3.  Tool Offset (L system) 

3.2  Tool Length Data 

 

 

 

I-95 

Refer to "3 (II). Tool Offset (M system)" for M system.

(b) Setting the external workpiece coordinate offset data 

 

1) Zero point return 

After turning the power ON, establish the coordinate system by carrying out dog-type zero point return. 
When using the absolute position detection specifications, carry out initialization if the absolute 
position is not established. 

 

2) Select the mode 

Set the mode selection switch to the manual mode (either [handle], [jog] or [rapid traverse]). 

 

3) Input the tool measurement mode signal 

Set the tool measurement mode signal to "1". 
The tool measurement mode is entered with steps 1), 2) and 3). 

 

4) Select the tool 

Issue the T command with MDI operation, etc., and select the tool. 
Notes) 

1. Set the compensation No. of the tool to be selected in the R register (R register 

corresponding to the compensation No.). 

 

2. Preset the tool length data and wear data for the tool to be used. 

 

5) Cut workpiece edges 

If the workpiece edges have not been cut, cut them slightly to flatten the workpiece edges. 
Notes) 

1. Do not move the tool in the Z axis direction after cutting the workpiece edges. 

 

 

2. If the edges do not need to be cut, position to the measurement position. 

 

6) Set the Z axis external workpiece offset data with the workpiece measurement signal input 

Turn ON the workpiece measurement signal. The Z axis external workpiece coordinate offset data will 
be automatically calculated from the machine value at the time the signal is turned ON and the tool 
compensation data of the tool used. The data will then be set. 

 

(i) Details of automatic calculation expression 

The external workpiece coordinate offset data is automatically calculated with the following 
expression. 
(Refer to "External workpiece coordinate offset calculation diagram") 

External workpiece coordinate offset 
   = Machine coordinate value – Tool compensation data 

 

The tool compensation data used for the measurement is selected with the base specification 
parameter "#1226 aux10 bit0".
