length compensation (tool parameters 12 to 14) are added
together. The base-dimension/adapter-dimension tool length compensation is also added in
order to calculate the total tool length compensation in the geometry axes.
2.4.5 Tool parameters 6 ... 11: Geometry - tool shape
The shape of the tool is defined using the tool parameters 6 to 11. The data is required for the
geometry tool radius compensation.
