The following table shows the assignment of tool length components to geometry axes for all other tools (tool
types < 400 or > 599):
18.10.5 Tool type (SD42950 $SC_TOOL_LENGTH_TYPE)
Definition of the assignment between tool length components (length, wear and tool base dimension) and
geometry axes independent of tool type.
Setting data not equal to zero: (the default definition is applied)
A distinction is made between turning and grinding tools (tool types 400 to 599) and other tools (milling tools).
The value range is from 0 to 2. Any other value is interpreted as 0.
The assignment of tool length components is always independent of the actual tool type.
• Value = 1: Always as for milling tools
• Value = 2: Always as for turning tools
*) Each value not equal to 0, which is not equal to one of the six listed values, is evaluated as value
18.
Layer Length 1 Length 2 Length 3
*) Z Y X
18 Y X Z
19 X Z Y
-17 Z X Y
-18 Y Z X
-19 X Y Z
*) Each value not equal to 0, which is not equal to one of the six listed values, is evaluated as value
17.
Note
For representation in tables, it is assumed that geometry axes 1 to 3 are named X, Y, Z. The
axis order and not the axis identifier determines the assignment between a compensation
and an axis.
Three tool length components can be arranged on the 6 different types above.
