Tool Nose Radius = TNR
Tool nose radius
• An offset feature used on turning center that slightly shifts the tool path for a round tip on an insert during multi-axis operation
• The X and Z axis of tool create a square point and most of tools for turning have radii
TNR
• X and Z tool offsets to the tool change• Size of the TNR Standard radii are: 1/64 or .01561/32 or .03123/64 or .0469
• Tool nose vector• The tool tip of single pointed tool has specific
location from the center of the TNR• The tool nose vector indicates this location to
the controller(P320)
TNR compensation
• G code activating TNR compensation is entered as a separate block in the program G41, G42
TNR
