Hello we’ve trying to better integrate our 3rd party post processing application into NXCAM. Does any body know how to fire up a 3d party application directly after the creation of a CLSF file as pass its location within the Temp directory as a parameter. I don’t think I can use the event...
I’ve cobbled together a generic UGPOST/ISV lathe driver to give me the facility to use the simulations module within NX Cam which appears to work extremely well for the majority of our lathe configurations. The problem that I am having at the moment is with VTL’s with adjustable cross rails. I...
Paul,
We’ve been down this route. Believe it or not UG don’t offer must support in the area of TCL or customisation of the manufacturing output manager. There isn’t really any documentation and to be honest the UG applications chaps don’t really step out of the post builder arena, so you’re...
Hi Paul,
You probably know this already but shop docs, clsf output and UG post processing all rely on the manufacturing output manager, which uses TCL. For post processing you’ve got a nice front end call Post builder to give you a start with writing a UG post processor but generally even with...
I Posted a message recently about trying to interface ICAM post processor with NX2 and as a side line I would be interested to hear peoples views on POST-BUILDER. Is it up to the job?, How easy it is to use? And also most importantly, Can it easily support some of the advance machining...
I’m currently working on a project to interface NX2 CAM to our Post processing application ICAM Technologies CAM-POST. CAM-POST has a number of included interface kits, but we have written some very advanced Post Processors that require a lot of tooling parameters to be available within the...
I think this may give you what you’re after. You can export all of the tools whist in NX2 / Manufacturing by exporting the tool parameters. To do this go into shop documentation and within the list of choices, one of the items will export the tool parameters. This produces a text file of all...
