Lathe tool wear

A very good solution input tool wear into a tool table .
Can I suggest ?

for example
1.for T4 we have a correction 10004 = -0.100
2.change correction, now -0.070
3.10004 = -0.070
4.It would be better to show 10004 = -0.170
Is it possible to do it ?
What do you think about that question ?

yes :


M6 T#<tool>
G43 H#<tool> ##### OK

but :

O100 IF [#<wear> GT 10000]
G43.2 H#<wear> ##### ???
..I think it does not work : see picture, 10010 is not show !

Gmoccapy uses the standard glade tooledit widget!
IMHO that one is not very well designed and the wear offset handling can be done in a more user friendly way.

I am working on gmoccapy 3 and that one hopefully will include a tool table based on sqlite3 with much more options and many industrial features.

So just wait a few years till it is presentable?

Hallo Andi,

I am in close contact with Rene, we did already some work on that. We have a already SQL based tooltable, but there is still some way to go, as we would like to get rid also from the tool amount limit. If all that is done, and we are allowed to merge our patch to master, also the tooltable editor will be completely rewritten and can then be used as a normal glade widget.

I am trying also to get a Qt version of such a solution, as I am convinced, that some day we will have also Qt based GUI's.
