Function
We usually set the tool length and offset in the External
Shift if we only use one tool in this machine.
If we have more than one tool, we need to set every tool
length we can use relative length or absolute length.
Operation condition
Manual mode.
Manual Operation method
-Relative method.
Use manual function moving the reference tool to the
Z-coordinate code 0 position of the workpiece (Ex.
surface), set the value at G54.
Clean all the relative coordinate value.
Install the measured tool, move the tool to the same
position as before (reference surface).
The tool length is the different between measured tool
and reference tool.
Key in this number to the corresponding tool No.
If tool break during machining and replace a new tool,
we need to change to a new tool. If the Z-cord 0
position already disappear, we can use the standard tool
to touch anywhere of the machine and then use new
tool to touch the same position. The relative cord. is
tool length.
-Absolute method
