8.5 Loading/unloading a tool into/out of the magazine
You can unload tools in the magazine that you are not using at
present. ShopTurn speichert die Werkzeugdaten dann automatisch in
der Werkzeugliste außerhalb des Magazins. Should you want to use
the tool again later, simply load the tool with the tool data into the
corresponding magazine location again. Then the same tool data
does not have to be entered more than once.
Loading and unloading of tools into and out of magazine locations
must be enabled in a machine data code.
Please also refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
When loading, ShopTurn automatically opens an empty space where
you can load a tool. The magazine in which ShopTurn searches for an
empty location first is stored in a machine data code.
Please also refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
Also when loading, you can directly specify an empty magazine
location or define in which magazine ShopTurn should search for an
empty location.
If your machine has only one magazine, you simply need to enter the
location number you require when loading the tool, not the magazine
number.
If a spindle location is displayed in the tool list, you can also change a
tool directly into or out of the spindle. You can lock the loading and
unloading via machine data.
Please also refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
Select the "Tool list" softkey in the "Tools WOs" operating area.
Place the cursor on the tool that you want to load into the
magazine (if the tools are sorted according to magazine location
number you will find it at the end of the tool list).
Press the "Load" softkey.
The "Empty location" window appears. The "Location" field is
initialized with the number of the first empty magazine location.
Press the "OK" softkey to load the tool into the suggested
location.
