7.2 Additive offsets
7.2.1 Selecting additive offsets (DL)
Function
Additive offsets can be considered as process offsets that can be programmed in the
machining. They refer to the geometrical data of a cutting edge and are therefore a
component of tool cutting data.
Data of an additive offset are addressed using a DL number (DL: Locationdependent; offsets
regarding the location of use) and entered via the operator interface.
Application
Dimension errors caused be the location of use can be compensated using additive offsets.
Syntax
DL=<number>
Significance
DL
Command to activate an additive offset
<number>
The additive tool offset data to be activated is specified using the
<number>
parameter.
Note
The machine data is used to define the number of additive offsets and also activate them
(→ carefully observe the machine OEM's data!).
