Mazatrol tool data that does not match the pot

A Mazak lathe in Mazatrol has tool 3 as a grooving tool in the tool data and a turning tool in the turret. The program header looks right. The first groove attempt was a turn insert trying to plunge. Nobody was hurt. The insert is gone.

Stop and reconcile tool data to the turret before cycle start. Mazatrol will do what the tool data says the shape is. A turning insert described as a groove tool will plunge. The picture in the control has to match the pocket.

After a crash or a turret load, the data page is part of the setup, not paperwork. Touch the nose and confirm the type, the width, and the direction.

Label the holder. A grooving tool and a turning tool in similar holders are how this happens on a Friday.
