8.2 Importing tools into the tool list
You can input tools and their accompanying offset data directly into
the tool list or you can simply read-in existing tool data from outside of
tool management (see Sec. "Securing/reading-in tool/zero-point
data").
8.2.1 Creating a new tool
When you want to create a new tool, ShopTurn offers a range of
generally available tool types. The tool type determines what
geometry data you have to enter and how it is calculated.
Possible tool types
The rotary drill can be used for centric drilling and turning.
