Defining the tool change position
With the cycle Move to tool change position or the DIN command
G14, the slide moves to the tool change position. Program the
tool change position far enough away from the workpiece so that
the turret can rotate without collision and the tools do not damage
the workpiece during tool change.
Defining the tool change position:
Select Setup
Select Tool change point
Move to the tool change position
Use the axis keys or the handwheel to move
the tool to the tool change position and load this
position as tool change point
Alternative: Enter the tool change position
directly
Enter the desired tool change position in the X
and Z input fields in machine coordinates (X =
radius dimension)
The coordinates of the tool change position are
entered and displayed as the distance between the
machine datum and the point of reference on the
tool carrier. It is recommended that you move to the
tool change position and load the position with the
Take over position soft key.
