<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide technical means which enables a rapid setting of tool correction values (tool offset values) of a plurality of tools mounted on a cutter holder of a machine tool in regard to means for setting the tool correction values mounted on a cutter holder of a machine tool.SOLUTION: When an operation procedure of a cutter holder for automatically setting a tool correction value is registered in a controller for every tool set consisting of the combination of the type of a tool holder to be mounted on the cutter holder and the type of a tool to have a tool set designated, a corresponding operation procedure is called with an initial correction value serving as the argument. When a detection signal of a tool blade tip is received during execution of the operation procedure, a tool correction value about the axis of a direction of movement is calculated from the coordinates of the cutter holder in the direction of movement at that time and set in the controller.</p> |
