Insert Thickness - When loading the tool, the insert thickness value specified on the Geometry tab in the ToolStore will automatically be passed to the toolchange dialog. The tool graphic in the EdgeCAM simulation will reflect the specified insert thickness.
Tool Graphic - The name of the .csv file to be used to represent the tool and shank geometry. Press the Browse button to search for existing user defined graphics files.
Holder Graphic - The name of the .csv file to be used to represent the holder for this tool. Press the Browse button to search for existing user defined graphics files.
Note: It is possible to load a .csv file with cutter/shank data as a holder and/or holder data as cutter graphics which will produce unwanted results in EdgeCAM. Please ensure that you always load an appropriate .csv file.
Holder Z/X/Y Offset - Specifies the offset distance from Shank CPL to Holder CPL. The use of the Y value will allow the holder graphic to be staggered in that direction from the shank.
