Mazak Mazatrol Nexus Control - Tool data boring bar tool holder question
Creating a tool in the tool library. Its a 1" Boring bar. Going through all the data and I come across the cell in the contents page to enter the tool holder type. The buttons are listed 1 through 4 however I don't know which to put in.
Looked in the manuals and didn't find anything yet except I understand there are four tool holder types for boring bars. Problem for me is there isn't correlation to the 1-4 option on the control.
Does it matter? Is this for the virtual machining features on the machine and it doesn't really matter?
Any help is appreciated!
