Introduction

In some special processes like grinding, it is necessary to correct permanently the length or the radius of the tool to compensate the wear.

The compensation of the wear depends on the moved distance. Additional is it possible to correct the wear of the tool by PLC.

The wear compensation is activated and deactivated from the NC program. The parameterization of the wear constant is possible both from the NC program and over preset parameters in the tool list. [TOOL]

Rapid movement blocks are assumed without wear.

It is presumed that the whole width of the lateral surface of the grinding disc is in contact.
