I have a 4525HT and have some tooling that share the same tool holder (Kaiser modular type) but the tooling is either too heavy or too large to be able to be put in the tool changer.
A program I am working on requires at least two tool changes using that tooling and as they share the same tool holder, I am thinking the easiest way to swap tools is to pause the program and swap the tool itself ... leaving the tool holder in the spindle.
The problem with doing that is the tools have different length offsets. Is it possible program a "null" tool change ... meaning it doesn't actually perform the change but the tool number and offsets are changed ??
