8 Tool Management
8.3 Startup in NCK
Example
Machine data for
activating tool
management
Default
8-74
Allocation of machine data for use with a dual gripper so that manual tools can
be applied even with a completely allocated magazine (30 locations):
18082=40; 40 tools (30 tools for the magazine + 10 tools
as manual tools)
18084=3; 1 magazine + 1 buffer magazine + 1 loading magazine
18086=35; 30 magazine locations + 3 buffers + 2 loading locations
18100=80; 80 cutting edges
Note
The machine data settings serve only to reserve memory; locations are not
assigned to the magazine, etc. until the configuration file is set up and loaded
(see Section 8.3.3 "Creating and Loading the Configuration File").
Modifying the "memory–influencing" machine data also reformats the
battery–backed RAM. Data must therefore be backed up in advance.
In addition, the following machine data must be set for activating the tool man-
agement:
MD 20310 Channel–specific activation of TM
MD 20320 Activation of tool life monitoring for the listed spindle
MD 22550 New tool offset for M function
MD 22560 M function for tool change
MD 22562 Error response for programmed tool change
Note
Bits 0–3 of MD 20310 $MC_TOOL_MANAGEMENT_MASK and MD 18080
$MN_MM_TOOL_MANAGEMENT_MASK must always be set identically.
For a detailed description of the NCK machine data of the tool management,
see the following chapter 8.3.2 "Description of NCK machine data for tool man-
agement".
