Overview
Tool management function oversize tools support is added to the tool management function.
The figure of an oversize tool can be defined freely, and the figure of each oversize tool is
registered. When an oversize tool is stored in a cartridge, interference with tools stored in
other pots is considered. This function is usable with cartridges of chain type and matrix
type.
Explanation
Usually, a tool, when stored in a cartridge, occupies one pot only. An oversize tool occupies
pots other than the position where the tool is stored. This point is taken into consideration
for tool management.
When the tool information #2 of the tool management data is set to 1, the tool is set as an
oversize tool.
・Tool information
Item Description
Data length 1byte (Flag data)
#2 BDT 0: Normal tool (N)
1: Oversize tool (B)
Oversize tools each having a different figure can be freely defined to form oversize tool
patterns through MDI input on the tool figure setting screen, G10 data input, or reading a file.
Up to 20 patterns can be registered. An identification number (hereinafter referred to as a
tool figure number) is assigned to each patterned figure, and a tool figure number suitable for
each tool figure is set in the tool management data.
・Tool geometry number (GNO)
Item Description
Data length 2byte
Valid data range 0 to 20
When a tool is registered in the cartridge management table, the figure of the tool is
determined from the tool figure number of the tool so that the tool can be registered only if
the tool does not interfere with other tools.
When using this function, set the type of cartridge with parameters. For the chain type, set a
pot start number and the number of pots with the conventional parameters. When using the
matrix type, use the same parameter as for the chain type to specify a pot start number, and
use the parameters for specifying the number of pots in the vertical direction (hereinafter
referred to as the number of rows) and the parameter for specifying the number of pots in the
horizontal direction (hereinafter referred to as the number of columns) to specify the number
of pots. As shown in the figure below, processing is performed, assuming that pot numbers
are assigned from the upper-left corner to the lower-right corner of the cartridge as viewed
when you face the front of the cartridge.
No tool can be stored in a way that causes interference with the outer frame of the cartridge.
