Tool specifying method

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To enable the usage of tool number in the part program for defining the machining information while to enable take-out control through T-code by storing the correspondence between the tool numbers and T-codes in a memory and outputting while converting the tool number into T-code. CONSTITUTION:In the converting process of tool number and T-code, the type, the profile dimension such as the diameter and the machining condition with said tool are recorded as a set in the tool data file structure recorded on a tape T2. In order to correspond T-codes with the tool numbers prior to read-in of tool data, the file structure of tool data recording area will select the tool number-T-code setting mode through switching of mode exchange switch 16 to function a key 15 thus to set the correspondence between T-codes and the tool numbers. Then the tool data corresponding with the tool number set in said tool data memory area is read out and stored in said area thus to arrange the data concerning only to the tool contained in the tool magazine.
