[0045] a: the operator completes loading and unloading of the tool disc at the stock bin;

[0046] b: the operator configures the tool type and quantity in the tool disc after replacement on the machine tool panel corresponding to the stock bin;

[0047] c: the machine tool system sends the tool quantity and type information input by the manual tool to the self-developed software;
